Tennessee's start to this game is very UMass-like?
A smart person learns from his mistakes, but a truly wise person learns from the mistakes of others.

Zach Macabe? So this is obv Iowas half, but like post #2 said Tenn is coming out slow and dumb ala Umass probably strategy.

Iowa looks very good and very comfortable out there. Same style as us but better so far.

Neither team who creates plays like Chaz. Not many do. We just have to make the f'n shots we shoot.

Iowa on an emotional high. Tennessee is having a UMass start. Either way we will need to board. Iowa sure gets up the court
