This isn’t going to be an easy game by any means. Iowa comes into this contest ranked as the No. 18 team in the nation. The Hawkeyes also get to play this game at home, which is a massive advantage in the Big Ten.
Iowa has won five out of their last six games with their only loss coming to a ranked Maryland team on the road. This Hawkeyes bunch is playing well and with a lot of confidence as of late. They need this win to continue making a push for a double-bye in the Big Ten Tournament.
