*****Iowa vs UConn Game Thread****

[Denmar]

They look just completely lost and outclassed today.

Could be a rough year come conference play. This defense is going to give up points.

 

[citizenHawk1]

As ugly as expected. Have to keep it in perspective, but this team has a lot of issues. Haven't even scored this quarter.

 

[im4hawks50595]

Switched back to nfl after first half mr magoo could see blowout coming, jan against higher ranked teams not at home is not good and no backup center once again was just idiotic not being addressed in the off season

 

[Manfredi]

Hope we can shore up our 3 pt defense before next Sunday or Blakes and Galvan will go off.

Could be a rough year come conference play. This defense is going to give up points.

They won't be facing another Sarah Strong this year. She has half of their points and has been unconscious shooting the ball.

I'm way more worried about the offense. It's a sloppy mess right now. Jan has got to get this figured out.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Blowout.

Again.

Geno (Vegeta) exclaiming to Caitlin Clark (Goku) how he buried Iowa once again to rub it in her face as revenge for that one time Iowa/CC bested Geno:

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Is Carnegie going to show up this year?

Nah it was just that one exhibition game.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Rebounding effort has been beyond poor

It's an "Elvis" for the Hawks.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Hays looks terribly uncertain out there. Had a wide open player to pass to and hesitated.

Bump for accuracy

 

[Moral]

If Iowa loses by 15 or less I declare a moral victory.

 

[Bulldogs1974]

Faison needs more run

Hays looks terribly uncertain out there. Had a wide open player to pass to and hesitated.

Also needs a lot of work in the weight room

Quite flabby indeed.

I don’t see some amazing transformations in her future like we saw in past post players.

 

[IowaCityLit]

You do have to question JJs coaching at this point. The way they collapsed down the stretch last year and folded under pressure. And now today. The talent disparity is a thing. Iowa just doesn’t have the star talent of elite teams. Or quality of depth. At least yet. But man they look poorly coached and overwhelmed today.

 

[Manfredi]

Quite flabby indeed.

She gets blocked so often and many times by players much shorter.

 

[HawkFan10]

Jan just gets outcoached by any good coach...she can't even keep these games competitive...what a joke!

I think this game at this level is just too fast for her. Everyone is moving at 70mph and she's plugging along at 45. It's not her fault. It just is what it is.

 

[KurtWarner]

Must be rough to get your pick of the best players in the country year in and year out

Rebounding may be the biggest issue especially when Ava is on the bench. 39-22 deficit. Just brutal.

And if the Hawks don’t have reliable shooters then not sure how much can be done. No adjustments on defense really either

 

[IowaCityLit]

How good is Michigan?

Last night, RG3 said, NIL and the Portal have created great "Parity" in college football lol. True for basketball too, I suppose? Ha Ha Ha.

 

[Manfredi]

How good is Michigan?

very

 

[KurtWarner]

Where's MW?

 

[Denmar]

Weak *** foul, again.

 

[HawkFan10]

How good is Michigan?

And how bad is Iowa

 

[2212hawk2]

Faison did the best job on Strong. Should have been on her from the start.

 

[Denmar]

Whiting gets her own rebound and 3 players don’t bother coming back on offense

 

[KurtWarner]

Unconn looks shocked and appalled when a foul is called on them

 

[Hawk-A-Doodle-Doo]

This is......what's the word?

Oh yeah.

Bad.

 

[2212hawk2]

Ava bleeding out…no foul.

 

[Manfredi]

Unconn looks shocked and appalled when a foul is called on them

just practicing for when they play in the W

 

[Legend12]

Ava bleeding out…no foul.

 

[Moral]

Hopefully Ava goes unconscious like Garza when he would bleed.

 

[KurtWarner]

Unconn=thugs

 

[BroncHawk]

And how bad is Iowa

Breathe

 

[Hawksfor3]

This is......what's the word?

Oh yeah.

Bad.

UConn is calling us:

 

[Hawksfor3]

Ledge! Where you been???

 

[Hawksfor3]

Hopefully Ava goes unconscious like Garza when he would bleed.

Funny. Luka immediately came to mind after the head butt. lol.
