Tim Miles has his squad off to a nice start this season and Nebraska had two huge wins in the last week over Clemson and Illinois. The Cornhuskers are ranked in the AP poll this week for the first time since 2014, which also happens to be the last time that Nebraska made the NCAA tournament.

Coach Miles looks to have something brewing in Lincoln.

Iowa lost a close match up with the talented Wisconsin Badgers on Friday but that should not discourage you on how good this team is. The Hawkeyes got a big win over the Pittsburgh Panthers  and are going to be a contender come March.

Iowa has four players averaging double digits in points and are led by Junior Forward Tyler Cook who is averaging15.4 points per game.
