IUWBB @ #23 Iowa - Sunday, 01.12.25 @ 3:00 ET on Peacock

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Let's move past last night's Northwestern game as quickly as possible.  If we play that poorly on Sunday, we'll be steamrolled by the Hawkeyes.  Iowa (12-3) (2-2) but 6-1 at home.  We've not been a good rebounding team and the Hawkeyes average almost 8 more rebounds/game than their opponent.  They average 77 ppg while holding their opponents to 65 ppg.  They have 3 players averaging double figures led by Lucy Olsen at 17.1 ppg.  As a team they shoot 48% / 33% / 73%.  They have a road game tonight at Illinois.  A. J. Guyton's daughter, Aaliyah, is a freshman on the team and has appeared in 10 games averaging 12 min/gm and 5.1 ppg shooting 56% FG (18-32) and 57% on 3s (12-21).   When she was in high school, I always got the impression A. J. was pretty miffed that she was never recruited by IU.   After this game we return home to host Illinois on the 16th and USC on the 19th.

An lU Ladies win would make for a great IU basketball weekend.

6.5 point dogs today. That's 2 points worse than the men's team last night. Hopefully we're at least competitive.

Okay, ladies, no pressure, but we need y'all to wipe last night's debacle from our minds.

I hope Moren has a side deal with Glade and she got rid of the stank cigar smell from the visiting locker room.

[FloridaHoosierGirl]

Garzon is feeling it today!

[OliviaPope40]

Glad we no longer have to deal with CC. 

[LamarCheeks]

She knocked the ball out of Garzon's hands as she went to take the ball out after a made basket. 

Seems to be a pretty obvious T. 

Don't know what all the fussing is about.

Was thinking the same thing. Most Iowa thing I've ever seen.

Lol phantom travels are the worst. 

[LamarCheeks]

CMM set up LaMendola perfectly for that corner 3 as time ran out. 

Clank. 

Oh well -- we're up 5 after 10 minutes. 

I'll take it. 

[mamasa]

Really don’t care for Jan Jensen

[LamarCheeks]

Syd missing some open 3s. 

Hope she starts knocking those down. 

[mamasa]

Nice transition

Defense is leading the charge so far tonight. Good to see. We aren’t going to be an elite scoring team this year with our personnel, so fundamental defense not giving up easy scores is critical. 

[FloridaHoosierGirl]

This is fun!  

[LockdownD]

Hoosiers taking it to Iowa.  Keep pushing.  Be aggressive.

[TheWatShot]

3 offensive fouls in 4 possessions. 

[FloridaHoosierGirl]

Not a good end to the half.
