Both teams are off to 3-0 starts to the season. Iowa defeated Oregon 77-69 and Connecticut beat Syracuse 83-76 in the first round of the 2K Classic at Madison Square Garden. The Hawkeyes are looking to be more consistent this season and they do have the talent to finish in then upper half of the Big Ten. They held the Ducks to 37.1 percent from the field, but they'll have to improve their own shooting as the Hawkeyes were only 19-of-54 from the field. Jordan Bohannon scored 16 points and Tyler Cook added nine points and 10 rebounds for Iowa. UConn has a new coach in Dan Hurley and he will try to rebuild off a 14-18 season with little depth in the frontcourt. The Huskies shot 49.1 percent versus Syracuse, but the question is can they repeat that against a good Hawkeyes defense. Iowa is a small favorite in this one, so take the Hawkeyes on the moneyline.
