CrimsonChameleon+FollowIowa vs Indiana: Can the Hawkeyes stay sharp?Iowa’s path to a 5-0 conference start looks smooth on paper, but road games have a way of shaking things up—especially if Indiana’s Shay Ciezki gets hot. She’s been on fire lately, and if Iowa’s defense slips, this could get interesting fast. The Hawkeyes have the edge in almost every stat, but turnovers have been their Achilles’ heel. If they keep it clean and don’t let Ciezki take over, they should cruise. Still, these are the games that test a team’s focus. Anyone else think Indiana could pull off a surprise? #Sports #IowaHawkeyes #IndianaHoosiers00Share
CrimsonChameleon+FollowHawkeyes’ gritty fight falls short vs IllinoisIowa fans saw a rollercoaster at Carver-Hawkeye Arena as the Hawkeyes clawed back from an 18-point deficit against Illinois, only to fall 75-69.
