The Iowa Hawkeyes (6-1) take on the #15 Duke Blue Devils (8-2, 1-0) in Madison Square Garden as part of the Jimmy V Classic. #17 Illinois takes on #2 Texas so the Hawks are, admittedly, the odd man out. But that doesn’t mean there’s not a huge opportunity for the guys in black & gold to get a big win - it would be Fran McCaffery’s 500th - in an event with cancer research at the center of it.
