Last night was truly one of the best comebacks I have ever seen by an Iowa basketball team. Despite entering the game as 10-point favorites, the Hawks needed every single second of last night’s contest at Carver Hawkeye Arena to pull off a win, and for 37 minutes, it looked more likely that the Hawks would be losing their 6th game of the season.
Nobody could argue that this game was pretty or even that the Hawks deserved to win, but good teams find ways to win even when nothing is going well. More importantly, great players find ways to make plays when the game is on the line.
