Another furious comeback. Another season-saving with for the Iowa Hawkeyes (18-11, 10-8) in a rousing 112-106 victory over the Michigan State Spartans (17-11, 9-8) which featured a 13-point comeback inside of 2 minutes.
Kris Murray led the Hawks with 26 points on 8/19 shooting and 8/11 from the line. Tony Perkins was huge with 4/5 shooting from deep and two second-chance baskets which extended the lead for Iowa in overtime. Payton Sandfort regained his shot with 22 points and 6/10 shooting from deep, including the game-tying basket which sent the game to overtime.
Throughout the bulk of the game, it felt like too little, too late for the Hawkeyes as Michigan State’s shooting was downright insane.
