Nope true road game in Northern Iowa. Very risky early season road game imo

Lots of crazy upsets already

Northern Iowa lost to Colorado State this year

so this is a good sign for the MWC

Pre-Season rankings are a joke. But Paige is out also.

Ironically the Heels scheduled the game so Marcus Paige could get to play in Iowa his senior year. Then they play, he's hurt so doesn't play at all and they lose. Lol

"Risky" is what you call it if your team has an actual chance of not being one of the 68 teams in March. Being a fan of Michigan State and Tom Izzo, I learned long ago to call these early season losses "character building" or "early tests" and even "a chance to find additional areas to improve upon."

They'll be fine, and better off for it in the long run.
