So I’m just happy to have the group of guys that I do.” The Iowa State product was limited to just six points on 2-of-6 shooting from the field. Five of those attempts came from three-point range .The clear discrepancy between the starting guards made up for Indiana’s clear advantage when it comes to depth.
