Well, that was ugly.
Ohio State turned the ball over far too many times (14) against an Iowa team not known for its defense and it fed a Hawkeye offense that can really light it up when given the opportunity. It all led to a disappointing 75-62 loss that might have been a nail in the coffin to the Buckeyes’ conference title hopes.
It didn’t start out too bad for Ohio State. In fact, the Buckeyes got out to a double-digit lead early in the first half before Iowa began to take advantage of OSU mistakes. Still, the Hawkeyes went into the locker room just up by one point at the half.
