Iowa puts up 85 points a game which ranks 4th in the nation, and they shoot 47.4 percent from the floor and 39. percent from deep. On the defensive end, they are giving up 72.1 points a game and they are shooting 41.2 percent from the field and 34.9 percent from deep. The offense is led by Luca Garza with 23.8 points and 8.7 rebounds a game.

The Illinois offense is led by Dosunmu with 21 points a game and he dishes out 5.3 assists. As a team, the Illini are putting up 80.7 points a game and they are shooting 50 percent from the field and 38.2 percent from deep. On the defensive end, they are giving up 68.5 points a game and they are shooting 40.9 percent from the field and 33 percent from deep.

Iowa and Garza are one of my teams but they are going against what I consider to be one of the best teams in the country. Dosunmu can take over any game and will his team to win. Wieskamp returning for Iowa was a boost, but he needs to shoot better for them to have a chance. Illinois controlled the boards in their first meeting and that will be key today. I am looking for a fast-paced game and Iowa doesn't have the thoroughbreds for that kind of race.

Play on Illinois.
