This is only a small part of what the article has. Thought some might like to read this. From article:

ACC/BIG TEN CHALLENGE QUICK HITS
• The Hawkeyes' last game against Wichita State was Fran McCaffery's 500th career game as a head coach.
• Iowa's first six games have been decided by eight points or more.
• Roy Devyn Marble has scored in double figures in all six games this season.
• Aaron White leads the team in rebounding (6.5), steals (1.5) and free throws made (38) and attempted (51), and is second in scoring (12.5).
• The Hawkeyes have attempted 20 or more free throws in each of their first six games, including attempting 39 (made 31) against Wichita State.
• This marks the second time in three years under Fran McCaffery that the Hawkeye head coach has started two freshmen in the season opener (Basabe and McCabe in 2010).
• Iowa has won nine of its last 10 home games, dating back to Feb. 1.
• Iowa is 10-2 when scoring 80 points or more, the last three seasons. The Hawkeyes are 18-0 when holding opponents to fewer than 60 points, the last two years.
• Iowa's average starting lineup height is 6-foot-6. The Hawkeye starting lineup consists of two freshmen, one sophomore, and two juniors.
 




Hadn't heard this:

• Aaron White tied the Cancun Challenge record for most free throws made in the four tournament games with 28. White tied Ryan Thompson of Rider (2009).
• Iowa's Aaron White and Roy Devyn Marble were named to the Cancun Challenge All-Tournament Team.
 


Virginia Tech is a big, 3-pt shooting team.
Let's hope that the Hawkeyes have enough horses rotating to cover the
arc and get some easy buckets in transition.
Should be a very interesting game, indeed.

:cool:
