Five of our last eight .......

on the road. If the Hawks can hold serve at home and win at least one on the road I think they are dancing. This team doesn't have much margin for error, they need to bring it every night.


Purdue and Indiana I have as losses. We should beat Minny at their place but you never know. Wisconsin always is tough at home, toss-up. Northwestern will be a toss-up. OSU is reeling but beat us badly. Nebraska should be a win but Walker gives us fits and they beat us like a drum at their place. MSU is always tough late in the season, even on the road.

It'll be an exciting but nail biting month of basketball for the Hawks.

100% agreement with that analysis…..tough stretch to finish the season. Need our guys to stay healthy and play well…

 

[BioHawk]

Maybe it's my imagination but Iowa always seems to have a rough February schedule. Nothing wrong with that I suppose, you still need to win your games.

Beating Purdue will take the grace of the Almighty, every other game could go either way it seems.

Assuming we stay healthy and keep playing the way we have, we get revenge on home court against Nebraska, osu and msu. Wouldn’t be surprised if we curb stomp Nebraska and osu. Imo, we simply cannot lose that game in Minnesota. They are awful and we just can’t let that one get away. Indiana and Purdue are likely losses. That leaves northwestern and Wisconsin On the road. Win one of those and the hawks finish the season with 20 wins. Not to shabby when you go back to that 3 game losing streak with a loss to eiu. I like our chances better against Wisconsin, but we shall see.

We will probably win one and lose one we shouldn’t just because. Should be fun. Between the men and women hawks, pretty entertaining.

It's the Big Ten - not many cupcakes when you think about it.

Mulvy and Big O have 10 fouls to give between them. They may use them all.

I think Mulvy could run the court on Edey,.. might get some opportunities that way.

Is Big O playing or still hurt. We could use a few bodies to throw at that giant 🍁. I think we can match up everywhere except center. Need to run, run, run!!

Kinda where I am at. I will also be shocked if Iowa wins at Indiana.

Indiana was projected to be the best team in conference and when they have all their pieces they probably are.

Their 5 star freshman are coming on strong to go with their upperclassmen getting healthy.

Once they get Johnson back they are a final 4 caliber team imo.

 

[RocknRollface]

I think Hawks have a better chance at Purdue than Indiana.

If Kris can stay out of foul trouble for a half id like to see Iowa go small in the second half, spread the floor with all shooters and make Eddy defend Kris out at the 3 line.

On defense sell out to swarm Eddy and take your chances with them shooting outside shots.

Its a low likelihood of working but any other way of defending him is a no likelihood of working.
