ISU to play at UIC

[tornado]

ISU has not released their schedule, but we can tell from today's release by UIC (University of Illinois-Chicago) that one of ISU's road games is at UIC.
UIC also plays a game AT SIU which is a return for last year's Bracketbuster.

Purdue also releases their non-conference schedule - only one true road game (at Alabama).

ISU's and SIU's non-conference schedules just got a little bit weaker yet...

another player at UIC is in trouble...and suspended...

They just dismissed Robert Eppinger...who has been dismissed by more schools than even Manual Cass.

Here's a Chicago article on UIC and they list the players in the roster...

Recall Spencer Stewart is suspended, but with the thin roster..look for him to get reinstated ASAP...
beyond Stewart, and returnees Kreps, Harris, and Buttell, then everyone else is new...
two new freshmen, two new jucos, and FIVE new walk ons!!!
Even more evidence that that estimate of RPI's for oponents will be way, way off in ISU's case..

Correct me if I'm wrong...but didn't we lose at UIC when we played there 2 years ago

In a word YES

UIC is usually reliable enough to schedule. Luck of the draw, sometimes.
