I bet ASU and took the points. It is such a let down game.

It's also possible they have a somewhat competent official crew that actually didn't take the night off like the crew that officiated our game against them.

I’m not really worried about finishing ahead of WVU. They probably lose at Manhattan Saturday anyways. Houston is the only one we will likely need to worry about

We’ll do our part by beating Houston, hopefully some other teams can beat them.

Doubtful that they make it.,.. they certainly aren’t good enough to be in.
Is sandlot playing? I heard he was hurt?

He's playing. 17 pts so far.

They could actually fire Fran not good

They always run some special event when we're in town.

Football was Coal Miner's Appreciation Night or something
Jerry West Appreciation Night for MBB
Maybe the women's game on Sunday was marry-your-cousin appreciation night.

The Jerry West recognition was all weekend and carried into the women's game on Sunday.

JFC Iowa. Are you really this bad? Iowa remaining a quad 1 win for us doesn't seem likely.

There’s a logjam of teams with 5 losses. Currently, one 5 loss team isn’t making it. Losing to the worst team in the conference at home hurts their chances. But I haven’t gone through the unbalanced schedules to see if there’s a team in that logjam that’ll have a brutal schedule to get that coveted 16 spot.

Harding is pissed now. He will put the team on his back and carry them home.

No it's Small cannot hit anything tonight. He has not been good

How is Iowa even a quad 1?

Ah, that's his name. Saw them in Madison a few weeks ago.

He reminds me of like a 3A Iowa high school player from about 1995.

They just showed the crowd. That place is only a third full tonight.

 

[ISU_Guy]

I think Iowa will convert 3-4 turnovers and 3-4 3 pointers to come back but if they don’t…..look out season

 

[FinalFourCy]

Any chance we could snag Dix?

I assume Creighton would put up big money for him though

This one should drop them about 12 spots

Less than that. That was posted on X.

Maybe he’s tanking

AKA "The Wizard"

I think the goal of the new AD is to shrink the buyout. Frans time in Iowa City is numbered unfortunately and it was obvious when his son didn’t go there.
