Iowa and Virginia square off in second round of NCAA Tournament

BetMGM lists Iowa as a 13.5-point favorite for the Monday matchup between Virginia Cavaliers and Iowa Hawkeyes in Iowa City.
Following their opening wins, both teams drew a Monday second-round meeting, with Iowa advancing after beating 15-seed FDU on Saturday and Virginia winning over Georgia and Arizona State.
Iowa shoots 48.6% and averages 6.7 made 3-pointers, with Ava Heiden, Iowa forward, averaging 17.8 points and 7.3 rebounds, while Virginia's Kymora Johnson and Tabitha Amanze lead offensively.
Three-Point shooting and zone defense could decide the game, with Iowa averaging 6.7 made threes and Virginia allowing 6.4, while Virginia's 3-2 record in close games adds uncertainty.
ESPN will carry second-round action, with a tip-off at 2 p.m. on March 23, 2026, as Iowa hosts Virginia in Iowa City.
