    invasion of IOWA FANS

    What is with the invasion of the smack talking iowa fans to panther nation lately. They remind me an awful lot of some blue hens I'd rather forget.

        Its pretty tough for any messageboard to not have other fans post on it...

          Re: invasion of IOWA FANS

          Iowa fans are on here because they won. Personally i grew up a hawk fan and i root for them when they are not playing the panthers. But The hawks got lucky last night, i had seen 5 of iowa's games this year and they didn't shoot that good at anyone of them. They shot lights out! If the game was in the DOME, i would of said otherwise. The dome was such a home field advantage for the panthers. No team could shoot in there. The mcloud center is gonna be a tough place to win, because its just like every other team's areana. So personally iowa got lucky by shooting lights out, i can't wait to see what happens to them in Ames. State Title will come down between UNI and Drake.

            actually, very few iowa fans knew about this site until a few weeks ago when some UNI fans, or people posing as such, starting posting on the iowa sites.

            interesting take. i agree with you to a certain extent about the shooting environment. however, i personally think that most guards at the D-1 level will make open shots, which is what iowa had most of the night. most UNI fans ive been around have been complaining about the lack of perimeter defense rather than lucky shooting by iowa.

              Good Lord, how petty can people be?

                They are posting here because (and they are denying it) the UNI game is important to them. If it wasn't, why would they spend as much time on here blowing winds from the south?
                Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier'n puttin' it back.

                Before you wonder "Am I doing things right," ask "Am I doing the right things?"

We would be too if we ended a 2-year losing streak to a school. I'll be giddy when we beat Drake a Creighton this season. So why get our feathers ruffled when their fans are giddy about finally winning a game in a rivalry (that's right Hawk fans...your passion shows that it IS a rivalry) game.
                  you know that is a very good point. Congrats hawk fans you finally got one. Can't wait till we meet again. personally I like rivalry games.

                  Don't forget to root for us when we are the only Iowa team playing in march madness!!!

                    It's obviously important to them. They were an 11.5 point underdog. They had to "upset" us to get a win. Any time you beat a team you're not supposed to, it's a big win. I think these guys do realize that, they just like stirring the pot and rubbing it in.

                      What's interesting to me isn't so much the open Hawkeye fan coming into our site, but the select few "Panther Fans" finally showing their true colors when their Hawks win. They wreak of fair weather fans.

                        They miss you on Hawkeye Report P2317. So much so they've devoted an entire thread to you with quotes pulled from here.

                          Well, if they're that entertainment starved, they should dig into some of the back and forth with Delaware last week. As a matter of fact, maybe I'll direct some of the bigger Delaware blowhards to HR.

                          I'm not sure why some Panther fans would feel compelled to go to HR and start spouting smack. There's an old phrase in football when you score and you're in the end zone..."act like you've been there before".

                            panther2317 can vouch for how much time I spend defending UNI from ignorant Iowa fans over there.
