The Iowa Hawkeyes (2-1) return to the hardwood after their victory over Oral Roberts on Friday. They’ll face the North Florida Ospreys (4-1) in a battle of birds.
Sure, UNF’s record is inflated by a couple non-Division I wins but they also eked out a couple close wins at home against Georgia Southern and Southern Miss. In their only game against Power 5 competition, their 8-7 lead was quickly turned into a 30-10 deficit and eventual 15-point loss to Florida.
Their head ball coach remains Matthew Driscoll, a man some Hawkeye fans may remember as the guy who called out the 2014-15 varietal (except Gabe Olaseni) in the Ospreys’ last visit to Iowa City.
