Iowa gives up 99 to USC, which is their most points of the year, exceeding 98 against UT-Arlington. They also significantly exceeded their previous most points against P5 competition (85 against Washington)

After listening to the announcers, I came to this conclusion - "If you're a team that is starting to figure things out, you hope like crazy that you're schedule shows that the next game you are hosting is the Iowa Hawkeyes." Amazing how much offensive improvement a team can show when they are allowed to match up against a Fran-to-Man defensive scheme.

Nice for Mizzou to hang a loss on Florida with a classic heat up the Grill game. Feels like if we ever ran into them it would be a dogfight with Grill and Perkins on that team.

Would have been nice for Arizona to put it together sooner and get a couple good non-con wins for the conference

Anyone notice Fran does zero coaching courtside? Just stands there with his arms folded. Night and day difference from TJ who coaches intensely the whole 40 minutes.
Well, to be fair, they hamstring him by taking away his teaching aids - can't kick laptops, can't throw chairs, can't call the refs names and can't punch them in the face. What do you expect him to do?

Mizzou looks like a very dangerous 4 seed type of team.

They had a hard non conference. The risk you run with a talented but inexperienced team.
Yes. Arizona definitely under-performed vs. preseason expectation, but it's beginning the level a bit.

16 in NET. 3-5 vs. Q1. No losses in Q-2-3-4.

Not a a top 25 resume yet (Net # probably a little higher than actual profile), but trending well.
