Iowa 81 IU 75
Well, you're just not going to win on the road in the Big Ten with D.J. playing poorly and getting your ass handed to you on the glass. IU gave up way, way too many offensive rebounds and they continued they're trend of sending the other team to the free throw line time after time after time. Add in the fact that I think we missed all of our front ends today and the free throw line is just killing them. Overall, a really piss-poor performance.
Poll Results:
The main factor in beating Wisconsin was IU's toughness (4 votes), Ratliff (3 votes), IU's zone defense (2 votes), rebounding (1 vote). Man, today really killed the joy of the Wisconsin victory.
All 11 voters incorrectly predicted an IU win against Iowa today.
6 out of 10 were able to watch the IU/Wisconsin game live, while 2 recorded it and 2 tracked on the internet.

these may quite possibly be the worst college officials i have ever seen.
why is ben allen playing? can we not go with 5 guards?he is so embarassing.
Ditto your comments Jeff. Not a pretty game. I'm not a fan of Shakespeare but...DJ, where are thou DJ?
Didn't watch the game. Heard they lost from an Iowa fan. He is now dead.
I wonder if DJ was sick or something - he was absolutely pathetic. And it wasn't just rebounding. How many times was he trapped and couldn't get out of it! I can understand a little runt like Suhr perhaps having problems being double-teamed in the corner or on the sideline, but not DJ. This team requires consistency from DJ b/c they're not going to get it from Wilmont, Ratliffe, Calloway or anyone else every game. These guys periodically step up, which is nice, be we need DJ every game.
The new rankings just came out -- IU drops a spot to #27 in the AP, they are #24 in the ESPN/USA Today poll, and they remain at #16 in the sportline RPI.
As for our poll question predicting this week's AP ranking, nobody correctly predicted #27. We had 2 votes each for #24 & #29 and 1 vote each for 20, 22, 25, 26, & 28.
