Great game plan: Steve Pikiell and company had a great game plan in place for Rutgers and for 35 minutes, the team executed it to perfection. They contained Jok, they got open shots and they got the stops they needed. You can have faith that once Rutgers gets things going (and that’s probably years from now), the Scarlet Knights will be well prepared, both on the road.
Iowa’s defense: Down 8, with less than 10 minutes left, Iowa decided to press and get really active to try and turn Rutgers over. This really messed the Scarlet Knights up on offense.
