And therein lies the difference between the two fan bases:

The Illini fans I know get home, take off their Brooks Brothers suits and change into something more comfortable to watch their team play.

Iowa fans wouldn’t know a suit if they were given one for Christmas and consider a sweatshirt with a chicken head imprinted upon it as high fashion.


Tick tock, dirt balls

OSU possibly in talks with Dusty May. Will be interesting to see what IU does. If they completely shit the bed do they try to beat OSU to the punch? Have to think he's on IUs radar.

I figure they get Miller.

Didn’t know Brooks sold orange polyester.

I can't wait for Saturday....why you ask?

I grew up on the Mississippi, right across from Illinois.

2 hours and 30 mins from Chicago. And growing up, in God's country, we hate those guys. Especially in basketball.

But it's my favorite basketball rival. I just hate Wisconsin, all the way around. But Illinois is special.

We have a chance to play our way in, and running over Illinois twice, is going to be so sweet.

The Big 10 scheduling did one thing right, Iowa and Illinois at the end.

Watch and learn

I can't be more pissed off. First off, Indiana owns us in men and women's basketball.

Second, she went for the record at home, vs an outright title.

Third, OSU is going to win the league.


Greatest scorer ever, but don't hold the true crowns


Ughhhhhhhhhhhhh
That scoring title move showed true colors

Don’t despair. I can easily see Iowa making the Final Four. Perhaps then your nerves will be soothed.

The guy that averages more ppg than IU’s two starting guards combined would help them win more games.

This wasn’t hard to see in the off season and it’s even easier to see now.
More ppg on a team that's won 8 games a zero conference games, worse than Indiana. Again he's not what's missing. People forget how bad he was last year.

He shot 37% from 3 last year. He’s not the only missing piece but a shooter would’ve helped you this year.

He wasn't good. Even with xj out most of the year he still couldn't get more pt than Galloway, had worse numbers than Galloway. He's not a guy who would have done anything meaningful to make these team more than it is. They'd still be floundering. He was a flounderer himself

He’s doing it on 50/40/90 splits.

Meanwhile IU is playing a little boy that takes 2 shots a game as a starter.

If Tamar bates is what IUs missing they're not that far off. I'm honestly shocked people are trying to die on the Tamar Bates hill.

Bad news for Iowa, Indiana and Rutgers fans. You were officially eliminated from B1G title contention last night.

Maybe next year will be your year.

Tamar Bates is playing so well they've gone 1-16 since he's been the starter. The lone win against 336th ranked Kenpom team.

What’s awesome is we should be in contention for the title next year even with Edey off to the league lol.
