Sup y'all!
It's a must win! I don't have the heart to write any more than that right now so I won't!
Okay, I will. Bill Carmody is giving $1000 to the DM group that's bringing the most people to the game tonight. So if you're a Northwestern student and doing DM, DON'T GO TO THE GAME TONIGHT. I want my group to win and hate all of you and I want the money for myself my DM group so back off. (No word on whether when they say "Bill Carmody is giving $1000, they actually mean "Bill Carmody", but whatever, awesome gesture by whoever.
Did any of you guys know that Icehouse actually goes down somewhat smoothly when you refrigerate it? I'm finding that out for myself right now, in bulk. Well, I probably should stop talking. Anyway, if you have things to say about the basketballs, jumps and say things.

Alright who had "pre-tip" as the first mention of never been to the tournament?

Just finished watching my Rebels
seal their NIT fate. And if I recall correctly the announcers mentioned NU’s drought before half time. NU is always a popular topic for teams in a tourne drought.

Rebels are still in the middle of the SEC
which is where Northwestern needs to be in the Big Ten to make the tournament. They can both make it if they finish strong in conference play. That will be enough ole miss talk, Hotty Totty

Is it just me
Or is Marcotullio in a really big three point shooting slump?
I’m not good at looking up stats, so maybe it’s just me.
i'm reading this after the fact
and i’d just like to say that even if he was, he’s now OH SO TOTALLY NOT
Tim Doyle just said the corner 3 is the hardest shot
ummm… nu alum Daryl Morey disagrees
Also
Refs don’t want to call fouls on us right now?
Froo looking a little shaky
He’s in shock he’s in the the first half.

He also got fouled on that one
But it was an awkward shot so I think the refs didn’t want to honor it
Damn
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Shurna hit a reverse layup
So...
1) We’re up 9 at the half.
2) We’re playing at home.
3) This is I_wa we’re talking about.
Think we can avoid #$%&ing this one up?
Well, I thoroughly enjoyed
that crazy-ass half.

I can't figure out which situation is more absurd...
…the fact that we’ve got 15 points through 5 minutes, or that Iowa is somehow keeping pace.
Go Cats
I love quiet Iowa fans. Let’s just bury these fucks already.

STRONG HATERS at BHGP
It’s beautiful to read. Touching.

Haters gotta hate.
And the Haterade’s flowing over there.

Their point guard does that jumping
before he passes the ball thing. Not good.

I believe we've found our 3rd scorer...
and our 4th scorer. Wow. When it’s your night, it’s your night, eh?

It was all about the kraken tonight.
Yeesh. Iowa got done swallowed up.

The Kraken
Has been a monster tonight.

why
Why are the starters out there up 22 with 2 minutes to go?
by Nirvana91 on Feb 9, 2012 9:48 PM CST via mobile reply actions
Signature win: Seton Hall?
Uhhh..Michigan State, anyone?
www.massivecreativity.com
I think Seton Hall gets in the Big Dance.
RPI’s comparable to ours and their schedule should get them to 9-9 easily.
Put in any healthy subs, BC
No injuries.

Deserved Standing O.
Iowa may have got beatdown tonight, but these guys have beaten Michigan and swept Minnesota. I think our boys have responded and it’s time to kick it up another level.

Sobo turnover
D’oh!

They were actually chanting “start your tractors.” No joke.

Ha
Never doubt the snark of NU(ians).

The announcer has really been going
out of his way to blow NU all night. I feel like I am listening to John Madden talk about Brett Favre.

Suddenly everyone in my family is like...
NU is going to the tourney, right?
I’m like: talk to me after they win their 9th B1G game.
Even though my sample size is 1
I feel like Iowa fans are the only ones who preface NU with a little “j” (just-Northwestern). Is it because they always struggle against the Cats or do they suffer from a pseudo “little brother” complex? Or both?

I think it's from Corey Wootton sacking Ricky Stanzi
I think Black Heart Gold Pants set up that moniker – you could ask them…
Dates back to the Shonn Greene game
Lots of back-and-forth between BHGP and LTP’ers. They came out with the clever insult cards beforehand, we played a lot of “no respect” cards in return, and it went back-and-forth from there. This was pre-SOP.
