If we defend like we did vs MSU, and if the zebras don't screw us (which they probably will), IMO it will be close. Need to watch Trice, Reuvers, and Potter.
1) If refs ticky-tack us, 73-70 Wisky.
2) If refs don't, 80-75 Hawks.

BTW. Go Hawks!
 
How in gods acre does Wisconsin's two big men in Reuvers and Potter play 22 and 18 minutes against Michigan and not corral at least 1 single rebound between them? That's just unbelievable!

If Wisconsin wins, the score won't be that high most likely.......

They're capable. They scored 85 against Sparty at Breslin and 80 against Indy at Kohl.
Just think they don't have multiple scorers capable in keeping up with Iowa. There chance to win is the same one employed by Ryan, muddy the game, make it physical and keep the score down.

Good news is that they’ve already lost 3 home games this year due to pretty obvious reasons. Has anyone heard what the current winning % is for home teams across all of CBB compared to normal years?
 
Wisconsin’s offense looked putrid against Michigan. They won’t be able to hang with the hawks with Iowa even having a average night of shooting.

Iowa 83
Wisky 72

Definitely want to break out the heavy-duty cups for this one.

Huge game for both teams. Hawks can open up some distance from Wisky with a win. Kohl Fieldhouse is another really tough place to win, and they have a really good team that has been in a tailspin. Luka needs to be back on his game, and I would feel a lot better if CJ is back healthy. I hope the coaches paid attention to the Wisky-UM game. I didn't know about the kid Davis, who might be their best offensive player and is coming off the bench. GO HAWKS!

Bruiser of a game. Could be won or lost at the free throw line. Iowa 74, Wisco 72. The badgers have a string of losses to ranked teams this season. Hope it stays that way.
OMG.. I hope it isn't won at the free throw line. We suck as of late. And the refs don't call fouls on tight man to man that Wisc. plays. If Garza doesn't have to sit because of fouls we should win!!! 60 - 57

I have no idea what the final score/winner will be, but I do believe it is a pivotal game for Iowa down the stretch. Not only for league standings but in terms of confidence. Very important game IMO. Iowa plays defense they will win, if not, probably a loss.

Also. little concerned about coming off a game everyone shoots lights out from the three as things always seem to even out.
 
The Badgers should be a lot better than they are with 5 Senior starters. If we are playing reasonable defense and shooting well, we should prevail.

Badgers don't start five seniors anymore...
 
90% of the time you know what you’re getting from the Iowa offense and Wisconsin defense. Those units show up just about every night. The other end is the question mark for both teams. I think this one comes down to how well Wisconsin shoots from the perimeter. They are 10-1 when shooting >33% from 3 and 5-6 when shooting <33% from 3

Great content and thanks for sharing, especially how predictive shooting >33% is to winning , 10-1, although you still win ~50% of the time when shooting <33%. If you shoot over 33% you almost always win , when shooting under, its only 50/50.

im curious what the national average in this might be and if it’s not generally always true?

as a note, IOWA gives up 3Pt FG in BIG at a 35% rate, so unless Iowa decides to make it tougher on WI shooters by,moor example playing M2M, then it looks like whisky wins this by virtue of the 3Pt FG% predictive value.
