After a week of rest, the Iowa Hawkeyes got back on track Saturday night as they throttled Utah State 94-75 in the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It was a much needed bounce back after taking a drubbing in Ames their last time out over a week ago. On Saturday, after a back and forth first half, it was the Hawkeyes who did the drubbing.
Iowa came out firing, shooting the ball well all night, but struggled early to get into a rhythm ton the defensive side of the ball. Utah State carved up the Iowa defense with pick and roll action that gave way to a number of easy layups and kick outs for wide open looks from beyond the arc.
