[Herky] Hawkeyes finally play some defense

[Keith Voigts]

I agree.  The Hawks looked so much better than their performance in some
earlier games.

 

In all non-homer honesty, I thought Iowa State played a poor game.  They
missed a lot of bunnys and just seemed out of sync.  It could have been much
closer.

 

But I'll take the win, and my hopes have been strengthened for a better
season!

Even in this excellent win there are a lot of negatives that you can point
out.  That is encouraging to me as there is still a big opportunity for them
to get much better.

It was a fun game to watch and enjoyable to see Iowa State get beat.  I
agree with the intensity of the entire team.  If I had to nitpick a bit,
some of the Hawkeye shots seemed forced when a teammate appeared to be open.
But I loved the aggressiveness that they displayed going to the bucket.  

 

>From this one game it appears that they'll be competitive in conference play
although I've seen both Purdue and the Hoosier play several times and both
teams are excellent. 

 

Go Hawks!!

I thought one of the keys was Moss guarding Morris at the start. He shut
Morris down early. If ISU had been able to get out to a fast start I am not
sure how Iowa responds.  Excellent intensity. They also worked through being
tired at the end. When ISU got it to 7 you had to wonder if a young team
would let it slip away.

with intensity.  Great win tonight.  Contributions came from each of the 9
Hawks players who got playing time.  

 

It was a very physical game, and the Hawks were up for the physical play.
Iowa held the Cyclones to 35.7% shooting pct, and forced them into taking 30
three-pointers, 22 of which missed.  They also out-rebounded them.

 

Great game plan, well executed.

 

Oh, by the way, Isaiah Moss is going to be a very good player.

 

Go Hawks!
