Iowa basketball: Big Four Classic fizzles out with Hawks beatdown of UNI

The Iowa basketball team beat the UNI Panthers this weekend and with it came a close to the Big Four Classic.

By now, Iowa basketball fans know that the annual Big Four Classic between the four Division I basketball teams, Iowa, Iowa State, Northern Iowa, and Drake is ending. Iowa pulled out and will not be participating anymore.

Are we sad to see it go? Maybe not the concept of the Big Four Classic itself, but it will be a shame to not see Iowa playing Drake and/or UNI every year.

Much has already been said about the reasons behind why Iowa decided it was best for them to go their own separate way.
