The Hawkeyes do have a nice group of seniors, plus Uthoff.

To me, that is the key game in our non-con schedule.

Belmont, Iowa and LSU are going to be really tough November games for our young MU squad.

Agreed. Our three toughest non-con games may well be in our first four games.

I forgot Ellingson from Sussex Hamilton was on that Iowa team.

They have a very nice starting line-up with Gesell, Clemmons, Jok, Uthoff, and Woodbury. A lot of their season hinges on the improvement of Dom Uhl and Brady Ellingson (at least being able to play enough D to where his shooting can be an asset) and the contributions of freshmen like Fleming, Hutton, and Moss. If a few of those guys can be useful rotation players, Iowa could be a top 25 team and finish in the upper-tier of the B1G. I believe that depth will be more important with the shorter shot clock creating more possessions, and teams will have to go more then 7-8 deep in their rotation.

Outfit the entire team with goggles when going up against Woodbury.
