WTF? I know we've been playing well at home but to beat 3 ranked teams in a year as an NIT team and guys beat up.. what am I missing here??
 
Maryland is just a product of their schedule and we've beaten better teams than them at home.

Maryland is 49th in KenPom.
 
Anything can happen in the league this year. I have a feeling that after the NW beat down the Hawks will come out breathing fire.

Consistency in effort on defense is the key for the Hawkeyes.
 
The separation between the "better" teams and the "lesser" teams in conference this year is significantly smaller than in years past.
Very True. This will be a wild race. Unfortunately the young hawks are probably going to be to inconsistant to stay in it, but it will be interesting. I'd bet they play the spoiler late in the conference season.
 
Don't look at line unless you gamble. If you gamble, these types of line are normal. Home teams get a lot of love.
 
I think Maryland getting any points is a lock...so I'd bet the Hawks. I'm feeling Mushy lately.
 
Chris Street anniversary. They should show the team his highlights before they take the floor. Always max effort.

I think this will be decided based on whether we can find anyone to stay in front of Trimble. If he can get to the paint at will (which the NW game suggests he will - ISU game, not so much, so I don't know how to really predict it), we're going to give up a lot of lay ups and dunks just like @ NW. However, Chris Street's anniversary has seen us whoop what was considered a much better Wisconsin team in recent years, too.
