Iowa from the line. That’s ball game. Iowa is mostly a jump shooting team. RU would drive with no calls but Iowa got all the FT attempts. Not sure how that happens
Mission Accomplished. Refs had only one job and succeeded beyond all expectations.
2 things are true.
Iowa is very good and deserved to win
Bo Borowski made the game about himself

Borowski didn’t call all the technicals. Kelly Pfiefer or whatever his name is had a really quick whistle. Refs need to keep their composure too especially in games of this much importance. The double technicals on McCaffrey and Caleb were unnecessary and an overreaction and it gave Caleb his fourth foul.
Here’s what I find frustrating — Caleb has earned a good whistle. He’s the DPOY. The touch foul in the first half was ridiculous and the tech was way too quick. And, for a second team all conference player Ron gets zero respect. Ron gets bumped and hit on every drive and doesn’t get a fair share of calls
A foul can pretty much be called on every play, especially with the way the cylinder is defined. Can’t begrudge Iowa for our fouls against them they capitalized and hit 25-27. What drives me crazy is the inconsistency of no calls on our end. We are making plays at the basket and getting mugged, where are the calls there?
Its rather clear that Rutgers commits too many fouls on defense and doesn't get enough fouls called on offense.The coaching staff needs to review game tapes and determine what techniques could be taught to the players to change the discrepancy in fouls being called.
There were quite a few fouls called on Rutgers while Iowa was just inbounding or bringing the ball up the court. Fouling that far from the basket is beyond dumb.
