Iowa's two superstars got back on track as Northwestern came to town on Sunday afternoon. Outside of the first ten minutes of play, Northwestern never had a chance in this one. The Wildcats started off the game hot from the field, while the Hawkeyes missed a bunch of open looks early on. Despite Northwestern shooting the ball well to begin the game, their lead never got bigger than 4 points, when they took an 18-14 lead off a Tre Demps three-pointer with just under twelve minutes left to play in the half.
Little did Northwestern know, that once Demps hit that shot, the game would soon be all but over.
