Mar 28, 2026; Houston, TX, USA; Illinois Fighting Illini head coach Brad Underwood talks with an official in the first half against the Iowa Hawkeyes during an Elite Eight game of the South Regional of the men's 2026 NCAA Tournament at Toyota Center. Mandatory Credit: Troy Taormina-Imagn Images HOUSTON -- The NCAA Tournament South Region final between ninth-seeded Iowa and third-seeded Illinois on Saturday experienced an extended delay when the horn stuck with 7:43 remaining in the first half and the Hawkeyes leading 22-20.
The delay lasted more than 10 minutes, and when the game resumed, the center-hung scoreboard was no longer operational.
The Iowa-Illinois winner will advance to the Final Four in Indianapolis next weekend.
