OT: Michigan State/Iowa

[bac2therac]

Sparty was up 11-5 and then Iowa went on a 22-2 run to go up 27-13

Sparty has been trying to chip away but its still 37-30 at halftime

I forget does an Iowa loss punch our ticket?

Yes
If they win then a Maryland win over northwestern is the next thing we need

Officials are bad.

 

[RUChoppin]

Officials are bad.

That's becoming a universal truth

 

[bac2therac]

Sparty now within 1 with 10 minutes to play

 

[PiscatawayMike]

MSU now leads, 64-60, with 8 minutes left.

 

[RuSnp]

MSU feels like a team that will lose to a 14/15 seed.

 

[Pdabs]

Carrs energy.

 

[BillyC80]

Officials are bad.

Watching objectively without being fan of either team, it’s easy to see how one team, in this case Iowa, can truly get favorable calls (and no-calls) from the refs. So many obvious misses by officials in this game.

 

[BillyC80]

MSU up by 10 now, what a turnaround.

 

[Pdabs]

Fun game to watch. Really see the passion and the will to win from MSU. Dudes talking to each other, encouraging one another. Something I haven’t seen from RU this year. No true leader. Nobody players look to when things are not looking good.

 

[biazza38]

Woooo
Can’t believe this is where we are but phew

 

[bac2therac]

Sparty on 66-37 run up 81-64 now...this one is over

 

[Scarlet Blind_rivals]

[RUJMM78]

Iowa no show in the second half.Michigan State wins regular season B1G Ten Championship.

[PiscatawayMike]

Indy...

 

[bac2therac]

Is this Fran's final game at Carver?

 

[Pdabs]

Looks like Iowa/Nebraska for final spot on Sunday. I think with a win RU takes 11th.

 

[RUChoppin]

Last shot to best the spread... not in time.

 

[RUJMM78]

Thank goodness there are so many lousy teams in the B1G Ten.

 

[PiscatawayMike]

Last shot to best the spread... not in time.

Had to review that final shot. Ref called it good, but a split second too late.

 

[RUChoppin]

Had to review that final shot. Ref called it good, but a split second too late.

Everyone with Michigan -6.5 let out a sigh of relief

 

[G- RUnit]

Is that a good beat or a bad beat for Iowa fans?

[RUJMM78]

Its hilarious trying to express some humor after watching a miserable season.

 

[ScarletDave]

How do Iowa fans feel? It wont feel like the Big Ten tournament without them. I’m sure they are so happy to have added these new PAC teams, now Fran wont even be invited to the Big Ten tourney. Their fans always travelled well too. Wild times

 

[PiscatawayMike]

Is this Fran's final game at Carver?

Fran will:

1. Retire (he's 65)
2. Stay (not fired)
3. Get fired and become the new LaSalle coach

I think he stays, but it would not surprise me if one of the other possibilities occur.

 

[RUJMM78]

The addition of the four west coast teams has made every coaches job more difficult. Parity/mediocrity will become more common in the B1G Ten.It will be a real challenge to win 20 games.

We were both wrong. The answer is 3 (Penn instead of LaSalle; the city was correct.)
