NO doubt this will be the most talked about game of the night. This games is on ESPN.. Iowa who has been pitiful on the road this year gets a chance to redeem themselves from an embarrassing home loss to indiana, a double digit loss, in which they were never really in the game, for all intent and purposes it was over at halftime. Both sqads will more than likely make post season play(NCAA) so it's not a win or no tournement type of game. Iowa has played ONE game in the last 10 days and i don't think they spent the six days off between there last game on 1/26 a loss to purdue preparing for penn state. Alford played a lot of subs in their game against penn state, giving them some experienc and making sure his troops will be fresh for tonights game. My take is that he will press Indiana the entire game if necessary, and that no shot will go uncontested if possible. Everyone knows alfords' ties to indiana, and that job was his if he wanted it, and i think he would love nothing more to go back there and prove that he is a much better coach than the past 2 weeks have shown. I think you will see the best all around effort out of his entire Iowa squad tonight. I dont' think you will see Iowa blow out Indiana but this games going to be alot closer than most people think, Alford knows he can turn his season around with a win at Indidana tonight. I'll take the +7.5 and hope that i don't make an ass out of myself with this write-up.
