Why Iowa Will Win

It’s been a rough run over the last few games for the Hawkeyes, but the team is still able to score, the outside shooting is great, and the problems are almost all on the defensive side.

There are plenty of offensive rebounds on the rare times when the shooting is off, and the threes are dropping. If Indiana is off at all – the team is usually miserable from three and doesn’t do enough on the boards to matchup with the Hawkeyes – then Iowa has the firepower to put this away with a big run.

However …

Why Indiana Will Win

The Hoosiers didn’t have any problems scoring a few games ago in a shocking 81-69 road win over the Hawkeyes.

Iowa isn’t averse to playing defense, but it’s just not very good at it. Just about everyone is able to score at will with 80 being the magic mark for the league’s worst scoring D.

Iowa is 1-5 when allowing 80 points or more, and three of those losses came in the last four games.

Everyone is getting fat from three against this defense with Indiana, Illinois and Ohio State having no problems whatsoever coming up with points when needed.

Indiana doesn’t normally have the scoring pop, but it’s at home, so …

What’s Going To Happen

Being in Simon Skjodt has been a problem for the Hoosiers. In their last five games they’re 0-3 at home and 2-0 on the road, but Iowa isn’t having a whole lot of luck anywhere because of that D.

The relentless Hawkeye offense that had one of its worst shooting days of the season against IU the first time around won’t be that bad again. The defense will continue to give up way too many easy baskets and won’t force enough mistakes, but the offense will make up for it.

Why Iowa Will Win

At least lately, Indiana is bad at college basketball.

Shockingly, the appearance of Bob Knight didn’t inspire the Hoosiers in a blowout home loss to Purdue as part of a four-game losing streak and a run of five losses in the last seven games.

They’re not hitting a thing from three, they’re not moving the ball around well, they’re not taking the ball away, and they’re turning it over way too often. Throw in the lack of scoring punch, and there’s a problem against the No. 1 scoring attack in the Big Ten.

Iowa is fantastic at coming up with the extra pass, it’s hitting rom three, and it has the ability to on scoring runs that Indiana can’t.

Why Indiana Will Win

The Iowa defense isn’t anything special.

Yes, Indiana can’t shoot from the outside, and it’s having too many issues coming up with easy points, but the Hawkeyes are the second-worst in the Big Ten in field goal percentage allowed – they allow the easy points IU is having a hard time generating.

The Hoosiers might have a slew of issues at the moment, but they’re still rebounding well and the scoring issues appear to be temporary. Iowa is the team to get healthy against, at least offensively.

What’s Going To Happen

Iowa will hit from three, Indiana won’t.

The Hoosiers will have problems with scoring droughts thanks to a few too many turnovers. Iowa won’t be razor-sharp, but they’ll keep pain going for IU with a good finishing kick.
