One of the greatest comebacks ever. Iowa scores 23 points in 90 seconds
- Thread starter Chishawk1425
- Start date
2 games I kept thinking of heading into OT. Our comeback in east lansing after Chris street’s passing and other one was that UNI referenced game choking away game against A & M.
I’m Still in shock

.001% chance to win probably with 30 seconds left?
Sure we will see one of those win probability charts on espn or somewhere.
Are math classes optional in Iowa, these days?
Reminded me of the comeback at Illinois in 1987.
Those Murray boys have been involved in some real sleepers this past 24 hrs😂
Welfare check on Kenyon!
Can you imagine if someone had said with 90 seconds left MSU would have 91 points AND score another 10, and then be tied in regulation I would have done n immediate search for drugs.
I went to Tucson for the first round in March '87. We beat Santa Clara then UTEP played Lute's Arizona team. We were rooting for UTEP of course as we had already won and didn't want to play Arizona on their home court with their loser/obnoxious fans. ( Yeah the #2 seed ( Iowa ), was lined up to play the #9 seed on their home court....)
It looked like Lute had it in the bag with under 2 minutes to go and a 9 point lead, working the 4 corner offense, still had the 45 second shot clock, but Jeep Jackson caught fire and UTEP somehow tied up the game in regulation. UTEP had fouled out 3 starters and one bench guy, yet outscored Arizona 19-12 in OT to knock them out. Booing, obnoxious loser fans, despite the refs whistling UTEP for 34 fouls to Arizona's 22. Arizona had Sean Elliot and James Lofton ( who mostly played MLB for Cleveland ), Steve Kerr missed most of the season with a knee injury. UTEP's Tim Hardaway was just a freshman and Jeep Jackson would die over the summer of an undiagnosed heart condition...

The craziest part is msu didn't even choke at the line.
I've never seen a team make that many freethrows and still lose.

Insane. 59.3% from the field. 73.3 for 3 and 86.1 from ft line and they still lost.
Yeah, I was going to say that only a Fran team can score 100 and lose a college game but also only a Fran team can give up over 100 and still win.
Thanks for showing our highlights CBS AT&T at the half 4th best comeback in NCAA history
Nope and i watched it wire to wire halftime of Auburn Kentucky game
Amazing performance in the final minute, and then in overtime to win this game. It was a joy to be able to watch the way the Hawkeyes fought back and got a much-needed win.
Lots of accolades to go around, but I wanted to give a special shout-out to Perkins. I don’t think enough is being said about the two tip-ins he had in overtime that helped us keep and extend the lead. Huge plays — and ones that we don’t always seem to get. Momentum is everything in overtime play, and those two buckets ensured we kept it.
Gutsy, gutsy win today. Great to see it for the team.

So why aren't we criticizing Izzo for his lousy defense giving Iowa over 100 points and 59 in the second half? In a face paced game that Iowa likes to play, the other team if they don"t slow the game down is also going to score a lot of points.
