The Iowa men’s basketball team will carry a high degree of success into the 2015-2016 season, but in a loaded Big Ten this season, the Hawkeyes will have their fair share of tests.

The Big Ten released the entirety of the conference’s basketball schedule on Thursday afternoon’s BTN Live.

Iowa opens it’s campaign with a home date with Michigan State December 29th, which will be on BTN.

The Hawkeyes follow with a contest at Purdue January 2nd, home against Nebraska on January 5th, and then have a rematch with the Spartans in East Lansing on January 14th.

Arguably the toughest part of the conference season will come on in Iowa’s last four games.

A home date with Wisconsin on February 24th and a trip to Ohio State on February 27th or 28th, are followed with a home matchup with traditional Big Ten power Indiana on March 1st, and a trip to Ann Arbor on March 5th for a duel with Michigan closes out the Big Ten season.
