ANALYSIS:
This website places Iowa in the top 25% of all NCAA college basketball teams this year. Ranked 58th overall (out of 362) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 19-15. Of the 14 schools in the Big Ten (average ranking 55.6), they're currently ranked as our #8 team in the conference.

Iowa is one of the very most competent offensive teams in the country. Ranked 20th in offensive efficiency, they'll rack up more than 118 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Iowa is an excellent shooting team, capable of converting from multiple locations on the court and ranking in the top-50 in three of our four primary field goal categories. They are most proficient from two-point range, making good on 44.3% of their mid-range jumpers (22nd in the nation), 63.3% of their near-proximity chances (41st), and 48.8% of their total shots from the field (16th) vs. AO. Iowa is also deadly accurate at the free throw line. Making 77.7% of their attempts from the stripe, they are ranked 18th nationally in free throw percentage. Moreover, they get ample opportunity to beat you from the line, as the ball-club falls in the top-50 in free throw attempt rate with a rating of 30.65 vs. AO.

Though they're not quite as efficient defensively as they are offensively, Iowa still does OK when the opposition has possession of the ball. The team ranks 146th nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 104 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Iowa has been fairly decent in preventing teams from draining shots from between the three-point stripe and the low post. They're ranked 74th in Division I in defensive mid-range field goal percentage, allowing AO to make good on only 36.5% of their attempts from that distance.

Iowa is one of the more consistent teams in Division I (presently ranked 27th in consistency), so forecasting the outcomes of their future contests tends to be easier than the norm. When playing on the road, Iowa performs somewhat worse than they normally do on their home court. The club is nationally ranked 322nd in our site's away-from-home metric.
SORTABLE SCHEDULE / RESULTS:
