The #20/22 Iowa Hawkeyes (4-0) play host to the Alabama State Hornets (2-2) in a rematch of last year’s 92-58 beatdown.
Bama State already has two more wins than they did in last year’s non-conference schedule, as they beat to two Division III schools, LaGrange and Birmingham Southern in their only two home games before conference season kicks in. Their blowout losses were at Iowa State and South Dakota State.
The Hornets return 69.7% of their minutes from last year’s squad which ranked 339th according to KenPom ($). They finished 8-22 and 8-10 in conference.
