@BraydonRoberts5 on the keys:

After the timeout, Iowa decided that this season would be one for the ages. Iowa’s triangle-and-two defense clamped down and forced Louisville into a bunch of bad shots — and a bunch of Hawkeye transition opportunities to run the Cardinals out of the gym.

Iowa poured on buckets while Louisville went ice cold. A Clark steal and score with 40 seconds left capped another 11-0 run and gave Iowa a 78-57 lead, less than 8 minutes after seeing its lead dip to 1. Louisville got a basket to end the quarter, but Iowa led 78-59 heading to the fourth, and the celebration began in Seattle.
