Re: GREAT article!
Wow. AWESOME!"...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

Re: GREAT article!
I’ve read a bunch of articles online and in print about the game. Almost all of them give props to UNI and praise them for their defense, system, and hard noised players. While the ISU’s issues are briefly talked about the spotlight was mainly on UNI.
Conversely, every local radio show I listened to yesterday had a brief moment of praise for UNI than the remainder of the segment was focusing on ISU and how they beat themselves and what’s wrong with the program. I’m well aware that UNI doesn’t move the needle on the airwaves, but common give credit where credit is due. I wish when we get wins over our in-state BCS brethren they would focus on what we did to win, not what ISU or Iowa did to lose. They act as disappointed as the fans on CF.com.Last edited by porkchop; 12-02-2011, 03:12 PM.

i even got an angry tweet from one of them when I mentioned the "well UNI is so far away" line was dumb, since Iowa City is the exact same distanceOriginally posted by porkchop View PostI’ve read a bunch of articles online and in print about the game.
