    Anyone interested in debating "Pretenders"? How 'bout when the lights are on?

    In the past weeks you start a thread calling the team pretenders, call them over achievers, a "toilet swirl", and are always the first poster to point out how smart you were in being the first to see the teams struggles...yeah, that's damned supportive. I bet the players are glad you are such a...

    So..

    can If you're asking for opinions, I think the team is kind of worn down right now. Three or four individual players a little more so than the rest physically, but also think the whole team might be a little worn out mentally also. We'll see how things look after this coming week off. It MIGHT...

    #4 Iowa @ Penn St. Gameday Thread

    All you say is true, but I don't think one loss is a guarantee that we'll never win another game all year. C'mon. Everyone here LOVED PSU when the beat Indiana a couple games back. They played out their ***es tonight, had about 4 players have career games, and took us out also. Reality is two...

    Anyone interested in debating "Pretenders"? How 'bout when the lights are on?

    Why do you revel in ragging on this team so much? Why are you even here?

    #4 Iowa @ Penn St. Gameday Thread

    Agree. I'll take a 1 point win and come home. There's a couple posts here that indicate the writers think tonight should be an easy one. This might be what Indiana was thinking when they played there, too....and we know how that came out. DON'T expect any road game to be easy or an automatic...

    Carver Arena is BORING

    Lol. That's why I didn't use the exact term or spelling, Reverend. I know Carver is older than '85. I was there when the doors first opened. It was used as a generic timeline for 30+ year old arenas and the ridiculous acceptance that a new facility should only be expected to last 30-40 years. If...

    Carver Arena is BORING

    Is this freeking serious. You mean to tell me that nobody can design a structure / building / arena that will last longer than 50 f**k**g years anymore?? No wonder the nation is broke. What the hell is wrong with this picture?? "Our arena was built in 1985. It's ANCIENT! We MUST have a brand new...

    Minnesota @ #4 Iowa Game Thread

    I hope we don't have any more Sunday night games. That said, after all of the hand wringing, teeth gnashing, and hair pulling after the Indiana game, we're in the exact same position now as we were before that game. Alone in first place with a game lead with two less games to play. (I guess we...

    Back to a #1 seed

    One of the stranger things that I can recall was when Oklahoma lost @ Iowa State and remained the #1 ranked team. I can never remember an AP #1 team losing and not dropping out of that spot...and I don't care HOW tough the place was to play in. There seems to be a fascination with Okie by the...

    Back to a #1 seed

    In the West regional this a.m per Palm @ CBS Sports. Crazy season, isn't it?!?

    Is anyone else here...

    Going to turn on their CBS affiliate around 12:00 today? There's a game on that I have a L I T T L E interest in before we play later. (Suddenly have the urge to put something green on!!) ;)

    Duke VA

    It might be here or there :) as far as the Hawks. Virginia replaced us as a #1 seed in the latest projections. It would seem now that 1 seed is again up for grabs. I haven't studied things in depth this morn, but it would seem they and probably Xavier along with Iowa are the teams most likely to...

    We might not even drop in the polls

    I thought Virginia was the team that replaced us as a #1 seed. They lost today also. We might / should regain a 1 seed and maybe rise to 3 in the polls after tomorrow barring an epic catastrophy. I mean, if we were a 1 seed before Indiana, who deserves it after today's action?? It would seem...

    PRETENDERS II

    Using your criteria and reasoning from this and the other 'Pretenders' thread, I can't find a team anywhere that qualifies as a contender. I guess there aren't any this year. :rolleyes:

    Can Wisky do us a solid today?

    A 5% chance, and that's only 'cause it's 0-0 to start the game. Wisky is not a good team with only a couple decent players at this point. Most are young. Not much scoring. It's one thing to beat up on Nebby, Illinois, Rutgers etc., it's another to try and win @ Maryland with a .500 so-so ball club.

    Let's Breakdown Iowa /Maryland / IU for the B1G title.

    Indiana loses at Michigan State and Iowa. Maryland loses at Purdue and Indiana. Iowa only loses at Michigan. KA-CHING!! TITLE!! :cool:

    #4 Iowa @ Indiana Game Day Thread

    Maryland goes to Purdue and to Indiana. They could easily lose both, plus play Michigan who has already beaten them, tho not likely to lose to them at home. One thing's for damned sure, Maryland or Indiana will lose when they play each other.
