I'll be going. Hoping the Hawks build on the momentum from last weekend and make it competitive.

Critical win for OSU. Iowa's arena is always an odd one to play in, the gym vibes are funky. Hoping for a win and good kick off to the Big Ten season.

avid 2.0 - This one's a thread creation nightmare. I had to view the Iowa roster website's source code to get the Hawkeyes' headshot urls, and then IDK WTF is up with Ohio State and their weird image shape. Sigh.

I saw Iowa had a winning record, and was like "oh wow, they must actually be halfway decent for once" but then I looked at who they played and some of those losses, and no. They don't appear to be any good this year.
It will probably be closer than it should though, because it "should" be a good old fashioned boat racing.

This Iowa team is better than a year ago. Better passing and outside hitting.

Unbalanced Big 14 schedule and covid scheduling adjustments 11/19/21 - Iowa at OSU 2/13/21 - Iowa at OSU ( COVID scheduling = playing same team twice in a weekend at same location) 2/12/21 - Iowa at OSU September 2020 - XStream arena opens11/29/19 - OSU at Iowa ( played at Carver Hawkeye) 10/16/19 - Iowa at OSU |

Iowa played well switching to the 6-2 this past weekend. It's a bit different than what they tried early in the season in that Nia Washington is not coming in for VanderWeide in the front. Mari Hinkle has been excellent so far. Iowa seems to be at their best when they are getting production from their middles and on the right with the OH's providing offense in spots. Huge step up in competition for the Hawks and Ohio State should win this handily. Coming off the loss to Pitt and with Nebraska on Saturday, will be Buckeyes be flat?

Good remarks. The Rightsides played really well vs UNI. Onabanjo hit over .600 and Schmidt over .400. Iowa is 27th in the country in kills and 2nd in digs in the Big 10. Some life on both sides of the ball. The 6-2 is getting a lot of kills.
