[Herky] Final Minnesota 102 Iowa 95 OT

Sat Dec 26 07:53:32 PST 2020

 - I tend to agree with the poor shooting - arguably our 3 best 3-pt shooters (Bohannon, Wieskamp, and Garza) went 4-19 last night.  - Looking at the box score I was pleasantly surprised the the Hawkeyes outrebounded Minny 55-38 including 27-11 on the offensive board.  - The refs had a tough night with very uneven foul calling throughout the game.  Garza is getting mauled every time he had the ball on the block and didn't get many calls.- Our free throw shooting continues to be a worry.- I have a perception that because of having such a veteran team, Fran and staff tend to give them more freedom to play rather than calling plays and defenses every time down the floor.  That may change and the players have to consider this loss a wake up.  How they're playing isn't getting it done.- Finally I thought that our late defense slackened off especially on their 2 hot shooters, Carr and Johnson.  - We may fall out of the top 10 with this loss.
Go Hawks!

 You can play great defense but if you can't get the ball in the basket you won't win many games.  I think our defense has improved from the start but our shooting is horrible.  With a decent percentage last night we would have scored 120 points.  First half shooting has been terrible these last three games.

I don't care about the starting lineup, I really don't. They won't play great defense, but they'll score a lot of points. Keegan Murray and Joe Toussaint need more minutes, however that works out. This team will win a lot of games and they'll be a tough out in March.

It seemed just about every FG that Iowa made was closely contested. Not so much on the other side.

Simply put we were outcoached in the last few minutes of regulation and in OT. Our guards are a liability if the threes are not falling and that hurts Garza’s game as he is easily double and triple teamed. Still do not feel comfortable with our in game adjustments and identification of the hot shooter. This loss is a big let down to the team. Big10 title is not going to be easy at all. Need to play Toussaint ad the starter and Bohannon come off the bench. Disappointed how we let the game slip in last few seconds. 🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁
