I would like to see something like 100-45.
That could happen, maybe even easily.

I do have some sympathy for these low-major teams that need to travel and get their teeth kicked in to support the rest of their AD's, and sometimes they even get a big win (I think Jackson State won at Missouri last season). But this year they just aren't good.

J-State has no wins but has been closer lately.

I'd guess ISU is a little flat and they hang around a bit.

It's also been 4 days since the last game so I'll guess Lipsey plays.

1. Win.
2. No injuries.

Not sure that playing a horrible opponent at home right before we head into our first true road game against a bitter rival is the best route to take, but the schedule is what it is.

Hopefully, we come out of this game injury free and rest those guys who might be dinged up.

After Maui and Marquette it's probably good to get a break and hopefully there's no weirdness.

What would you prefer?

Not sure to be honest, but Iowa will be playing their toughest opponent of the year (their Super Bowl) at home right after losing by only 2 at Michigan, and we will be playing our first true road game after playing in a laugher at home.

Iowa will come out with their hair on fire. We are definitely the better team, but I hope we match their intensity.

The good news is that TJ specializes in intensity.

I'd say ISU is plenty battle tested from playing in a weird gym in Maui.

I'm picking Iowa to win that one based on recent history though. It's their big moment.

2-1 in Maui, and getting Marquette are bigger deals than some weird December night in Carver so the game's just an annoyance over anything.

Yeah, we are definitely battle tested, but we've had the crowd advantage in every game we've played. It's different when everyone in the building is screaming for you to lose (just ask the other teams in our conference about the Big 12 tournament crowd). It's gonna be interesting to see how we handle it.

Imo playing at Carver on the one of maybe two games they sell out all season is good for ISU before heading into conference season but they shouldn't schedule some away game to prep for Cyhawk.
