BLOOMINGTON — A season that began with high hopes is sliding toward mediocrity. Armaan Franklin’s jumper with 1.6 seconds remaining was the game winner as Indiana edged Iowa 67-65 on Sunday, as you heard on AM-1300 KGLO. Franklin’s winner came seconds after Jordan Bohannon tied the game with a three pointer.

Iowa roared out to a 17-4 lead but first half foul trouble allowed the Hoosiers to climb back into the game.

It was the Hawkeyes’ fourth loss in five games as they drop to 7-5 in the Big Ten. Iowa shot only 37 percent for the game. Hawkeye coach Fran McCaffery.

It continues a frustrating streak for the Hawkeyes who have tumbled to the middle of the Big Ten.

Iowa hosts Rutgers on Wednesday with a 6 o’clock tipoff, with the pre-game starting at 5 o’clock on AM-1300 KGLO.

 

Valparaiso, Indiana — A 20-point deficit was too much to overcome for Drake as the 25th-ranked Bulldogs lost at Valparaiso 74-57 on Sunday, ending their win streak to start the season at 18.

That’s Drake coach Darian DeVries. The Bulldogs shot a chilly 37 percent, including two of 13 from three point range.

The Bulldogs are 18-1 and return to action Wednesday against UNI.
