Iowa Hawkeyes Play Thursday in the Sweet 16
After taking down #1 seed Florida, the Iowa Hawkeyes have a few days to rest up for a conference rival in the Sweet 16. Iowa will battle Nebraska in the Sweet 16, Thursday night March 26th, according to Hawk Central. The game will be played at Toyota Center in Houston, Texas. Conference rival. Border rival. This could be a real battle.
Iowa and Nebraska have already played twice this season. Hawk Central reports that Iowa topped the Cornhuskers 57-52 in Iowa City. Nebraska would win the rematch in Lincoln, 84-75 in overtime. The winner moves on to the Elite Eight!
Iowa versus Nebraska will tip at 6:30 p.m. Iowa time Thursday, and will be televised on TBS.
Iowa State Cyclones Will Play Late on Friday
Iowa State continues to impress during the NCAA Tournament. Despite losing All-American Joshua Jefferson to an ankle injury, the Des Moines Register reports that the Cyclones rallied from a first half defecit to top Kentucky 82-63. Now they move on to the Sweet 16 to play Tennessee. Both teams are great on defense, so expect a close battle to the very end.
The real question is will Joshua Jefferson be able to play? Up to this point, Iowa State really hasn't needed him. Senior guard Tamin Lipsey is the heart and soul of this Cyclone squad looking to advance to the Elite Eight!
