weather is warm, but turn into hard sharp objects. A couple of players got cut up tonight. Has this come up in discussions before?

			<description><![CDATA[ Here are my keys to winning this game:
<br>
<br>
1) <span style="font-weight: bold;">Protect Weber</span> (Iowa is #11 in the BT in making sacks, so this might be possible)
<br>
2) <span style="font-weight: bold;">Crowd the line</span> and play the run.  Green is not a cutback runner so we won&#39;t have to worry about over-pursuit.
<br>
3) <span style="font-weight: bold;">Reduce penalties and mental errors</span>.  We are the most penalized team in the conference.

4) <span... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ <p>This team NEEDS a scorer!
<br>
<br>
So far I&#39;m happy with how Lawrence Westbrook is scoring (and actually a bit surprised). But if this team is to exceed my rather high expectations another
scorer has to emerge.
<br>
<br>
Al Nolen is a pass first guy. Although I think he needs to attack the basket more, he is not, even at his best, the answer to the Gophers scoring woes.

<blockquote>
  (Loyola-Md Coach Jimmy) Patsos was slapped with a technical foul midway through the first half. According to Patsos, instead of calling the technical on the

  <p>Patsos said Gaffney then warned him that he would be thrown out of the arena if he said another word.</p>

Maroon look for IU and Northwestern.  Will we see Maroon over White this Saturday?  (Last year&#39;s Iowa game was the first time I remember seeing White over
Maroon)

I hope the Metrodome/city/U officials start concentrating their efforts on continuing to get NCAA 1st/2nd round &amp; regional semis/finals. Just can&#39;t see
any way another Final Four will be awarded to Minneapolis (with the Dome as the site), but I would think earlier rounds will stay within the realm of
possibility. <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=3712958"><br>
