After a total beat-down of Minnesota on Wednesday, the Illini are in Iowa City to take on the Hawkeyes. Iowa is on a roll, having won four straight games and 9 of 10, after starting Big Ten play 0-3.

The Illini have been getting great production from their freshmen, but the Hawkeyes rely on veterans, and they can flat out score.
