Northwestern now behind the woodshed in March Madness action today.

In other hoops news, what the heck kind of boxscore is this?

Much like Texas football against OU, the Longhorns couldn't figure out how to play with a lead.

If I had my tin hat on, which I don't, I'd question the Longhorns' motives. A 20pt second half is hard to do.

Did you see Fran Mcaff lite up the player after the game for shooting a shot while up 33 with 3 seconds on the clock....

PSU was down 28-22 to Northwestern before winning 67-60. Minnesota only scored 19 against PSU in the 1st half earlier this year. MSU and PSU were tied 24-24 at half earlier this year. Wisky led PSU 18-13 at half earlier this year.

I know PSU's not a high scoring team, and their team defense is stout ... but it's not that uncommon to have a low-scoring half in college hoops.

Interesting thing about Iowa today…in putting up 1.53 points/possession, this was their best offensive game of the KenPom era, which covers the past 21 seasons.

When you score 40 in the first half, its actually quite rare to score 20 in the second half.

Well, when you get into specific lopsided scenarios, everything's pretty rare, but with the proliferation of 3s, it's pretty common for teams who aren't that great to go cold for long stretches, and teams to catch fire and put up big numbers in a short period of time. Just this year, UT v. Seton Hall was 37-37 at half, and then it was 27-23 the rest of the way. It happens.
