Jarrod Uthoff scored 14 points and Iowa defeated Rutgers, 81-47, on Thursday night.
The win snaps a two-game losing streak for Iowa (16-10, 7-6 Big Ten), and is just the third win in its last eight games.
Iowa coach Fran McCaffery and his team have a favorable schedule down the stretch too, as just two of their final five opponents have a winning conference record.
The Scarlett Knights (10-17, 2-12) never really competed in what became their 10th-straight loss, a streak that started immediately after they, somehow, beat No. 4 Wisconsin, 67-62, at home in Piscataway.
Uthoff’s 14, on 5-of-9 shooting, led all scorers. Aaron White added another 13 with eight boards.
Rutgers had just two players score in double figures — Myles Mack had 11 and D.J. Foreman scored 10.
