Iowa men prepare to host No. 12 Illinois Sunday night

The Iowa Hawkeye men have played their way onto the NCAA bubble and have another chance at a resume building win Sunday night when they close the regular season at home against 12th ranked Illinois. With four wins in their ladst five games the Hawkeyes have moved to 10-9 in the Big Ten and 18-12 overall.

That’s Iowa coach Fran McCaffery. The Illini will finish second in the Big Ten and cause the Hawkeyes a number of concerns.

The Illini beat the Hawkeyes 95-85 two weeks and McCaffery says they need to do a better job of slowing down Illinois star guard Terrance Shannon.
