Iowa State basketball: Comeback over Iowa receives wrong attention

Hilton Coliseum is easily one of the top 10 toughest places to play in the country. One of those reasons is that regardless of any opponent’s lead, the Cyclones somehow always have a shot. It happened again in the unlikeliest scenario in their 83-82 victory over the Hawkeyes.

Jared Uthoff made everything in the first half. He accepted the role as “team obliterator” and knocked down 30 points in one half of basketball. 30 POINTS ON THE ROAD. Iowa State had 35 total team points at halftime.
