Following another road loss by double digits, it was time to fire up the podcast machine. Tom Kakert and Matt Randazzo are back and discussing the Hawkeyes 82-65 loss to Ohio State on Monday night. 

It was different than the previous two losses that saw the Hawkeyes fall behind by huge margins in the first half, but the result was close to the previous three road games. We look at the woes for the Iowa offense, which struggled to score the basketball consistently for most of the game. We examine the fact that for most of the game Iowa had only four players score a point and that didn’t include Brock Harding and Josh Dix, who really struggled on Monday night in Columbus. 

We look at the road ahead, which continues in about eight days when Iowa hosts Purdue and then they host Wisconsin. Those two games become must win in a lot of ways as the Hawkeyes hope to not be left out of the Big Ten Tournament, which only invites 15 of 18 schools this year. 

We then wrap up the quick podcast with a look at very good football recruiting news that arrived in Iowa City after a big junior day this weekend. Iowa picked up three offensive line commits this weekend. What does it mean for the class and specifically the position group for the Class of 2026.
