Iowa Men's Basketball headed West to Palm Springs, California, for the Acrisure Classic this week.
The Hawkeyes entered their first game against Ole Miss with a perfect 5-0 record through the first five games of the series, but faced a tough test against the Rebels on Tuesday night.
Ole Miss was also 5-0 entering Tuesday's game, and was coming off a 72-65 win over Austin Peay last week.
Iowa faced its first true road test of the season, and Ole Miss gave them all they could handle.
The Rebels are led by a trio of solid guards in their starting lineup, and the Hawkeyes worked hard to contain them on the defensive end.
