Iowa State released the entirety of its men’s basketball non-conference schedule Tuesday.
The season opens in Sioux Falls, S.D. against Colorado on Nov.13, and the home-opener comes three days later against Chicago State.
Other notable games include the Emerald Coast Classic in Niceville, Fla., the day following Thanksgiving. It opens Friday, Nov. 27 against Virginia Tech and then is followed the next day with a contest against Illinois or UAB. The Blazers upset the Cyclones in the NCAA tournament first round last season.
The Cy-Hawk series resumes Dec. 11 when Iowa visits Hilton Coliseum looking to break a two-game losing streak to the Cyclones.
