*Official* 2017-2018 B1G In-Season Thread

If season ended today going off of conference games only my first team all B1G would be

Isaac Haas
Keita Bates Diop (obvious PoTY who should be consensus PoTY if voters arent braindead)
Juwan Morgan
Jaren Jackson JR
Carsen Edwards

2Nd Team
Ethan Happ
Bridges
Wagner
Dakota Mathias
Anthony Cowan

Penn St guard gets screwed I guess. Vincent Edwards gets screwed I guess palmer gets screwed I guess.

This season is ****ing hard to pick 10 players.
Miles has to be on 1st team. Especially with his stats in Big Ten play.
 
@ the 1:36 mark Iowa finally gets to shoot a FT and now with :36 left they reach the bonus OSU has 12 FT's, some century Iowa will get some home cookin

I doubt it. It's like every official hates Fran so we don't get very many calls. Exhibit A: Cook had 2 bogus fouls in the 1st half that forced him to the bench for 7:00
 
Man, tough week for Purdue. Damn close to still being undefeated in the B1G. Props to KBD and Bridges for making the big plays. That's why they are the two most talented players in the conference.

I can't help but wonder how it would have played out had Vince Edwards not been sick last week. He still looks like he doesn't have his legs. In the five games prior to his projectile vomiting, he was 41-64 from the floor and 13-26 from three. In the four games since, he is 15-45 and 3-15.

to add to this Garza should be on the All BT FR team

He makes strange selections pretty regularly. Not sure how Vince and Miles aren't first team. I'd go:

Bridges
V Edwards
Bates-Diop
C Edwards
? Could be any of Happ, Morgan, Palmer or Haas

Garza and Cook keep getting mugged with no calls but let a Iowa player touch a OSU player and its a automatic foul,

this is why Iowa does not try to be aggressive on defense as it seems like they will be hit with a foul for even trying.
 
I sometimes wish that KF would loan him a couple 6'7 OL to help out in this mugging style of BB that teams are using against Iowa,
Jackson 6'7 325 lb PF sounds just about right, even 6'5 275 DE Epenesa who was a very good BB player in his own right,

or there is 6'8 285 lb DT Matt Nelson another BB player in HS

You’re down by 30 not even FTs would have kept you in this game.

Never thought I would say this but thank God there are only 18 more days until the end of the Iowa basketball season

19 days.

Whether good or bad, Iowa always loses on Thursday of the Big Ten Tournament.

Hawks will pull out the win in the 11/14 or 12/13 matchup.

when they call fouls on the other teams players they don't get to push, shove and mug, Cook and Garza both picked up 2 quick fouls taking them out of the game. funny how those 2 stayed out of foul trouble vs MSU.
WHEN EVER the ball went inside to Garza or Cook they were hacked with no calls while the OSU players were credited with blocks,

shocking Iowa shoots FT's when the game is well in hand. even when Kriener got into the game he was called for 2 fouls in 1 minute of play.

Do you think you guys would have won today if those you mentioned were called?

Embarrassing
 
Penn St with 16,000 screaming fans in the Bryce Jordan Center. Great environment tonight, but it's for wrestling. Respect to the grapplers for getting them in the stands though.

Iowa will not fire a coach that won 20+ games in 4 straight seasons and had 6 straight winning seasons till this season. the only BT Coach that can claim that is Izzo of MSU,

SO why fire him over just 1 bad season in 7 seasons?

Spencer Lee is a machine for Iowa. Picked up his 5th pin of the year. Still undefeated for Iowa

At some point it's about winning games, not recruits you have coming in. Many teams have done it before. Thing is, I don't know who we could get so I don't know if it's worth it

does this mean that the only thing that matters to you is BT Championships and trips to the FF.

or would you prefer to have Lick back he did have a good defense. but he only won 15 BT games in 3 seasons.
