IU opens as a 3-point dog at Iowa, o/u 151. Pomeroy concurs & gives the Hoosiers a 40% chance of victory.

Worth noting IU’s total game score avg is 137.9, an o/u of 151 is way over that. On the flip side Iowa has won 13 of last 14 at home and is a scoring machine.

Just a courtesy reminder...this thread is not the prediction thread.  But, I do agree that IU has a really decent chance of winning.

I just want to know how to find which players are likely to suit up.  Been on some Iowa fan sites and haven't seen anything about players being ready.  Just Iowa fans lamenting that Iowa needs work on shot selection, defense and rebounding.  And they are very, very worried about IU winning.

It was probably @Josh or @ALASKA HOOSIER that started posting scores in this thread to trick others in order to move up the prediction rankings. #cheatingdoesntwin unless you're the SEC, top teams in the ACC, several teams in the Big 12, PAC12, and a few in the Big 1.o

Just keep it close and give yourself a chance. All you can really ask. The defensive strategy will be interesting. Do you try to shut down Keegan or do you try and make him score 50 and **** down everyone else?

You play our excellent, high-effort defense with Race and Jordan as the primary defenders, and try to use X or Phin as help because they’re on Toussaint, who is a sub-par outside shooter.

And then you hope that Patrick McCaffery doesn’t score 20 against our threes. I expect to see lots of Miller Kopp—he’s used to B1G road games, and he’s our only three with the length to be effective against P McCaffery.

This is a game where TJD needs to move the ball inside-out, and Kopp, Stew and yes Rob need to shoot from the perimeter

Not sure this has anything to do with it but we have gone from +2.5 to +5.5 since it opened yesterday

Line movement seems to imply a notable absence for Indiana. This line shouldn't be as high as 5.5 with a full strength roster.

Well it definitely isn't a "Trayce is out" type of line. Because that'd likely move to +30.5. At least I hope not. Because this is a game that TJD could absolutely dominate with the lack of defense and pace played.

My guess is.... Woody said he wasn't going to be wearing a suit this game. Oddly enough... With human beings... That's enough for people to bet on Iowa.

I hope you are correct.

Nope not seeing anything :-)

[Hoosierfanyuh 2,199]

I saw that tweet a few days ago but then didnt see anything else that would be of concern on here, hsn, or even the community section of bleacher report. I think its nothin

[TheWatShot 13,939]

Probably has more to do with our road performances and Iowa only having one home loss.
