Iowa Hawkeyes
Last time out, Iowa hosted the Illinois Fighting Illini and earned a hard-fought 81-79 win. The Fighting Illini were impressive in this one, but they could not finish the game and will be disappointed with the loss. Iowa used the home court energy to grab the lead with under six minutes to go and were able to hold on for the big win. Iowa trailed by as many as eight points, led by five, and just missed covering the -3.0-point spread.
Tony Perkins had 32 points, three rebounds, two assists, and two steals on the day. Kris Murray added 19 points, seven rebounds, three assists, and two steals in the victory.
Through 23 games, Iowa is scoring 81.5 points per game, shooting 45.8% from the field, and assisting on 16.3 made shots. The Hawkeyes are allowing 73.5 points, grabbing 37.3 rebounds, blocking 3.8 shots, and stealing the ball 6.4 times.
Purdue Boilermakers
Purdue visited the #21 Indiana Hoosiers and left with a 79-74 defeat. The Hoosiers were ready for this one as they jumped out to an early lead and led by 15 points at halftime. Chipping away slowly but surely, Purdue got themselves back into the game and made this a very tense final five minutes. Purdue trailed by as many as 16 points, never led by more than one, and lost this pick ‘em.
Zach Edey had 33 points, 18 rebounds, two assists, and three blocks in the loss.
After 24 games, Purdue is scoring 74.0 points per game, shooting 46.3% from the field, and assisting on 15.5 made shots. The Boilermakers are allowing 61.1 points, grabbing 39.3 rebounds, blocking 4.0 shots, and stealing the ball 4.8 times.
