Iowa basketball: Hawks get early test in B1G/ACC Challenge

Remember the last time a Hawkeyes team was in the Carrier Dome? The football team stopped Syracuse eight consecutive times at the goal line in double overtime to preserve a 20-13 win in September 2006.

The Iowa basketball time will try to repeat that performance in a sense when they square off against Jim Boeheim‘s Syracuse squad in early December.

It will mark the first time the two teams have met since Syracuse edged Iowa 66-63 in the 2014 2K Classic.

Last season, the Hawkeyes knocked off Pittsburgh at Carver-Hawkeye Arena 69-68 in the B1G/ACC Challenge.
