A day after a disappointing showing by the University of Iowa football team in the Rose Bowl, the Iowa men's basketball team helped wash away the painful memories from New Year's Day with a win over the 14th-ranked Purdue Boilermakers on the road. This was a game in which every Hawkeye not named "Jarrod Uthoff" in the first half played terribly. The first half was so bad that Iowa found themselves down 17 at the break, and it looked like a second straight day where Iowa fans could just zone out for the second half without fear of missing anything important.
