Indiana

I'm am scared of how Iowa matches up with Indiana. They have a good inside presence with Zeller and can really shoot the three ball well. I'm not sure Iowa has the interior defense to stop Zeller and if Iowa goes zone I feel they'll shoot the hawks out of the gym. However, Michigan is still with them. Basically, the big ten is damn good.
 
Indiana, OSU and MSU look to be matchup problems in the frontcourt for Iowa with all their size. Those are the games that scare me the most; mainly because all those teams have multiple bigs that are not just stiffs.

I feel the only way to beat Indiana is by running and attacking them in the middle, such as Michigan is now. I just don't think Iowa is an athletic enough team to do that.
 
If you have an extremely athletic team, you can cause problems. Starting next year, athleticism will not be a problem for the Hoosiers.

IMO, teams like Mich, Kentucky and OSU have given them problems by getting in their grill. They can't blow by them; they have lights out deep shooting that helps them out.
 
Iowa is not in the class of IU, MSU, OSU, yet. They are a middle of the pack BIG team right now and that is a good thing. Indiana is a damn good team and they are back. Granted, we'll see what they do when they actually have to play a road game.
 
According to his Aunt, whom I work with, the youngest Zeller that plays at IU now is the best of the bunch and his brothers who played at ND and UNC weren't too shabby. He got some great driveway beatings to prepare him for play in the B1G. He is however prone to foul trouble, I believe, which would sure benefit us if that happened when we play them.
