Went undefeated at home last year. 11-4 the year before. 17-1 the year before covid

Very cool. They also have a completely different roster this year and are 5-11 in their conference.

Izzo didn't foul up 3.    Holy crap a doodle do.

Crazy finish to MSU-Iowa. Going to OT after Iowa hit 5 3's in the last 40 seconds.

Iowa rallies from 13 down with 90 seconds left to tie Michigan st at 101 going to overtime

Defense optional game...

Tough place to play. As evidenced by the last several years dominance and this season playing everyone except for wva tough.

A Hauser is on the court. Of course nobody is playing defense.

Nothing like watching a titanic battle of two middle of the road teams in an average at best conference.

Two garbage teams.

MSU was up by 10 with 40 sec to go.  Iowa wins by 6 in OT.  😎

[tower912]

MSU made 5-6 free throws.   Iowa made 5 threes in 40 seconds.   Wild.


MU-Davidson.

Interesting that Iowa in their last two road games was something like 5-50 from distance.

Looks like Hall of Fame coach Tom Izzo had a rough afternoon

Agreed but you know the Big 10 media fanboys will cite this as proof about how the conference is so tough.  🙄

[withoutbias]

Iowa's first 3 game win streak against MSU since the early 90s. Joey helping Izzo achieve a lot of negative "first time since."

Wonder if Joey will stand up to coach Izzo like a leader and demand more defensive intensity

[Dish]

Iowa closed -5.5.

True dat.

He misses having Duane Stephens next to him.

You can't say that on the Dodds board or you'll be banned.

I am so hoping Wojo has to add some commentary to the game highlights that feature any of Joey's shots.

[tower912]

... you can't give shooters that much space.... over helping on penetration.....
I would have fouled up 3 but Izzo is a hall of fame coach...

Some grist for the mill.

The bigger question is would you foul up 2?  🧐

Arkansas will be a really scary team to face in the tournament

Or if you are the coach at the end of the game and do not know that your team has the lead, do you tell one of your players to foul?
