(Cliff Jette/Associated Press)IOWA CITY — It was “Beauty and the Beast.”The beautiful part from the perspective of the Iowa men’s basketball team was Tony Perkins finishing a drive and, for all practical purposes, Wisconsin in the Hawkeyes’ 88-86 overtime win over the No. Plus, this was the Hawkeyes’ first win of the season over a Top 25 team. Harding scored six points and was very good for the rest of the half, and the Hawkeyes closed to within 47-43. Wisconsin made just one 3-pointer after halftime while Perkins scored 16 of his 18 points.
