*****Ohio St vs Iowa Game Thread*****

[QChawks]

1pm on the ‘Cock and NBCSN (YTTV)
Iowa -4.5
O/U 145.5

After an rollercoaster win at Maryland the Hawkeyes (17-2, 8-0) host another top-25 showdown against No. 11 Ohio State (18-2, 7-1).

The buckeyes have been on a tear winning 9 straight which includes roads wins at Illinois, TCU, and Maryland. Like the hawks, they were blown out by UCONN but they only lost to UCLA by 7 pts.

We really need Carver rocking today, this has all the signs of an epic battle. Hawks pull it out late to win 71-67

Ohio State has been crushing it on the recruiting trail. I am not surprised by their level of success at all.

 

[Iowameat]

Go Hawks!

 

[Whtnhawk]

They press relentlessly. Ball handling and minimizing TO's will the difference.

 

[HawkFan10]

this is going to be a tough one for Iowa even at home i don't like their chances ....OSU playing well and presses the crap out of teams and we don't handle presses real well

Iowa handles the press fine. Inbound passes and post feeds are another issue altogether.

 

[Hawk14]

Is inbounding the ball at full court not a major part of a teams press offense?

 

[KuwaitHawk]

Got to have a LOUD CHA today.

Last was a different story, they were terrible against the press. Chit chat has helped tremendously this year with it

 

[nu2u]

If McGuff shows up drunk I like our chances.

Yeah. Chit chat is quick with great handles.

I'm sure the Buckeyes traveled in yesterday before thing got bad over here. 12 -18" when this is all done. Doubt they'll be traveling back anytime soon.

Columbus, Ohio is getting 12 to 18 inches of snow?

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

Yeah. Chit chat is quick with great handles.

So is their soph point Cambridge and she put up a 40+ point game the other day...

 

[QChawks]

They got hammered

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

Is that the girl who played at S Carolina last couple of seasons or her sister?

 

[r_desihawk]

wow i didn't realize osu was such a powerhouse this year

 

[Manfredi]

Chloe Kitts is at South Carolina...out for the year I think.

Especially inbounding after an opponent’s make. Hopefully start moving along baseline!

 

[Whtnhawk]

Ava goes for 38 this afternoon.

 

[GoB1G]

Is Ryan Day’s twin brother still coaching the OSU women?

 

[Franisdaman]

They got hammered

Wow. Thank you for posting this.

And parts of the south got freezing rain; you don't wanna mess around with that, either.

 

[scotihawk]

Is that the girl who played at S Carolina last couple of seasons or her sister?

Yes. Sister..

 

[WDSMHawk]

Please be okay Taylor

 

[AFM22]

Guess we’re about to see what we can do without McCabe

 

[Mitch122_rivals]

Worst start imaginable. Never seen a press before? I might not watch this for long.

 

[Phat Stax]

I don't think having Hannah inbound against pressure is the right move, Jan.

 

[Iowameat]

We will have to Deal with it!

 

[Donny 2.0]

Looks like an ACL.

 

[HawkFan10]

Yeah and I was told they handle the presss just fine.

 

[Tom Paris]

That McCabe injury looked bad. Non contact knee.

basketball has an officiating problem
