Josh Dix swished a game-winning 3-pointer just before the buzzer to give Iowa an 80-79 victory over Northwestern on Tuesday night in a Big Ten Conference opener for both teams.

Iowa was looking to throw the ball in bounds for a last-second, literally, chance to score some points to either tie or win the game. The ball was thrown to Dix, who ran back past the right side of the Hawkeyes logo at center court, and drained a three-point shot from about 30 feet as time expired to give Iowa the 80–79 victory.

Iowa defeated Northwestern 80-79 in stunning fashion Tuesday night to open Big Ten regular-season play when junior guard Josh Dix drilled a fadeaway 3-pointer from the logo as time expired in regulation.
