My gut is telling me Iowa by 7. I hope I'm wrong, but teams haven't shot well against us. We can go long stretches without making a bucket. Iowa likes to jump out on teams and I could see us getting down 10 or more early on.

The team that dictates their style wins this game. Hot take I know. You would hope our defense can dictate with the crowd that will be fired up. The fear I have is the studs on this team have never experienced Hilton at volume 11, and will that get them too fired up? Will we foul because of over aggressiveness? Without Enaruna, foul trouble will be a killer. This is Conditt's biggest challenge. He needs to be a leader, and not let his mouth get over his skis. Let the game come to him/through him and we win.

I'm really hoping IB and GK can both be offensive tonight. Make your damn bunnies!

Pay defense like we have been
Cause 12+ turnovers on them
Hit at least 6 threes
Limited issues with breaking their press
Hold Murray twins in check
Do NOT let JorBo go off

Those are the keys. We do well (not perfect) in those areas and we win.

Crowd will play a big part...hope the new players for us can feed off of us!

The crowd was pretty darn good at the women's game last nite. If they aren't off the chain tonight I'll be severely disappointed. I expect there will be plenty of Hawk douches there. A couple of CyHawk games ago. A stupid Iowa fan complained to the usher about the language being used around their kid. You don't bring a kid to these games and expect church behavior. I think it was the F*ck Iowa chants that bothered him. LOL.

Trying to analyze this JFK Zapruder film style from a grainy gif...

We've got Ejim and Niang instantly congratulating Kane. Looks like Thomas out beyond the arc and is that Hogue coming in from the left cheering? Classic lineup for a classic play, long NBA or European pro careers for all five.

On Woodbury's crew we've got Matt Gazelle AKA "push with Monte Morris" with the instant "you moron" look at Woodury. Aaron White with just a look of disbelief and disgust. Can't identify the two players on the right off the top of my head.

Fast & Furious 6 was available on deluxe blu-ray edition. Hope you were all able to purchase that for Christmas.

ISU Wrestling was getting ready for a duel with the Sooners.

Ref seems to enjoy Kane's creativity.
