You literally spend your whole existence putting down Iowa and yet you pick them to beat Iowa State every time you're posed the question.

I have never predicted Iowa to win in Hilton. The Super Bowl factor plays a big part into the game for you guys but not enough to overcome a legit home court advantage

If I had to put some percentages to it, I think it would be something like this

Iowa wins by more than 20: 1%
Iowa wins by 16-20: 3%
Iowa wins by 11-15: 5%
Iowa wins by 5-10: 9%
Iowa wins by 0-4: 16%
ISU wins by 0-4: 21%
ISU wins by 5-10: 12%
ISU wins by 11-15: 8%
ISU wins by 16-20: 5%
ISU wins by more than 20: 3%
Exactly how much time do you have on your hands? (He asks as he posts from work)
That took about 30 seconds. I wouldn't recommend you put your livelihood on the line for something that I pretty much randomly pulled out of my ass.

Might need more time- it only adds up to 83% ;)

How do you figure? If Iowa was remotely as bad as what CyTwins spends all day trolling and projecting them to be he wouldn't routinely pick Iowa to win. It's hedging the bet.

Did he pick Iowa to win last year in Ames or are we using the word routinely wrong?

It's ok that you don't understand the put down.

Lol it's Iowa, not Kansas. The officiating won't be an issue.

Surprisingly, Iowa (#10) has a better home-court advantage than Kansas (#30) per KenPom. With how often Carver Hawkeye Arena resembles the atmosphere of a funeral color me impressed.

Have you seen Iowa's FT shooting numbers at home this year?

They've shot a lot of free throws regardless of location. Their lowest amount of FT attempts (19) was actually at home against Wisconsin. They shot 30 on the road against MSU. They shot over 30 against Oregon and UConn at a neutral site.

For the love of all that is holy dont let little 5'7" Jordan Bohannon shoot three pointers. Literally the only thing he can do. Guard him obnoxiously close force him into the lane do whatever it takes. Take away the three point shot he is relegated to a middle schooler out there on both ends of the court.

78-74 Iowa. This is our first road game, and this is Iowa's biggest game of the year. I expect them to bring their A+ game
