Even after giving up all those 3s in Iowa, feels like our FT shooting and inability to dictate tempo was what cost us the game.

We actually held Iowa to their lowest point total at home in regulation (76).  Overtime was another story.

And we also scored only 76 against their garbage defense.

Wanted to note that Nick Bahe had a podcast about Nebraska where he mentioned that Iowa St, Texas A&M, and Ole Miss ran similar no-middle defenses.

KenPom has them as the 5, 12, and 11th best defenses in adjusted defensive efficiency. Nebraska comes in at 21st.

Without seeing what anyone actually runs, Iowa St is the odd one out here because they're the only one not giving up a ton of 3s
