OK I'll ask... is it OK to root for the Hawkeyes tonite?

Went to school and graduated from Nebraska. I’ve lived in Iowa for 35 years among their fans and been a member of this board since the early 2000s. They are the same.
Yes, real life Iowa fans act just like fans on a message board. Thank you for proving my point that their fans are insufferable.

I think Nebraska fans are getting a little testy. Are you worried about your next game?
I know this is new territory for you but that testosterone you finally feel coursing through your veins is like a drug for beta males to get all brave on message boards. It is best to let it dip back to your normal beta levels and rely on Mom to bring you your pot pie while you play another game of Warcraft in the basement.

I was on a flight and could not watch the second half of the Iowa game. I give the Hawkeyes credit for making some clutch plays but man, that Florida coach is an even bigger goober than I thought. Draws up an incredibly stupid defensive strategy for the final possession, and then blames his players for not executing. Maybe next time, try putting some players on the half of the floor where the other team is trying to score? Even if the game-winning 3 was missed, Iowa had an uncontested putback for the tie.

Anyway, congrats to the Hawks. Thursday will be fun.

Nebraska played in a football national championship game more recently than Iowa has been in the Sweet Sixteen
I come in peace and this is all meant in good fun but ... didn’t Nebraska just win their first Tournament game EVER like 10 minutes ago? Iowa is no juggernaut but has won 33 Tournament games.

Additionally, Iowa has been to 9 Sweet Sixteens, 4 Elite Eights, 3 Final Fours and 1 Championship game. NOT GREAT, but respectable perhaps.

Congratulations on your very recent success but come on ...

Worried about what? I don’t play in the games nor does my livelihood depend on the outcome of the game. What should I be worried about? I’m a little worried that you seem it’s neat to come over to another teams board when you should be celebrating your victory on your own board ?
You sound worried.

We can say the same about your irrelevant football program.

Have only won 3 Major/New Years6 bowls in it’s pathetic history and never been relevant in the history of college football.

Don’t pay attention to king monkey he is a complete dipshit that most don’t like on this board.

Not really comparable. Most would agree that Iowa football has generally been at least a perennial top 25 to 30 type football program. Whereas, Nebraska basketball can’t make that same claim.

Please explain to me what I’m worried about shitbird? I worry about a lot of things but the outcome of this sporting event isn’t one of them. Again Im assuming your team has its own board to discuss Iowa athletics? Not that there’s really much to discuss but all the same you should do it over there with people that smoke meth watch kiddie porn and work in a convenience store as you will have that in common with each other.

So you can only defend your basketball program by bringing up your football program?

Besides, it's not even an apt comparison. If Iowa had never won even a minor bowl game prior to this year you might have something.

That's actually kind of ironic, because no one ever gave a **** about Nebraska basketball until a few minutes ago either.

I'll still try to keep it cordial with anyone who does the same, fwiw.
No one ever gave **** about Indiana football either.

Another bad take.

Laugh as you may but Nebraska basketball has won two tournaments and I admit the crown is lame but Nebraska has won the NIT. Like winning a minor bowl game.

They're both true! No one ever gave a **** about NE basketball or Indiana football.

They don’t each invalidate the other.

More bad reasoning.

You just can’t handle the truth that you’ve never won anything out side of rassling.

Go back to the Clarkeye board,

I think you're finally using an appropriate word: lame ;)

But I really didn't come here to bad mouth your program, but just kinda suggest cool it a little on disparaging virtually any program's Tournament success history when yours was literally non-existent until last week.

I would like to say good luck, but ya know ;)
