“Sixty-two points is not going to be enough.”
Those were some of the first words from Chris Collins following his team’s 75-62 loss at the hands of the Iowa Hawkeyes, and they could not be more true.
A lot of the focus from last night’s game will be on the ‘Cats’ inability to stop Luka Garza, who dominated with 27 points and an ungodly 81.1 true shooting percentage.
Still, Northwestern managed to keep the Hawkeyes under the 79.6 points per game average they held coming into Welsh-Ryan Arena, even despite the fact that Iowa shot an uncharacteristic 45.
