Sun Feb 23 16:20:00 UTC 2025: ## Iowa Women’s Basketball Aims for Second Major Upset Against No. 3 UCLA

**Iowa City, IA** – The Iowa Hawkeyes women’s basketball team (18-8, 8-7 Big Ten) will look to pull off their second major upset of the season when they host the No. 3 ranked UCLA Bruins (25-1, 13-1) this Sunday at 1 p.m. CT in Carver-Hawkeye Arena. The game will be streamed live on Peacock.

Riding a wave of momentum after a dominant February, including a stunning victory over top-five opponent USC three weeks ago, the Hawkeyes are seeking to continue their impressive run. Their only setback this month was a narrow overtime loss to No. 8 Ohio State on Monday.

UCLA, meanwhile, is coming off consecutive home wins against Michigan State and Illinois, bouncing back from their own loss to USC. The return of key player Lauren Betts from a foot injury further strengthens the Bruins’ lineup.

This highly anticipated matchup will be broadcast exclusively on Peacock, with Zora Stephenson and Kim Adams providing commentary. Fans can expect a thrilling contest as Iowa seeks to replicate their earlier upset success against a powerhouse opponent.
