Iowa is getting killed by those screens at the top of the key. The help isn’t being aggressive enough and LSU is just blowing right by them. But credit to LSU to sticking to the plan if it’s working. They’ve been the better team all night, Iowa can’t cope with LSU’s execution and athleticism. Great game. 🔥🔥
