DES MOINES — Iowa State hasn’t had much of a problem playing at home. It’s those pesky road games the Cyclones can’t figure out.
Iowa State, winners of 10 straight over non-conference teams at Hilton Coliseum, have dropped 10 straight road games dating back to last season. Though the Cyclones are off to a 4-1 start, they won’t be taken seriously until they can show they can win away from home, coach Greg McDermott would like nothing better than to snap the streak Wednesday night at Northern Iowa (4-2).
The game represents a homecoming for McDermott, a former player and coach with the Panthers. More importantly, it kicks off a stretch of four games in 10 days — at Northern Iowa, home against Oregon State and Drake and at Iowa — that will show what the Cyclones are truly made of.
