Lol….he’s better at hoops than at picking fights after the bars close. This is a Rutgers - iowa thing, try to stay on topic.

Why should I?

 

[Rubrum_Magnus_Virtus]

And the sky is blue

Just teasing Borden, refs do miss calss that favor both teams every game, just the Sparty fan was making it sound like the refs were against them, when they were missing calls for MD as well..

The refs inconsistency really only matters in the last 2-3 minutes of a close game. It’s painful to watch the refs swallow the whistle on calls they’ve been making all day or start blowing the whistle on plays they’ve been making all day in the last 2-3 minutes.

 

[Rubrum_Magnus_Virtus]

Why should I?

Iowa fans should stick to what’s happening on the court, calling out players for looks as an iowa fan is hilarious, iowa is world class in ugly players both men and “women”….lol….

All the metrics say UM should be in, but idk. 8th in the conference. 5-10 in quad 1 games. Eh. Could go either way

 

[Rubrum_Magnus_Virtus]

Did he say something to get a T, or just look at the ref with a mean face??

 

[pig1960]

Fvck every poster in this thread. I told you bitches. We will thrash any team in the Big 10.

Thrash? Swinging from IUs nutsack has you talking like a pussy. 😂

 

[ConqueringHero]

Could go either way. Will come down to how much they value SOS. UM played 3 Q4 games total when most other team plays at least 6+

Michigan’s conference record was 1 game back of Rutgers/Iowa/OSU and tied with MSU and it was brutal compared to the draw of some other teams.

 

[jwardelt]

Was barely recruited. @jwardelt made fun of Iowa for the longest time. Walk on level recruits.

Still making fun of you clowns.

 

[pig1960]

Jbo didn’t get his ass kicked - he was “thrashing” that guy’s fist with his face. 😂

 

[Rubrum_Magnus_Virtus]

Lol…..

 

[SpartyGotSix]

Brutal officiating.

 

[CO_hawk]

I love Rutgers players, hope no ill will is generated during this game.

 

[IUBtown]

Mike Woodson already with more BTT wins than Archie Miller had in 4 years and first time they've won 2 since 2003. Crazy.

 

[Rubrum_Magnus_Virtus]

Brutal officiating.

It may have been a foul on Harper, the problem is the exact same play will happen again soon and it’ll be a no call. Just garbage.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

It is a little funny that the only thing you can do is bring ugly jokes and complain about the officials......

 

[IUBtown]

Keep this within 10 Rutgers and help me build my balance for the tournament

Played more quad 1 games but won less. It will come down to what they like more.

 

[cmore79]

I love Perkins.

 

[cmore79]

There’s a shocker. Mulcahey.

 

[SpartyGotSix]

I want to see a showdown between Fran and Juwan. Would be so epic. The two biggest tools in coaching. Throw Harbaugh in for the hell of it too.

 

[CO_hawk]

Refs got our back! Feels good.

 

[SIhoosier26]

Mike Woodson already with more BTT wins than Archie Miller had in 4 years and first time they've won 2 since 2003. Crazy.

Archie might be the biggest "dud" hire in IU's history. He did absolutely nothing memorable in 4 years.

 

[boilerzz]

Life father, like son!

 

[ConvenientParking]

Keegan Murray is now the new single season Hawkeye scoring champ.

I think they tend to lump Q3 and Q4 together. Playing mostly Q3 opponents and few Q4 opponents in the non-conference is a great way to game the SOS metric. But a tourney team should take care of business in both quads every time.

 

[cmore79]

S and C coach!?! ELL. OH. ELL.

 

[Rubrum_Magnus_Virtus]

This result suits me fine. I’d like to see iowa make it to the championship game and then lose by 39…..having any iowa team make it to the cusp of greatness before flaming out never gets old.

 

[SpartyGotSix]

Bo Boroski has a 3 inch penis.

 

[bMORE607]

Bo Boroski has a 3 inch penis.

That big huh? I expected him to have a micro penis.

 

[ConqueringHero]

Can’t believe UM beat Iowa at Iowa

 

[Rubrum_Magnus_Virtus]

Lol…you conveniently missed all the other posts bitching about the refs….I know you’re desperate for my approval and attention…..now if my iowa bitch from Soundoff stalks me over here, my day will be complete. Just wait for it……

 

[hawkit3113]

Suck our "24 wins" dick

 

[Gumbo02]

There's like 25 teams who can say they are undefeated in the Q3/Q4. Gotta find 20 other at large somehow...

 

[Gumbo02]

Not saying they will go the national title game, but Iowa has some 2018 Michigan to them with the way they have been playing the last month.

 

[Chicubsfan24]

Congrats to the Purdue fans that bogeyman North Texas is likely out of the field after losing a game in which they scored 36 points today. That would be close to a bid steal in CUSA, but I think N Texas is going to finish just outside an at large bid.

Mostly true.. but Michigan also only played 7 Q3 games. It wasn’t really gaming the system. They played a crazy hard schedule and COVID cancelled one of their cupcake buy-games.

UM played only 10 total Q3/4 games and lost 1 (home to Minny)

Rutgers played 12 and lost 3 (to dogshit teams)

Some other bubble teams are absurd tho.
ND played 17 and lost 1.
Miami played 17 and lost 3.
Wake played 21 and lost 2.

If the B1G teams are seeded well and all/mostly make it it’s a good thing.. if they are under seeded and snubbed it may be time to consider moving away from the 20 game conference schedule.

 

[RutgHoops]

GG @hawkit3113 @EvilMonkeyInTheCloset @ConvenientParking. Not many teams hang 84 on us. Well done. Going to be a sweaty Sunday for Rutgers fans.

Agree. They have that “Good offensive team finally figures out how to play some defense” vibe.

Best of luck Sunday and the rest of March.
