The Iowa Hawkeye men take a 1-3 Big Ten record into Friday night’s game at home against a vastly improved Nebraska team. The Huskers are 13-3 overall and coming off Tuesday night’s 88-72 win over top ranked Purdue.

That’s Iowa coach Fran McCaffery who says Husker coach Fred Hoiberg has boosted the talent level on his roster and balance has been a key,

Senior guard Keisei Tominaga leads the Huskers at 14 and-a-half points per game and his ability to move without the ball makes him tough to guard.

The Hawkeyes have been off since Saturday’s win over Rutgers.
