I see they lost to Okie State and Tulsa by single digits on the road. Hope we aren't sweating too much Friday.
Oral Roberts

Iowa will have to improve exponentially to avoid another L. ORU will be pretty similar to DePaul from an athleticism perspective. I doubt they shoot 70% from the 3 in the first half, but with Iowa's D, all things are possible.
I watched some of Oral Roberts this year.
Iowa could very well struggle again tomorrow. Iowa's slow rotations will haunt them as they were able to capitalize on Oklahoma State when they got heavy feet defensively. They have an active big too who has a good first step...if Garza matches up on him it could be rough.
Prediction: Oral Roberts 88 Iowa 72

Iowa wins easy tomorrow. I will be putting some serious money on it, but not against the spread .
IF.....IF the Hawks struggle but still pull out a win, I will in fact have some hope restored for the season. Normally beating these early season small schools in a close game would invite some scorn....I'm of the mind that the way things looked against Depaul.....a win here is most important..don't care about the margin.
every time I hear Oral Roberts I think of Ray Thompson and what could have been.
