I wanted to take a look at our remaining matchups.
Iowa will have three of the last four dual meets at home inside sold out legendary Carver-Hawkeye Arena. The Hawks will host #4 Nebraska on Friday followed by on the road at #5 Minnesota on the 14th. Iowa returns home on the 16th with Northwestern and closes out the regular season by hosting #3 Oklahoma State on February 23.
When you have the #3, #4, and #5 ranked teams on your remaining schedule you can expect every match to have a tough opponent.
There will be a lot of great individual matchups in the next four dual meets. As I am always saying every single match is important for seeds at Big Tens and Nationals.
This is the type of competition that you expect for Iowa and I am looking forward to it.
Let’s get ‘em in the middle.
