*****UCLA vs Iowa Game Thread*****

[HawkBall23]

Holding an upper mid-tier B1G team to 20 or less at halftime ........

That's some fricking DEFENSE, ya'll!

 

[Roncuba65]

It's so different watching this team play vs Fran's teams. You see more good defense played in a few minutes than you saw entire seasons.

FIFY

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

That.... Would be a carry.

Call that sh*t

 

[Jayb01]

57-24 was last years halftime score against UCLA. Just a reminder.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Cronin down to his vest.

 

[Franisdaman]

its still kinda crazy to me that UCLA is in the B1G

 

[Jonesy5960]

Great half. Terrible ending.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Damn I was hoping to hold them under 20.

 

[Iowameat]

I like this team.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

BS.

Where's the contact?

[HawkBall23]

Maybe my B&G glasses' subscription needs updating, but it seems like Dent is traveling or carrying the ball ALL the freaking time.

 

[herkhatescy2]

BS.

They're still looking.

 

[HawksRule25]

Iowa miss and UCLA run out to get a 2 and 1 at the buzzer. Still a great half by Iowa. Iowa leads 40-22 after 20 minutes.

 

[WestCoastHawkI]

Well that was a tough 5 point swing

 

[2D]

Hawks need to figure out how to properly end a half.

He is... But carrying is allowed in basketball now.

 

[Franisdaman]

last time Iowa blew a 16 pt or bigger lead at half time was in 1987!!!

 

[Hawksfor3]

18-4 we lead in bench points. Love to see it.

 

[HawkBall23]

18-pt lead is an 18-pt lead at halftime .......

but kind of a downer when they were on the verge of going up 30 a couple of game minutes ago.

 

[herkhatescy2]

Ya just had to mention that didn't you.

 

[Hawksfor3]

That.... Would be a carry.

Call that sh*t

 

[JerseyCityHawk]

Who’s number 55 for UCLA? He looks like an old school porn star with that goofy mustache

 

[Hawkfan_08*]

Not a good end of the half but all gravy right now.

 

[JerseyCityHawk]

I like this team.

I second that

 

[JerseyCityHawk]

Let’s hope that doesn’t repeat itself

 

[RoseBowlorBust]

How do we sound on tv?

 

[Hawksfor3]

Clark. But not this one.

 

[herkhatescy2]

How do we sound on tv?

Loud.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

How do we sound on tv?

Excellent. Looking forward to some more LOUD defensive stands

 

[Buffalo43]

Iowa miss and UCLA run out to get a 2 and 1 at the buzzer. Still a great half by Iowa. Iowa leads 40-22 after 20 minutes.

Cooper had a bunny there

 

[HawksRule25]

Excellent. Looking forward to some more LOUD defensive stands

 

[Buffalo43]

Need Cooper to hit some shots in 2nd half

 

[RoseBowlorBust]

Excellent. Looking forward to some more LOUD defensive stands

 

[Hawk-A-Doodle-Doo]

Great half. Terrible ending.

Yeah. Outstanding in most respects....but the past few games it appears they've caught a nagging case of Sh-tty End of First Half Disease from the football team.

 

[DukeSlater]

The halftime show on TV was, predictably, all about making excuses for UCLA because they haven't played for ten days. LOL

The bullshitt for the blue bloods never ends, no matter what the reality is. I'm pretty tired of it. Please, Hawkeyes, drill 'em even worse in the second half and win this thing by 30 or so. It would make a nice flight home for the boys from Hollywood.

 

[HawkBall23]

How do we sound on tv?

Loud and engaged.

 

[Buffalo43]

Didn't know Bruins have not played in 10 days

 

[Rambler Hawk]

I second that

Seems like Iowa basketball has always had a few ‘weak links’ on their rosters….having said that, I am really struggling to name one on this team!

That's on them for such a long layoff
