LIVE: Iowa routs No. 13 IU basketball in Big Ten action
No. 13 (USA Today) Indiana basketball enjoys the friendly confines of Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall for the final week of the regular season, starting Tuesday night against Iowa.
The Hoosiers (20-9, 11-7 Big Ten) are in a four-team tie for second place in the conference (Maryland, Northwestern, Michigan). The Hawkeyes (18-11, 10-8) are one game behind IU, in a three-way tie for sixth place (Illinois, Rutgers). Both have an opportunity to earn double bye for next week's Big Ten tournament in Chicago.
Indiana has won 6 straight home games, the last loss coming Jan. 8 vs. Northwestern. Iowa is 1-5 in its last 6 road games, the win coming over last-place Minnesota.
Trayce Jackson-Davis is likely to move up a rung on IU's career rebounding list. With a huge game, he could become the Hoosiers' career leader.
Zach Osterman and Tyler Tachman will have courtside updates, and we will have highlights and more. Please remember to refresh.

Four Iowa players are in double figures. Still just TJD for IU.
The energy in the building is about as low as I've seen it during a game. I don't blame the fans one bit. #iubb

Kris Murray has 24 points to lead Iowa. Trayce Jackson-Davis has 18 for IU. TJD has passed Alan Henderson for IU's career rebounds lead. He's at 1,092 and counting.
Indiana’s defense has struggled against elite offenses this season i.e. Iowa, Kansas, Arizona. Obviously, those offenses are good for a reason, but Indiana’s defense has really struggled. Is concerning if IU faces a high-powered offense in the NCAA tourney. #iubb

Kaleb Banks as Mike Woodson's first second-half sub tells a certain story. Woodson less into execution than effort tonight. #iubb

Iowa putting on offensive clinic - 12 assists, two turnovers; 64% from floor - because Hawkeyes are losing defenders with back cuts to rim and screens on perimeter. Iowa shooting great, but IU is letting these looks happen.

Iowa has shifted to the bold strategy of missing zero 3s the rest of the season. It could work. #iubb

Filip Rebraca's layup prompts an IU timeout.
Iowa's Kris Murray scores first, on a 3-pointer with 19:25 left. He hits another with 18:45 left.
IU coach Mike Woodson, Iowa coach Fran McCaffery have short pregame handshake
Could have something to do with this.
Xavier Johnson appears closer to returning
Mike Woodson said yesterday Xavier Johnson isn't playing tonight. Johnson has participated in every bit of pregame warmups and stretching to this point. One obvious way to settle this. #iubb

Jordan Geronimo is out for IU basketball
The sophomore forward was in a walking boot pregame. He averages 4.5 points and 2.6 rebounds in 13.1 minutes per game. Anthony Leal and Logan Duncomb are also out.
