The Syracuse basketball squad will face a tough opponent yet again in the exciting Big 10/ACC Challenge. The Iowa Hawkeyes made the NCAA Tournament Round of 32 last season and is a team that returns a few of its top players to the floor.
When it comes to this matchup, this could be a hard team for SU to have success against. Iowa is generally a team that relies on ball movement, unselfish play, and scrappy defense. They will not kill themselves with turnovers, or missed assignments. Fran McCaffery is a very good coach that normally gets overlooked by the national media.
