Why Iowa Lost Yesterday

1. Indiana took 13 more shots than Iowa.
2. Indiana generated 15 offensive rebounds (9 more than Iowa)
3. Indiana generated 15 assists (10 more than Iowa)

Why #1 matters: Indiana is a bad shooting team. Poor shooting is negated when you get this many more chances.

Why #2 matters: We are unable to get defensive stops which is why it's hard for Iowa to maintain a lead.

Why #3 matters: Our offense was only able to generate 5 assists. That tells me we have a stagnant half court offense that isn't able to breakdown a defense and create scoring opportunity for others.

So what's the answer to fix this type of output? I can't attribute it to lack of hustle or desire, because I thought both teams played hard yesterday.
