Third Place Earns Zilch Primetime Game Starts

With the release of the Iowa Hawkeye men's basketball TV schedule, it's clear to me that no matter how great the season ended last year with its NCAA tournament participation, it wasn't enough. Third place in the Big Ten earned zilch for starting games. Not only does the team not have a Saturday game at Carver-Hawkeye Arena, they also do not play in the early slot. Their home games during the week start at 8 PM. There's little likelihood that I will attend any home games during the week with Alex because getting home at 10:30ish on a school night isn't the best choice I can make for him. It's true that he has become a night owl - he was awake at 11 PM last night. Read all of the details here.
