[The Galloping Ghost]

I hate Iowa. You hate Iowa. We all hate Iowa. But hear me out. I love Illinois more than I hate everyone in the B1G combined. If the freaking Hawkeyes can do us a favor here and make our road easier, I'll take it. I want this Natty more than anything. You should, too.

 

[PasadenaIllini]

That's 4 on Chenyelu. Not smart defense on his part at all.

 

[PNWIllini]

Moment of recognition for the SU Redhawks of the WCC who battled but lost to Auburn in the NIT 91-85.

R U watching the game, Iowa is up 9, make that 12.

My post was intentional…
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

To be honest, I'm not all that worried about playing Florida.

I get it. I understand all of that. I'm just not able to overcome the basest instincts in my reptilian brain that have programed me to hate Iowa under all circumstances.

 

[illiniguy24]

My mind is in a pretzel thinking about playing Iowa or Nebby in the elite 8. Or god forbid one of them beating Houston

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Seems as though Iowa does best without me watching…

 

[UCantHideYer]

Fran off at Penn. Sons gone. I can stay at BigTen homer and cheer for Iowa. Hate them again next season.
Refs certainly not helping Iowa

Feels like Iowa just doesn’t have the horses to pull this off. We’ll see

Well...I don't hate Iowa...or Indiana...or Wisconsin. I truly do not hate any other schools and their programs. But there is definitely a ladder of respect that is earned. All athletes...or rather most....or worthy of respect as opponents and ooaches who make winning hard but worthwhile. They are no different than the schools whose teams I pull to win. They play hard, fair, and try to play their best.

That said, it goes without saying that it is OK to join me in hating all things Michigan....the slimiest of all slime balls. Play on.

That'll happen when Florida miss about a dozen layups.

UVA missing about a dozen layups was a big part of why they lost to Tennessee.

 

[Illiniam1984]

Iowa making it farther in the tourney than Illinois is a possibility just saying. Things happen but that’s not good.

 

[PasadenaIllini]

Is Bruce Weber coaching Iowa on offense right now?

 

[rdk573]

Iowa milking the clock now. Not good

 

[BrimfieldBomber]

Iowa is crapping down their leg right now

They cant finish inside.

 

[TheodoreRex]

Iowa taking the air out of the ball way too soon. Going to have to respond and quickly!

 

[Retro62]

Iowa’s good big man is on the bench, the guy they have in now is not up to the task.

 

[jumpingjack]

So Satan has no idea who Eminem is.
That tracks.

 

[eas23]

Florida might win this game by double digits.

[Bucktown]

Iowa reverting to the mean and trying not to lose instead of trying to win.

 

[PasadenaIllini]

Florida might win this game by double digits.

Or they might not.
