Iowa basketball‘s three-year NCAA Tournament streak is on the verge of ending this season. The Hawkeyes will need to win the Big Ten tournament, barring a massive turnaround to end the season, to get in this year.
While their offense has had some ups-and-downs this season, such as only scoring 54 points against Northwestern or 64 points against Illinois, it’s been the backbone of this team. The Hawkeyes are 31st in the nation and second in the Big Ten in scoring this season at 81 points per game.
It’s the most a Fran McCaffery coached team has averaged since 2013-14 when they averaged 81.
