they go..
55.1% FGs
42.9% 3FG
86.4% on 19-22 FTs
with a 33 to 19 rebounding advantage. At HOME?

That might explain 1/3 of the problem.

Indiana had 7 less TO's and made 14 3's in a 2 point game. That's pretty much the whole problem right there.

To answer your question... zero teams in the country would lose that game. Zero
I'm willing to bet there is one.

33-20 rebounding margin = 13 more possessions. 17-10 turn over margin = 7 less possessions. For a +6 in possessions. 19 made FTs vs 6 made FTs = 13 pts more for Iowa than Indiana. Lets not ignore the 9 - 3pt shots we made. 14 for Indiana vs 9 for Iowa = 15 pt differential. That's practically erased by the 13 pt made FT differential.
....you sure about your "calculations"?

How many teams shoot 70% in the first half and have only a 3 point lead!

Y'all making me laugh... this team couldn't guard a high school team.

Their defense was just a tad less-worse than our defense.
Is it really absurd if it happens most games?
The lack of production at the 2 or 3 is a problem

I would love to see Fran's record in games decided by 2 or 3 points or less.

This is going strictly off of 3 points or less. FYI: There were a lot more losses by 4 points than wins.
2010/11= 2-5
2011/12= 3-1
2012/13= 1-4
2013/14= 1-3
2014/15= 1-1
2015/16= 2-3 (I didn't count the exhibition loss to Augustana 74-76)
2016/17= 2-2
2017/18 so far= 0-2
Total by 3 points or less= 12-21
Record W/L by 4 points is 4-10.
Total by 4 points or less= 16-31

Wow! That's an amazing stat. Really, you should be 50% in those games. That is ridiculous.
If we would have won half of them, it would have been good for an average of one more win per year. If we could have won one more game each year, we would have made the tourney 5 years ago, not been in the play in game 4 years ago, probably wouldn't have been up against a 2 seed 3 and 2 years ago, and would have made the tourney last year.
