Iowa City, Iowa — Iowa’s Big Ten title hopes are fading fast. Seventh ranked Ohio State dominated the eighth ranked Hawkeyes down the stretch for a 89-85 win, handing the Hawkeyes their second home loss.
The Hawkeyes let an 11 point second half lead slip away.
That’s Hawkeye coach Fran McCaffery. A three and a half minute dry spell in the second half proved costly.
Jordan Bohannon had 18 points and Jack Nunge came off the bench with another strong effort with 18.
The Buckeyes finished with 14 three pointers and had several at crunch time.
