msu was up by 11 with 1:06 to go and lost in overtime by 5.....you can't make this stuff up........I thought the franny-kelly staredown was wacky , but it takes second place to the comeback by the idiots..........
I guess this outcome helps us as i was worried about msu not having to play a makeup game against the goofers.....
Shades of the fiasco regarding scUM getting that title by not playing a full schedule a few years back.......that result still burns my gonads at ole kev handing mr. coward that tainted crown ............

They also only missed 1 free throw down the stretch. So it's not like they pissed it away. Iowa just coud.not.miss.
Ouch my soul.

I kinda feel like there was a bit of a Norm Stewart-Kiwane Garris situation there, where the ref might have T'd Fran up again, but just figured the hell with it because he assumed the game was over.
Maybe this has been discussed and I've missed it, but Hummel sounds exactly like Bilas to me.
The stare down was hysterical.
ESPN just showed a graphic that 33 points were scored in the last 1:30 of regulation between MSU (10) and Iowa (23).
Hitting the three over the Umbrella defense was something else.
I’m sorry. But you have to foul under 6 seconds up three. You just have to.
I know it’s a game of runs but Iowa scoring 23 in 1:30 is beyond belief.
One of my daughters and her husband are Iowa alums. He's a great sports fan, roots for his team, but is honest and reasonable with his assessments (like I try to be). I watched this whole game and waited to call him until the end of regulation, just to hear his excitement, which would have been the same as mine a couple days ago. He didn't answer, so I called my daughter. He was not home and wasn't watching the game. He had agreed to take his briother to an indoor golf range to help him (just got clubs for the first time for his birthday). I gave her a synopsis and told her if he hadn't recorded it have him call me so I can explain the entire game for him.

6. Penn State: 8-9
6. Wisconsin: 8-9
7. Nebraska: 7-10
8. Ohio State: 3-14
9. Minnesota: 1-15
If we assume (as I do, relatively confidently) that Nebraska beats Minnesota at home and Purdue beats Indiana at home, these will be the standings when we square off in Columbus tomorrow:
1. Purdue: 14-4
2. Northwestern: 11-6
3. Illinois: 10-7
3. Maryland: 10-7
3. Michigan: 10-7

Then we also have this action tomorrow:
#21 Northwestern (11-6) at Maryland (10-7
Wisconsin (8-9) at Michigan (10-7)
Rutgers (9-8) at Penn state (8-9)
Not sure whom to root for in the NU/UMD game or the RU/PSU game, but I VERY much want Wisconsin to win in Ann Arbor!

I still love the stare down that went on during the timeout. Earp vs. Clanton. How MSU lost that game will be one for the ages.

For those who missed it (like me) here are some highlights of the MSU/Iowa game. I'm assuming Matthew Loves Ball will soon post a more complete set of highlights.
Sparty allowed several uncontested threes in the last minute and a half, which was borderline criminal.
Izzo now 29-28 over the past three B1G seasons.

That's just incredible. I recall Duke came back from a similar deficit with a minute left at Maryland to win in OT ~ 20 years ago but I can't otherwise recall seeing anything like this.

I don't know who needs to hear this but the Sun Devils beat Arizona. 89 - 88.
On a beyond half court shot, no less.
