    Iowa Will Do Nothing in The Big Dance

    Lotta teams are front runners these days, but Iowa loves it. They may win this tourney, but they will fold as soon as they feel pressure. Their numbers over the last 40 days suggest Elite Eight, but won’t happen, prob not even close.

    ‘White teams’ have traditionally done very well in the tourney, from an overachieving standpoint. But if you are saying things have ‘changed’ since BLM riots of 2020, maybe I believe that…

    They never really did anything anyways. Didn't the big 10 suck last tournament as a whole and they were supposed to be so good?

    Iowa football was overrated so the basketball team is probably not that good either.

    I started the thread because I was annoyed that i know how this will go with this team. They Have a great chance to win this tourney, as mentioned in OP, but Murray will disappoint in the tourney. I see this kind of player before

    They are front runners. They extend leads, they don’t come back. The only team I see them coming back against in this tourney ( if they fall behind) is MSU.

    Don’t mind me, I’m just griping. I took Iowa in some big tourney futures 4 weeks ago, and it seems like they’ve won every game since almost. They’ve got this game today. Public don’t like them. Maybe pub takes them tomorrow and they lose…

    Only listen to me on occasions where I really affirm someone’s play pregame, like yesterday with Uncle Ned and the Nets.

    Btw, I had Kalina and Faro in tennis. No comebacks; only choke jobs for my teams

    Was watching score on my phone. Rutgers somehow covered 2nd half. Very happy, but how. Seemed like they got 2 buckets in the last 30 seconds without fouling. Steals, I assume.

    Well, hmm, I've got two hooks baited up to snag some kind of championship.
    A 75/1 and a 40/1, the most recent.
    Careful what you don't ask for.

    I don't know, but I heard whitefish are very tasty and they play a hot game of underwater basketball, too.

    Just looked at play-by-play. Iowa had the ball up 14 with 31 seconds left. They could run the clock out. But they turned it over not once but twice, both leading to layups. Amazing.

    I bet the over in that game so I paid attention.
    I thought they were left for dead, even late in the 2H.
    What did impress me was the fact they came back and won that game.
    I'm not sure if it was due more to a major Hoosier gag job, or Iowa's intestinal fortitude.
    Or a combination of thereof.

    Know this, Iowa had no business winning that game.

    Careful, Iowa turns out the best NCAA grapplers in the country.
    They take their wrestling as serious as Indiana takes their basketball.

    Ever been to Kosciusko County, Indiana?
    Talk about Hicksville.
    They could murder you, bury you in a plot anywhere in the tens of thousands of farm acreage outside Amish country there it'll take a team of detectives and a decade to find your body.

    Friendly people the Hoosiers are, just an odd lot they are.

    Iowa equals a majority of white people equals a great state.

    End of discussion. Iowa City possibly the best place to live minus the cold weather.

    Iowa City had a bunch of blacks move in from Chicago and now that area is terrible and schools going down too, crime up.

    Met some great guys, mostly senior men with some class, back 55 + years ago. Mason City, very close to the "The day the music died."
    Probably 5 miles from my sister's home?
    Damn photos will stick without the hs.
