Wouldn't mind seeing ALL remaining #1 seeds lose their games....

I'm pulling for ALL SEC teams left in the tournament. Until such time that one comes up against Bama of course.

[CajunCrimson]

Purdue’s dirty.

 

[Bazza]

How the heck is Iowa only a 9 seed.....geeez.....

 

[Bazza]

Was watching a commercial and a game broke out!

 

[Bazza]

Texas game announcers are Purdue homers big time....

 

[Joefus]

watching neb vs Iowa and it looks like they are both dead legged. UGLY shots all around

 

[rolltide_21]

I was expecting a game in the low 30s with Iowa and Nebraska.

 

[Cruiser]

Nebraska only has 4 players on the floor on a ball in and leaves guy wide open on a run out.
NEVER seen that before

 

[rolltide_21]

Four on the floor out of a timeout for the Huskers leading to a run out and 3 point play. What a blunder. Almost like the Huskers have money on the Hawkeyes.

 

[rolltide_21]

7 is owning the Huskers right now. Iowa on a 14-3 run

 

[rolltide_21]

Typical for Iowa sports to have a bunch of white guys dominating

 

[rolltide_21]

Really bad execution down the stretch for Nebraska. Iowa only led for the last 2:08.

 

[rolltide_21]

Also, Iowa is WAY underseeded.
