First half thoughts

it's been a while since i posted anything during a game...

• Iowa started off with the Car-no-win-dy offense: shot clock buzzers on their first two possessions
• John Shurna is 2nd in the conference in scoring. does he have a shot at first team all-Big Ten? not a chance, i would think.
  
• i counted at least two three-second violations by Iowa
• a lot of bench minutes so far tonight. obviously it looks like this one won't be close, so i wonder if BC is already preparing the starters for having to win four straight in Indy next month
• John Shurna was a missed free throw away from equaling Iowa's first-half point total
