**Iowa vs. Penn State Basketball - 1/4/19 - 1pm - BTN**

[douglasbader]

Iowa up to #18 in KenPom. #2 Offense and #91 Defense. Penn State is #23 in KenPom. #36 Offense and #27 Defense.

Game is at a semi-neutral site in Philly, the historic Palestra. They have size inside with Stevens and Watkins and a couple of guys that shoot well.

I'm guessing they put Connor on Stevens. Might fuck him up some.

I still have two tickets if anyone wants them. I guess I could put them on stubhub but i really don’t need anything for them.

do you know someone who will use them? I was going to send a message to the philly iclub but it seems like a lot of work for $40

I'll take them and sell them and get $60.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I can do that.

I want iowa fans in the seats.

Why do you have tickets to a game way out east?

[KitKatApples]

Not acceptable

 

[HawkBall23]

Not only would it get Iowa to 2-1 in the B10 (+ another Quad1 victory), but I really want them to win this game.

Fuck Penn St, their seemingly [at least one] 10-yr senior per season, and the Hawks' normal losing in heartbreaking fashion to them in PA (except last year).

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I got $250 for my tickets lol

You're welcome.

Yes, it was all you Dougie.

 

[douglasbader]

Yes, it was all you Dougie.

Dumbfuck, you tried multiple times to give them away. I finally said I would gladly take them and was point blank that I would sell them.

Only at that point did you realize maybe you should sell them instead of fumbling around on here like a dipshit.

You sold them within 24 hours for $260. Your're welcome.

LOL I literally said in my first post that I could put them on stubhub.

I just usually use CL so they go to iowa fans.

I would actually be willing to take $50 of my proceeds and shove it up your ass if you’d like. LMK

 

[Wanderer]

1 $50 bill or 5000 pennies?

folded lengthwise, or sideways?

It's gotta be binary?

This eight game stretch in January is huge.

1/4 @PSU (semi neutral site)
1/7 @Nebrantska
1/10 Maryland
1/14 @Northwestern
1/17 Michigan
1/22 Rutgers
1/27 Wisconsin
1/30 @Maryland

hopefully take one of the Maryland/Michigan games at home. Doubt we can beat Maryland on the road.

Seems like we could legitimately go 6-2 in that stretch. Probably at worst 4-4 IMO.

If we go 6-2, it should be a breeze to get to 20 wins. 5-3 and we’ll still feel pretty good. 4-4 and it starts getting tough to get to 20 wins.

I’m fucking pumped.

 

[KingJames]

Looks like 8-0 to me.

They're going to win some you don't expect and probably lose a couple you don't expect as well. Really just need to avoid losses to Nebrantska and Northwestern.

 

[Stu Beagle]

This whole game was set up for Fran. They need to win

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Or else!!

 

[Bonner]

Or else!!

I’m hearing the same thing

 

[Shpadoinkle]

PSU is typically among the most frustrating games each year, so we’ve got that going for us.

Just post “hope we win” and GTFOH.

I still have two tickets if anyone wants them. I guess I could put them on stubhub but i really don’t need anything for them.

I hope someone takes you up on the generous offer! Is there any kind of Iowa alum organization in Philly (doubtful)?

***EDIT: You penny-pinching bastard!

in fact, there is!

Next year he'll probably demand to go to Disney World!

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Penn State moved a home game just for Fran! Not because they have 4 kids from Philly on the roster and want to recruit there.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

They did it in 2017 and beat MSU.

Sounds like Iowa should move about 8 home games to Philly then as well.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

That was just for famed Philadelphia native Tom Izzo.

 

[Jimmie Dimmick]

Game was set up with Fran in mind as a potential foe. The philly kids on PsU roster and the recruits currently in HS is the main reason it was set up.

Hello Fans,

It’s time for some Iowa basketball!

 

[UnKnOwN_SeRb]

Isn't it little early for you, @Bonner ? Game hasn't even started.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Remember there is a 30 min pregame show that should be good today.

[HawkBall23]

I'm sure that Cordell is a good young man in all other walks of life, but lord almighty is he just a huge net negative on the court this season.

I know the roster is very thin, so Coach Fran has to give him some minutes to let others get some air (or dealing with foul trouble), but CP's a big liability on both ends of the floor.
