It won't matter.
EIU's only alleged rivals are Ohio State and Michigan who they don't even play. I hardly understand how those schools qualify as rivals for Iowa considering Iowa just rolls over and dies when they play them. I would say a team like Western Michigan would make more sense as a rivalry for Iowa. Whoops... Forgot they rolled over and played dead for them too. I guess
ISU would be their rival then. Historically Iowa has done well against
ISU but for the last decade they have pretty much rolled over and died for us as well. I am struggling to find a rival for the Hacks here... Indiana.... nope. Northestern.... probably not. Help anyone...
