Each weekday, our college hoops experts discuss the biggest issues, trends and themes in college basketball.
1. What did Iowa do well when it took down Michigan State on Dec. 30? And can the Hawkeyes do it again with Denzel Valentine playing for the Spartans this time around?
Andy Katz: Can they? Sure. Will they? Probably not. Denzel Valentine is back, and while he may not be 100 percent he should be healthy enough to cause problems for the Hawkeyes. The Breslin Center will be pumped for this rematch.
