Kris Murray scored a career-high 29 points and pulled down 11 more boards in a chaotic win over Indiana, 83-74.
The first half had no shortage of highfalutin’ fireworks as the Hoosiers netted 46 in the first frame alone. Miller Kopp hit a 3 in the opening seconds of the game, and that’s when I told myself it was going to be one of those kinds of nights.
Kopp didn’t do much more throughout, but a lack of discipline around the Iowa team set the stage early.
It’s important to mention the dominance of Trayce Jackson-Davis and Race Thompson (combined for 21 and 8) in the first 20 minutes.
