Northern Iowa is coming into this game with a 2-5 record this season and they have not been playing well in their recent games. They are coming off of a loss in their last game which was at home and they have also lost 4 of their last 5 games. They have had a very tough schedule to start the season as they have played against some very good quality teams, but they have also failed to show up against the lesser teams they have faced. They have only played in 2 road games this season and lost both to North Texas and South Florida who have not been that dominant in their games. They are also coming off of a conference loss at home to Belmont in their last game which they lost by 20 points. They are going up against an Evansville team that is 6-1 this season and although they have not had as tough a schedule, they have still been on fire in their games. They have played 4 games away from home this season and have won 2 of those on the road while winning the other at a neutral location. They are coming off of a loss in their last game on the road as they lost to Missouri State by 12 but they will be hungry to bounce back in this conference game since they are back at home. They have also won all 3 of their home games this season with all of those wins coming by 8+ points and 2 of those wins coming against Division I schools as well. Evansville has been playing much better recently and they will also be hungry to bounce back at home from a conference loss to avoid going 0-2 in their conference already. Evansville will cover the spread in this game.
