[NU Sports] Carmody

He did clear the bench--subs played early and often from what I could see. A 
couple of times he tried going with mostly backups and Iowa made some runs, so a 
starter or two went back in here and there. I too am sometimes puzzled by how 
much Carmody relies on his starting 5, but not last night. 

Heck of a win. Another not-very-good opponent, but still impressive. And a very, 
very rare W in Iowa City!
