I didn't want to go back and re-watch Thursday night's game between Iowa and #4 Iowa State, but I did anyway. After experiencing the game live, I honestly didn't think it was going to be very enjoyable to sit through what I remember being 39 minutes of bad basketball. Sure the ending was great, but the rest of the game sucked, right?
Well, as it turns out, I was wrong.
Perhaps knowing the final outcome made it easier to stomach what was mostly a brilliant performance by Fran McCaffery's Hawkeyes. Regardless, I was stunned by how much I misremembered from the game and given the magnitude of the event, I wanted to share my thoughts with you, our faithful readership.
