In their last outing against the Wisconsin Badgers, the Hawkeyes secured a commanding victory with 87 points to the Badgers' 65. Their offense was on fire, shooting an impressive 50 percent from the field and 41 percent from beyond the arc. They also dominated inside with 46 points in paint and outrebounded their opponents with a total of 40 rebounds.


Prior to that, they faced off against Iowa State Cyclones where they emerged victorious again with a score of 67-58. Despite shooting slightly lower at around 35 percent from both field goals and three-point range, they made up for it at the free-throw line with an exceptional rate of approximately 93 percent.


The most dominant display came when they hosted Bowling Green Falcons; here, Iowa showcased their offensive prowess by putting up nearly double digits on their opponents – finishing with a staggering scoreline of 99-65. They shot an extraordinary two-point percentage of approximately 78 percent and assisted on nearly half of those made baskets.


These statistics show that while Iowa has had some fluctuations in shooting percentages across different games, they've maintained strong rebounding numbers and have consistently found ways to win through various facets of their game – whether it be inside scoring or making crucial free throws.


The upcoming match is set to take place at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines – a venue known for its vibrant atmosphere which could provide additional energy for the home team. Fans can expect Iowa's offense to continue its potency while looking for them to exploit any rebounding advantages as seen in past performances.
