too much size

#that'sWhatSheSaid

All about the signature over the pen size.

 

[scotihawk]

Stirtz is so rattled needing to do everything himself against a Top5/10 team, in their house.

He's looked very un-All American tonight.

Is the game over??...JFC...

 

[scotihawk]

I'm not sure what everyone expected but this is about par for the course for a mvc team on the road at a top 10 opponent.

Here come the fair weather comments...

I mean he isn’t wrong. That’s what this team is, a veteran MVC team. Good enough for mid big ten. But far from elite.

 

[Rambler Hawk]

Peacock should really do away with Sports…

 

[QChawks]

Fran won in East Lansing in his last game there

just sayin

 

[Hawksfor3]

Good learning experience tonight.

B10 VS MVC

 

[DTP2]

Fire Brian Ferentz.

 

[Doctor Hawktagonapus]

How many times are we going to tip the rebound to MSU?

 

[longliveCS40]

Stop Stirtz and you beat Iowa. Nothing we didn't already know.

 

[HawkBall23]

Used to be a time a player couldn't react wildly to foul calls like that Wojcik has done at least twice now ..........

 

[DTP2]

Who was the #2 guy on Drake?

 

[Mitch122_rivals]

T up #10. Insane behavior jumping around like that.

 

[Just-Some-Dude]

Please dont be another Lickliter era

 

[Ozzie89]

Stirtz getting baptized. Cannot be this passive in the Big Ten. This isn’t Illinois State

 

[hawkeyewx]

Rebounds are 30-15 MSU
Pts in the paint are 32-12 MSU

Please keep religion out of the game thread.

Whining little beach…would be a good fit at Wisconsin…

 

[scotihawk]

*****, whine. Rinse and repeat.

New must punchable face

 

[Demger]

On a side note..... let's ditch the blue shoes already.

 

[HawkBall23]

I will be doing something I never usually do ........ and that's rooting for Duke this weekend.

 

[HawksRule25]

#1 Purdue leads Rutgers 30-19 w/3:33 left 1st half. FS1.

 

[DTP2]

99 for 100 from the line.

 

[2212hawk2]

Walking the ball up, down 20. Guess they are just going to concede.

 

[Skydog0784a!]

Rebounds are 30-15 MSU
Pts in the paint are 32-12 MSU

This is the major difference in the game.

 

[Jonesy5960]

It’s that way every year. Seems like we’re always starting every season 0-2 in conference play.

Yeah, IMO, this team is really going to struggle offensively this year against B1G opponents. The offense is very stagnant and aside from Stirtz and Koch, everyone else looks afraid to shoot. The last 3 games including tonight the FG% is 43, 40, and 33. That's not going to get it done in this league and for all of the talk about efficiency, that's not very efficient.

Please dont be another Lickliter era

if we don’t get the recruits it just might be. I keep saying it, but Fran was able to overachieve here.

 

[biggreydogs_rivals]

Optimistic we can make the dance

 

[airhawk]

This is the major difference in the game.

Genius

 

[wilson reborn]

Rebounds are 30-15 MSU
Pts in the paint are 32-12 MSU

Yeah those are really bad stats. First game I’ve watched, this could be a long year

 

[2212hawk2]

Good learning experience tonight.

Need to order some bigger weights for next summer’s workouts!

 

[longliveCS40]

Please keep religion out of the game thread.

In the name of the J.R. Koch, the Cooper Koch, and the holy spirit.

 

[Hawk48]

Not sure what some of you expected, but Iowa is a work in progress. MSU is very seasoned and good team on their house Iowa was/is intimidated, not surprising.

 

[Rambler Hawk]

Optimistic we can make the dance

Yup, didn’t sparty just trounce a pretty good NC team anyway?

 

[Hawksfor3]

We only get Sparty once. Let's regroup and flush this one.

 

[UIAlumFireFighter]

Just checked the score: Damnit Iowa!?

Don’t expect to win there but get blown out? No bueno.

 

[BioHawk2]

Welp, welcome to the Big 10 kids. This team looked every bit scared to death out there tonight. They have a lot of growing up to do if they want to compete in this league. I guess we'll get to see if they can do it. It's hard to imagine they will get dominated and completely taken out of their game by the crowd and Izzo than they did tonight. Hopefully they learn from this, get mentally tougher, and have better showings in all their games in the future. Playing on the road is tough and it broke them tonight.
