You just wrote it was a shitty game by Iowa. Underachiever and the staff played no role in that?
Underwood encouraging a 27% three point shooter to fire 3s in a close game is terrible coaching.
The fact that game was close, was because Iowa was terrible on the glass.
Illinois played the same dumb game they been playing all year long. Tons of turnovers, brain dead 3 point shooting attempts. Just basic AAU ball. Most teams on their home court should blow out the opponent when the opponent has 18 turnovers, and home team hits about 90% from the line. Even with Mayer having his 1 hot game every 5 games, still should not have been close.
