Rutgers grinds out 48-46 victory over Iowa

It continues to be a theme that teams don't go into Jersey Mike’s Arena and come away with a victory. On Wednesday night, it was defense that was king for Rutgers.

The Scarlet Knights held Iowa to just 28% shooting on the night and 40 points below their season average to pickup a 48-46 victory. The dream of a second consecutive NCAA Tournament berth is alive and well as Rutgers sits just one game out of first place in the Big Ten.

On their final possession, the Scarlet Knights got the benefit of a foul call that was questionable at best.
