[26.2]

Bitching about the referees is the worst part about IowaFan. Every game. It really is insane.

Iowa's fan base does not have a monopoly on this.

Agreed, but it is a staple.

how many fucking BigTen games where we get pushed around like soft ass bitches do people need to see before they realize the refs aren’t the main problem?

I don’t bitch about the refs. I bitch about the conference.

The way the college game is officiated is a crime, but unfortunately it’s not changing. Fran refusing to adjust to it like most teams have (look at NW) is his biggest flaw.

 

[KitKatApples]

58 percent of statistics on the internet are completely made up.

18% of people know that

I mean, the entire conference is losing on the road, but carry on

Exactly. It may not be great for the product. In fact it is pretty brutal to watch (especially Iowa). We have known full well how things go in the conference and yet still continue to have the same issues.

It has always been tough to win on the road in the Big Ten, but when Iowa is bad they are REALLY bad.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

I can’t point to any real reason why, but this is the strongest home court has been in the Big Ten since 2007.

It’s not just the big ten. Look at the big 12. It’s full on rape at all times. Just fucking brutal.

 

[CamelTones]

Big Ten road teams are a couple minutes away from a 3-0 night.

Like the NBA had been for a couple of decades. They're the feeder league for rules.

 

[Revolver]

I saw this little dipshit white blonde kid on a plane back to CR being a total fucking twat the entire time a few weeks back and all I could think was “that dickhead will likely either be starting on the Hawkeye Basketball team eventually or lined out wide for the football team”. Fuck me.

The big ten understands that perceived home court advantage drives ticket sales.

my thoughts on this has been unchanged for 20 years, well before Titos was invented

 

[Fair and Balanced]

Iowa missed 74 straight wide open threes due to a conference conspiracy to sell tickets.
