    “This team has something”

    You have a point but I am absolutely not signing up for losing in heartbreaking fashion in multiple big games like that again. Last season was entertaining but ultimately brutal.

    Iowa -11.5 vs Iowa State

    ISU athletics are spiraling down the drain. Kirk doesn’t have many more of these games left. Iowa by at least 30.

    College basketball free agency in full swing.

    Or maybe not even a headline at all; it would just be assumed. Imagine being told 15 years ago that this was going to be the future of college athletics. I probably would've given up on it, but I guess the transition to this point has been gradual enough that I'm still begrudgingly, though less...

    *****2026-27 Transfer Portal News*****

    I think the tale on Deal transferring is obvious when you look at the box score of our last game: 4 minutes played to Stremlow’s 49. Now, Stremlow was objectively better down the stretch and earned the staring role. But it’s easy to see why Deal may have felt aggrieved. And with most of our...

    *****Virginia vs Iowa NCAAT Game Thread*****

    Don’t understand wanting to pin this on Jensen when we shot that poorly. Team was mentally broken after the UCLA beatdown and evidently couldn’t recover. Maybe a master motivator could have gotten the team confident again but I have a hard time calling this mostly a problem of poor coaching.

    Only needed him to make just a single one of those threes to be honest. That’s what hurts.

    *****FDU vs Iowa NCAAT Game Thread*****

    I’d normally be one to say the same thing but this was almost an unprecedented, monumental, unfathomable upset, the type that NEVER happens in the sport of women’s college basketball, which has zero parity. There cannot be an overreaction to this result. At least this once.

    ESPN Bracketology (as of Mar 14): IOWA projected as a 9 Seed. Bracket Matrix (as of Mar 13) has IOWA as a 9 seed (consensus of 121 bracketologists)

    I don't know if this is the year to perseverate about the 8/9 spot. The 1 seeds don't strike much more fear in me than the 2 seeds do.

    Top 16 Seeds Reveal

    Would they do the same for Vandy though, not putting them in with Texas? If we go “par” and lose to UCLA in the title game, I could see us getting the 2 opposite Texas. Dangerous thing though is the potential matchup with Michigan. If Michigan wins, recency bias is almost certainly going to...

    *****Illinois vs Iowa Game Thread*****

    As long as the refs stop calling blocks charges and Illinois misses a damn three pointer, we’ve got this.

    *****Iowa vs Wisconsin Game Thread*****

    I went back and counted and Boyd took 7 full steps before dribbling there a couple possessions ago.

    Parker Sutherland

    Probably. Most common reason for this sort of thing, sudden death in an athlete, is undiagnosed hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Basically where you have an enlarged heart for genetic reasons which messes with the electrical conduction of the heart in a way that can lead to a fatal arrhythmia...

    Keep stacking these impressive wins a 1 seed should be on horizon

    Relax, man. I don't think any of us are trying to diminish our prior teams' accomplishments. I made an honest mistake about the 2022 title going to OSU (who beat us head-to-head and were the #1 seed in the BTT) rather than being shared like it was. But yes I wish we had more than just one...

    Keep stacking these impressive wins a 1 seed should be on horizon

    Thanks for the correction. Looks like we shared it with OSU. For some reason I thought we lost out on a tiebreaker because they beat us. And I'm not trying to be negative towards the 2022 and 2023 teams at all. I don't think this team is better, or likely to do better, than the those two teams...

    Keep stacking these impressive wins a 1 seed should be on horizon

    1 seed would be nice. But a 2 or 3 outside of UConn's region wouldn't be much worse. Even bigger part of this win streak is that we're still in contention for the Big Ten regular season title. Something we couldn't even do in the CC years.
