Iowa vs. Nebraska prediction
Will Kennedy, Des Moines Register: The Huskers and Hawkeyes split the season series, with each of them winning on their home floors. This game, though, clearly has a lot more at stake than just a regular season Big Ten victory. Both games were very tight, with Nebraska's win earlier this month in Lincoln going to overtime with a big Iowa comeback.
The oddsmakers think this game could go either way, and regardless of the result it would be historic. A win would earn Iowa its first trip to the Elite Eight since 1987. A victory for Nebraska would keep its unprecedented March Madness run alive. Either way, the winner of this one will be just three wins away from a national title.
Iowa 68, Nebraska 65
