That was quite the choke job, holy crap

 

[Pitt_Clone]

You had one job, Fred

 

[Clonefan94]

So glad Hoiberg isn’t still our coach.

 

[Nor'MidWester]

This is the worst timeline.

 

[CycloneErik]

The classic "did not see that team getting out of the first round, and now they're in the Elite Eight" scenario.

 

[BillBrasky4Cy]

Nebraskas commitment to playing 5 out was certainly a choice.

 

[Bob f]

I'm surprised how upset I am about this.

My hatred for iowa is unhealthy

 

[ClonerJams]

I joked the other day, but I honestly wonder if North Carolina might look to McCullom if their top targets say no

 

[Cyclones_R_GR8]

 

[HoustonClone]

Crazy to say but the way they are playing they could easily go to NC

Against Houston? Nah...

 

[Zyklon]

**** this. Easiest path to a final four in history and of course it’s served to Iowa on a silver platter

 

[cyfanbr]

This effing blows. Kudos to Iowa for betting Florida, but get Nebraska is such a joke. I have a bad feeling about tomorrow now. Why did our guy have to get hurt…

 

[Cyinthenorth]

UNC would be smart to offer McCollum a blank check

My god, please do. Let that fanbase deal with the coaching rumors for a change

 

[ISUTex]

I can't believe I cheered for Nebraska for nothing. I need a shower.

So glad Hoiberg isn’t still our coach.

The defense and offense looked very familiar.

 

[Inthesystem]

Well four guys were playing defense. How does Iowa get so lucky?

 

[CycloneErik]

So glad Hoiberg isn’t still our coach.

Nah. That team has been clutch down the stretch all year. This is the first time I remember seeing them end one like this.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

I joked the other day, but I honestly wonder if North Carolina might look to McCullom if their top targets say no

They’ve got to at least call

 

[Erik4Cy]

1 foul on Iowa is crazy work.

That is insane. Has that ever happened in a tournament game, I mean...ever?!?

 

[Nor'MidWester]

I just don’t believe either team is a top 8 team in the country

God no. But that's not how the tournament works.
