Summary
The Iowa basketball team upset top-seeded Florida in the NCAA Tournament, with a game-winning shot in the final moments of the game. The Hawkeyes beat Florida’s last-second strategy, which was to foul and send Iowa to the free throw line. Iowa player Alvaro Folgueiras was involved in a scuffle with Florida’s Alex Condon in the first half, but was not ejected. Folgueiras later hit the game-winning three-pointer, and his teammates trolled the Gators after the game.
Our Reading
The routine arrives with confidence.
Florida’s analytical last-second strategy gets mocked by Iowa’s game-winning shot. The Gators’ coach, Todd Golden, wanted to send the Hawkeyes to the free throw line, but it backfired. Folgueiras, who was involved in a scuffle earlier in the game, hits the game-winning three-pointer. The Hawkeyes celebrate, and their season lives on. “March Madness” is all about the upsets, and this one was no exception.
Original observation: When “strategy” becomes a euphemism for “we lost”.
