That may have been the sloppiest half of college basketball I have ever seen.

Two Goopher students just shot FTs for 30 seconds at each goal.
The one kid won 1-0 and I’m not making that up.
Freshman laden 8 players only MN, torching Iowa defense now shooting 54% from floor
Yep, got to finish and defend better as Minny shot 54% to Iowa's 33%.
But lately the hawks have been scoring much better in the second half.
Minny in foul trouble.
Make half our layups, we’d be up 20
Missed layups, missed free throws and sleepwalking on half court defense. Lucky to be up at the half. An earlier TO might have been nice.
Hard to believe we are playing like this in Feb.
Hey at least he's got Caitlin Clark-esque shooting numbers at 4/14........problem is that's only equated to 10 pts because he went to the Luka Garza 1 for 2 School of FT Shooting.
They are low on numbers and if fouls are called in the second half, they'll be in trouble.
Speed them up with the press and they'll pile up the turnovers
He made 1 good play, he’s great! Wonder what his plus/minus is? Probably not great. Mccaffery boys have been very bad in half court defense. They are flat out getting picked on. MN coach finds the weak spot and exploits it
Can someone get in touch with Megan Gustafson and have her hold a clinic for the Men's team on how to make a ****ing layup
Yep, not an exaggeration either
Goofs have 9 turnovers; they are turning it over 30% of the time.
Rebounding is actually saving Iowa right now.
Points off turnovers:
9: Iowa
0: Minny
Offensive rebounds:
9: Iowa
0: Minny
2nd chance points:
6: Iowa
0: Minny

Shot accuracy is Iowa's Achilles Heel. Look at that last Kris Murray chance before the half. I'd say this team is doing most everything really well this season and I was legit more excited for this season than I have been for years. Even without Keegan or any big men down low. All of the shooting elements seemed like they would come together this year and they have when you look at it from a running plays perspective. They just can't make their shots. That's been their Achilles all season long.
13-39 vs 13-24 keeps a bad team close. 5-10 from ft line doesn’t help.
This is a team filled with players that seemingly do not understand their role on the team.
Defensive fundamentals are also obviously not stressed in this program when the coach’s kids don’t even follow them.

Lucky bounce after lucky bounce for Minnesota as well. Kid is sitting there picking his nose underneath the basket while the ball Plinko's 15 times from half court and right into his hands. Unreal.
Minnesota sucks... Iowa better stomp them in the 2nd half.

Not being a jerk, I am honestly curious as to why. No possession was established. You have to have the ball in your possession on the opposite side in 10 seconds. Clock was at 19 or 18 when Minnesota had the ball possessed. Did the deflections/mixed possession change that?
Clown shows don't tend to pack up and leave at halftime.
Once they're here, they'll get their money's worth. So sit back and "enjoy" the 2nd half for whatever garbage is about to ensue.............
PMac is far too slow to be defending the perimeter. When he has his hands down at his waste in front of the ball handler he might as well be spectating from the bench.
If Iowa executes their shots who really cares what Minnie does on their end of the floor? This team is made for shooting to the lead and staying there by outshooting their opponents.
Patrick has been better than cmac, but neither has been good. Nobody has been very good.
Well, you kinda do if you're a fan. We get emotionally invested.Well, you don't HAVE to...
