Nebraska -5.5

The Hawkeyes are playing its worst basketball of the season, going 2-5 in their last 7 games. Nebby is coming off a blowout loss at UCLA for their senior day. Nebraska should be extra salty after losing to Iowa a couple weeks ago.

I think the betting line is a bit low, hawks lose 77-64 today.

Nebraska and their fans will all be extra salty. They are tired of losing to Iowa in basically everything except volleyball and softball.

Come out fast, take crowd out of it. Control the boards, control Fred junior and try to keep Sandfort under 20.

Hoping otherwise, but odds are definitely not on Iowa's side today IMO.

Ball security is upmost important today. Nebraska loves to poke, scrape and claw at the ball often fouling but rarely being called for it.

Debbie is also the king’s of moving screens. Watch for the play where they have a big with the ball at the three point line. They run a shooter handoff then the big immediately starts posting up two defenders 20 feet from the basket giving the shooter a clean look.

We were able to surprise the bugeaters last time, they will definitely game plan differently this time around. The question is how we are going to respond.

Could be another 15 minutes for this ILL/Maryland game. Maryland giving Illinois all they can handle. I wouldn't want to play them in the tournament.
