IU-Iowa tipoff moved to 6 p.m.

"My primary goal in all this is to get as many people in Assembly Hall as possible," said Athletics Director Fred Glass. "What this does for us, is the people in and around Assembly Hall, primarily students and faculty and staff, can watch pretty much the entire Colts game, and still get to our game. So hopefully that's significant. We appreciate the cooperation of the Big Ten Conference, the Big Ten Network and the University of Iowa."
