I thought the game would be a lot closer. This NU team is for real.

Just don't want us instinctively rooting against Ash because of our resident village idiot.

I wish he'd realize that his schtick has run dry. It's not like anyone here actually thinks it's funny...

Not rooting against him. Just wondered what he's thinking. I suspect he meant Falzon next season.

Iowa fan here... You guys really took it to us, a total clinic by NW tonight. Just not our night tonight.

You guys have a great team and yes this will be the year that NW makes the Big Dance. Little doubt in my mind.

Congrats...

I feel like they're good enough to not even have to sweat on Selection Sunday. They don't even look like a bubble team anymore.

Certainly not based on what I saw tonight. Very impressive, high-performing team. IA is really young so they'll have those nights - especially on the road. However, it's not like you didn't thoroughly beat a team without some talent - e.g. IA win over PU on Thu.

Iowa won 8 of 10 coming into this game. NU did not sleep on Ioa.

At some point if NU turns the corner the team has to also intimidate others for future games.

Like in the hunt for a Conference Championship good
We're among the top five in the conference standings now, and 6 of our remaining 11 games are against the other four teams in this group. Continue to play well and have a few bounces go our way, and we'll be in the thick of it.

The first step is beating all the teams you are supposed to beat.
The second step is pushing the others beneath you.
