Iowa got a needed Big Ten basketball win Tuesday while Minnesota continued to struggle in their game.

Freshman Luka Garza scored 17 points with a career-high 16 rebounds, Tyler Cook added 17 points and Iowa walloped Wisconsin 85-67, snapping a two-game losing streak. Isaiah Moss scored 15 points for the Hawkeyes, who won for just the second time in seven games and for the first time at home in league play.

Bryant McIntosh and Vic Law scored 18 points apiece for Northwestern, leading a spirited comeback from a 10-point deficit in the first half to beat reeling Minnesota 77-69. Nate Mason had 25 points and nine assists for the Gophers, who lost for the sixth time in their last seven games.
