Indiana Defense Smothers No. 4 Iowa

Iowa unraveled in the second half in a loss to Indiana.

The Hoosiers took control with a late 23-3 run and raced away to an 81-69 win, handing the fourth ranked Hawkeyes their first home loss of the season. The Hawks were outscored 50-32 in the second half and finished five of 23 from three point range. Luka Garza led Iowa with 28 points and 12 rebounds.

Iowa led by nine in the second half before the Hoosiers turned the game around.

Joe Wieskamp had 16 points but he and Garza were the only Hawkeyes in double figures.

That’s Iowa coach Fran McCaffery who says the Hawkeyes ball movement on offense was lacking.

Iowa played the second half without starting guard CJ Fredrick who was nursing a lower leg injury. The Hawkeyes are 6-2 in the Big Ten and 12-3 overall.
