For the first time in the Chris Holtmann era, Ohio State (12-4, 2-3) has lost three games in a row, falling 72-62 to Iowa (14-3, 3-3). After dropping their last two contests to Michigan State and Rutgers, the Buckeyes continued to struggle and were unable to stop the skid in Iowa City, a place that has not been kind to OSU athletics in recent years.
Turnovers and foul trouble were the biggest issue for Ohio State this time around, as they turned the ball over a whopping 21 times and had 23 fouls as a team. The shooting was particularly poor as well, as they shot just 37 percent in a game where nothing seemed to go right for the guys in Scarlet.
