It is the rematch we have all been waiting for, Angel Reese vs. Caitlin Clark, but the stage is not quite as big this time. The Elite Eight is a big stage, but not as big as the National Championship which was the last time these two teams played where the Tigers came out on top 102-85 to win their first ever National Championship.

When the NCAA Tournament games were revealed and it was shown that these two teams were in the game region, this was a possible matchup that everyone circled. Superstars Reese and Clark get to go at it on the court one final time in college before they both move on to the WNBA after this season.

The stakes of this game are high as the winner moves on to the Final Four while the loser's season ends. The Tigers are playing their best basketball of the season right now, but this will be the toughest test they have faced in the tournament thus far.

LSU vs. Iowa NCAA Tournament Elite Eight odds

LSU comes into this game as the underdog to the 1-seeded Hawkeyes. This game probably was a tough one for oddsmakers as these two teams make a great matchup, there probably won't be any blowouts here. However, it will probably be a high-scoring game as shown by the over/under line.

LSU vs. Iowa NCAA Tournament Elite Eight prediction

This is a tough game to pick because it is a rematch game and anything can happen in an anticipated rematch such as this one. Both teams are firing on all cylinders right now. Iowa had a close game in the round fo 32 against West Virginia while LSU had a close game in the Sweet 16.

I almost don't want to pick this game because I think it is too close to call. The game will probably come down to who gets the last stop or who has the ball last and takes the last shot. If it is a three-pointer it will probably be Iowa, if it comes down to a shot in the paint, it will probably be LSU. It is just too close to call.
