!*!*!*!*THE official Iowa/Illinois basketball thread**** Sunday 3/10 6:00 tip FS1!*!*!*!*!*

[26.2]

It seems like the earlier I post these, the more the team gets FIRED UP for the game, so here we go!

Will our squad punch their fucking ticket to the NCAA tourney and possibly lock down a 4/5 seed for the Big 10 tournament? Stay tuned!

Win on Sunday and Beevatology will move our Hawkeyes to lock status and immune from a bid thief in conference tournament play. Should be a great crowd.

 

[BBK]

I hope China nukes Champaign

Unlikely. They’ve likely identified it as an already eliminated target.

Plus all those fuckin Asians in that town. Good chance at least half those TLBs are Chinese

Kendall Gill ain't walking thru that door anytime soon.

Iowa 89
Lou Henson's Hairpiece 81

 

[ddevries]

Swiped some tickets for $20 off StubHub. Hoping it’s the best men’s atmosphere in a couple years.

Do you need any pointers on where to park?

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Looks sold out

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Looks sold out

You going?

 

[BBK]

 

[L. Wade Childress]

You going?

of course. I haven’t missed a game in nearly 8 years.

 

[KitKatApples]

Except for the 47 times you’ve told people you have tickets you’re not using

Senior Day celebrations before the game or after?

 

[OlePeep]

Krikke had 15 and 5 in 30 minutes last game, but it seemed like he was absolutely unsuited to defending the Illini's bigs. I don't have a +/- for him but I wonder if Ladji is the better option for more minutes, though no doubt he'll foul out. Krikke just cannot hang w/ those guys

 

[Stu Beagle]

Pat’s final game in Carver is gonna be emotional

 

[WCFHawkeye]

NIT home game?

 

[Lee Beevers]

NIT home game?

Good thing were a year away.

NIT home game?

Sometimes I love you. Sometimes I hate you.
I really fucking hate you now.

 

[WCFHawkeye]

Win Sunday, and I believe the worst we can be seeded is #6. If Northwestern loses twice (@Michigan State and vs. Minnesota) or Nebrantska loses @Michigan Iowa is a 3 or 4 seed. *** Edit *** Wisconsin also needs to lose to Purdue (unless Northwestern loses both and Nebrantska loses).

Lose Sunday, and anywhere between #5 and #8 are the only possibilities.

Let's just win.

The best thing about Senior day is Iowa gives them a framed jersey with the beloved NASCAR font

Gonna get some great new marge footage.

Patty Mac is gonna PWN all his doubters and haters come Sunday!

 

[OlePeep]

Ok SIAP posted but I didn’t see it in this or the season thread, and not a defense of Cletey but oof…not really the vibe I’m looking for going into a monster game

 

[Hawk&Balls]

 

[Dr. Zaius]

Ha!

 

[HawkBall23]

I wonder if the "Boys & Girls Club of Illinois" will find a way to make a mass ticket purchase this weekend.

Which charity gets its good name besmirched by the Illinois student section failing to get a bunch of tickets this year?

 

[Hawkstrat]

Obviously they'll have some fans in Carver, but I think they typically do one coming out game a year, and they did that at Purdue.

The lack of awareness here is astounding.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I would argue that at least one person has stayed home because of Patrick’s lack of effort and Fran’s nepotism. Probably closer to 2500.

 

[The Incredible Hawk]

Take that, Pat!

 

[Jim Tebow]

Hes a troubled kid.

 

[BBK]

I'm so scared

 

[The Dad]

Faith over fear.

 

[TJones3312]

 

[Fritz Fequiere]

I think it’s a good matchup for Iowa because Illinois doesn’t make you work very hard on defense, which Fran has decided isn’t worth doing anyways.

They have some great one on one talent but don’t do much off the ball.

 

[Hawkstrat]

The incompetence didn't die with Barta.

 

[douglasbader]

Sounds like the same stuff that gets you arrested at Kinnick!!

 

[BBK]

I don't understand what Hawkeye Ron is saying. Can someone translate retard?

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Kids don’t have their ID on their phone? Like it’s an actual card still?

 

[Russell Ziske]

I don't understand what Hawkeye Ron is saying. Can someone translate retard?

[Stu Beagle]

Did people expect the worst student section in the douche to finally show up during Spring break?
