After scoring 53 points in a loss to rival Michigan State last Saturday, the Wolverines went on the road and played Iowa on Thursday — the maize and blue didn’t struggle scoring this time.
But the Wolveirnes faltered late.
Michigan entered halftime with a 43-40 lead and the Wovlerines had a 10 point lead late in the second half. But Iowa clawed its way back into the game by hitting some key 3s.
Michigan was up by four with 20 seconds left and the Wolverines did the unthinkable.
Kobe Bufkin fould Payton Sandfort on a 3 point attempt and of course the shot went into. That sent Sandfort to the line where he hit his foul shot.
Dug McDaniel missed a shot at the buzzer and the game went into overtime. The Hawkeyes controlled overtime and Michigan fell apart.
The Wolverines managed to only score five points in overtime and Michigan lost 93-84 to Iowa and it was the Wolverines’ second loss in a row.
Here are our five takeaways.
