After needing a second-half comeback to defeat Indiana (11-9), No. 12 Ohio State women's basketball (18-2) is expecting another challenging Big Ten matchup against No. 10 Iowa.
The Buckeyes entered as favorites against the Hoosiers, who were winless against conference opponents, but were trailing until the 3:34 mark in the third quarter.

Facing the Hawkeyes (17-2) on their home court, Ohio State coach Kevin McGuff acknowledges the Buckeyes need to improve their first-half performance. Iowa has picked up three wins over top-15 teams this season.
"The second half [against Indiana], we played really hard in the press, our half-court defense was significantly better, our pace and execution on offense was way better, and we made winning plays," McGuff said. "You’re not going to beat Iowa in Iowa City playing 20 minutes."
If Ohio State defeats Iowa, it will be the team's third win of the season against a top-10 opponent. On Jan. 11, the Buckeyes beat No. 8 Maryland 89-76. On Jan. 19, they beat TCU 71-69.
Here's how you can watch Ohio State vs Iowa:
The last time Ohio State and Iowa faced off, the Buckeyes eliminated the Hawkeyes from the 2025 Big Ten tournament with a 60-59 victory. During the 2025 regular season, Ohio State defeated Iowa 86-78.
The Buckeyes' 7-1 record in conference play has them tied for third in the Big Ten standings with Michigan. UCLA, which handed Ohio State its only conference loss, and Iowa are the only teams that remain undefeated against Big Ten opponents.
