Iowa reminds me of the early to mid 00's Tommy Amaker Michigan teams. Start out great, get ranked nationally, appear to be locked into an NCAA berth and then fade away down the stretch. The difference I guess is 4 extra at-large teams because Michigan was probably one of the first 4 teams out a couple of those years.

 

According to Lunardi's site at least, even with the 4 extra teams Iowa would be pretty cleanly in as they aren't even among the first four byes.

I've got Iowa as a 9 seed right now, which is a stark drop from the likely protected seed they were 3 weeks ago.

Stauskas was just given continuation for a foul in the first round of the tourney

 

Was the one that Hill didn't get as bad as the announcers made it sound?

Relative to the multiple bad continuations for staukas yes. On an ordinary day where that's not called it would've been fine

Stauskas better enjoy this treatment, he's going to be the white guy not allowed to stand near the superstar in a year(or whenever the hell he decides to go pro).

Now just because stauskas was passing the ball for somebody else to shoot, that's still continuation right? I mean somebody was going to shoot it

 

Holy [expletive] I was joking are you [expletive] kidding me??!!!

Illinois fans need to stop with the refs. The last 4 or 5 fouls on Michigan have all been ticky tac

The foul calls haven't been bad, but the continuation calls have been terrible.

Maybe they're make ups for giving 2 free throws on a pass to the perimeter

Nobody said they shouldn't be fouls, just not NBS style continuation shooting fouls.

 

I continue to be impressed by how Groce has these guys playing their best at the end of the season.

Every since that Stauskas continuation, I feel like the calls have been in favor of Illinois. Before that it was the opposite

Maybe they can work on not [expletive] the bed for 2 months every year now

or how about the obvious hand slap on that 3 by Robinson? Just stop, Illinois is getting some breaks also. It hasnt been officiated that well, but it certainly is not in Michigans favor.

 

Illinois is playing great zone defense and Michigan looks like they have no clue right now

Illinois should not shoot a jumper the rest of the game...they can get points in the paint at will

 

been the story all year against UM

That had more to do with the transition from the older guys to younger guys this year. Nunn and Hill have completely changed the way they're able to play offense because they can actually, you know, shoot the ball.
