Monday Night Therapy: Should Nebraska Claim 1915 As A National Title?
| Last week, Iowa lost the national title in the women’s basketball game to South Carolina. At that time, I had tweeted out toward the end of the game, “Iowa will not win another national title,” and it started a bit of an argument on Twitter with some Iowa fans who I had trolled, and who started talking about their national titles and how they have more, because Iowa has 24 national titles in wrestling.
