Where to watch it:
Network: Big Ten Network
Radio: 700 WLW
Time: 9 pm E.T.
Senior guard Jordan Bohannon is out for the season after hip surgery. Bohannon was the fourth leading scorer at 8.8 points per game and second in assists with 3.3 per game.
Iowa averages 80.0 points per game, but they give up 70.5 points per game, so that could bode well for Cincinnati, but can they slow down Iowa? Controlling center Luka Garza will be key as the big man is averaging 22.4 points, 9.9 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.3 blocks while shooting 55.1% from the floor, 42.3% from three and 66.1% from the line. Chris Vogt, Trevon Scott and Jay Sorolla will have their hands full, but their play on the defensive end will be key on Saturday.
