Nebraska vs. Iowa: Sweet 16 Showdown With No Clear Favorite
Experts are split on the Sweet 16 showdown between Nebraska (4 seed) and Iowa (9 seed) in Houston, the third meeting this season after Nebraska won in Lincoln in OT and Iowa won at home. Iowa arrives off a 73-72 upset of Florida; Nebraska beat Troy and Vanderbilt. Media outlets from Des Moines Register to Yahoo Sports show mixed predictions, with Nebraska highlighted for its elite pick-and-roll defense but no consensus on a winner. The winner advances to the Elite Eight to face Houston or Illinois in the South Region.
