[Herky] 2 amazing games - but I have questions

[jehauck at bellsouth.net]

First, I can't imagine a more incredible return to Carver-Hawkeye Arena than
I experienced this weekend.  But I'm curious:

 

1.	At the end of the men's game, after MSU missed the second free throw
and we had the ball down three.  Why didn't Izzo have his team foul us to
prevent the 3-point basket?

 

2.	At the end of the women's game, I wonder why the IU coach didn't
have the shooter deliberately miss the 2nd free throw.  If Iowa had to
rebound and go all the way down the court, I don't see how we could have
made a shot there.  Or would we have just called a timeout after the rebound
and gotten the ball at midcourt anyway?  But there would have been less than
1.5 seconds, maybe not enough time.

 

I can't even remember the last time I was in CHA.  It opened the year after
I left Iowa City so I haven't been there many times.  The experience was a
lot of fun, and I loved the ESPN College Gameday - the atmosphere was just
electric.

 

Go Hawks!!
