The top game of Thursday in all of college basketball will be played in Ames, Iowa. The Hawkeyes travel to take on the undefeated and fourth-ranked Cyclones.
After a tough showing in East Lansing, the Hawkeyes bounced back in a big way in their last game against Maryland, winning by 19 points.
The Cyclones are one of the biggest rivals of the Hawkeyes, and this task is not going to be an easy one for Iowa. A victory could very well happen, but some things need to occur for it to happen. Here are the keys to victory for the Cy-Hawk game.
