Nice gesture by the kid for sure. They were up by 8 at that point too so really not to big a deal.

Good story.

I would rather have my name along side Chris Street than by itself.

True. But with 2:15 left, NW could very likely come back. I applaud the gesture and the miss turned out not to matter. But Iowa is 13th in the B1G and 1 game up on Rutgers in B1G record. Tied for worst B1G record. Rutgers also beat Iowa 80-64.

Dude, this is obviously bigger than whether or not Iowa finishes 13th or 14th in the league. If this was the difference between them making the tournament or not, you'd have a point IMO.

All they need is 4 more wins and they are in the tourney.

Well then they are fucked. That’s more wins than they had in conference.
