Wonder why no Malcolm the last couple mins. Surely he could have drawn a defender or 2 on those oob plays without exerting too much energy. I know we're probably trying to rest him but seems like a missed opportunity

Probably the old 2 fouls thing.

I didn't realize he had 2, musta been looking at my phone when it was announced or something. Good decision by groce then, don't need him picking up a cheapie. Carry on

If we can get Malcolm and Finke going in the 2nd half, keep up the defense, and avoid any long droughts I like our chances

ha ha, yes, all true
So many games are going to be played on an uneven floor this year.
Have to put some of my satisfaction in the "watching for improvement" category
Enjoyed the 1st half

Batss-Diop trying to reprise Levert, driving inside. We're doing a bit better job on keeping in front of him. Not very impressed with osu's offense. If we D-board better we could steal this one. osu length bothering MH. Need someone else to step up on O; any frosh will do. Go Illini.

I love how Morris keeps talking about how young the Ohio State 5 on the floor is. Heck, we had four freshmen playing minutes in that half.

While we're waiting for the second half, here is a weird scheduling fact.
At the end of January, Iowa will be done with MSU, Purdue and Maryland.
All 5 of their games against the top teams will be over

Would liked to have seen Nunn really attack on last layup. Loving guarding him and he probably wouldn't have put up much resistance having 2 fouls.

Good to see MH get the ball in his hands.
Been so busy on D, we haven't seen much from him at this end

Whoa, I just checked the box score and noticed the FT differential. What gives?
