IOWA CITY, Iowa -- Jeff Horner scored 20 points, Brody Boyd had 19 and Iowa made the shots it needed during a foul-filled second half to beat Ohio State 79-65 Saturday night.
In a ragged game stopped constantly by whistles, Iowa (10-6, 3-2 Big Ten) broke a four-game losing streak to Ohio State at home and sent the struggling Buckeyes (9-9, 1-4) to their fifth loss in six games.
The officials called 57 fouls -- 33 on Ohio State -- and the two teams shot 74 free throws.
Pierre Pierce added 15 points, three blocks and three steals for Iowa, which led by 10 at halftime and never let Ohio State get closer than eight in the second half.
Ohio State played without leading scorer Tony Stockman, whose future with the team is in question. He did not make the trip and coach Jim O'Brien said he wasn't sure if Stockman wanted to continue playing.
Brandon Fuss-Cheatham led the Buckeyes with 17 points, 10 in the final 2:51, and J.J. Sullinger scored 15.
Ohio State shot just 35.6 percent and was 3-for-15 on 3-pointers.

Penn State (8-8, 2-3) was trying to respond with its third home victory in conference play after two disastrous road losses to Michigan State and Illinois.

MADISON, Wis. -- Devin Harris scored a career-high 30 points and Mike Wilkinson added a career-high 24 for Wisconsin.

MINNEAPOLIS -- Bracey Wright scored 22 points and A.J. Moye added 20, including six in overtime, as Indiana send Minnesota to its fifth-straight Big Ten loss.

Sean Kline scored 13 points in the second half for Indiana. George Leach scored a season-high 12 points, all in the first half, and Marshall Strickland also had 12 for the Hoosiers.
