After digging itself an eight-point hole early in the game, Iowa controlled most of the contest. In its 83-68 victory, the Hawkeyes punched their ticket to this week's Big Ten Tournament. On the other hand, Nebraska will not be making the trip to Indianapolis for the conference tournament.

When Sandfort has it going offensively for Iowa, it typically means that he's got the 3-point shot working. While Sandfort did finish with a pair of made 3-pointers, the 6-foot-8 forward found other ways to score against the Huskers and that was pivotal for Iowa.

The Huskers will miss the conference tournament this week after closing the regular season on five-game losing streak.
