UNI takes on D-1 foe

A survey of Iowa farmers finds conservation The University of Northern Iowa goes from a division two team in their season opener to division one Boise State, a team that played in a bowl game last year. U-N-I coach Mike Dunbar says the game helps the University’s athletic budget, but won’t do much to help the team’s chances of making the division one-double-A playoffs. Dunbar says they learned that last year when they beat a division one team, but suffered when they lost to a one-double-A opponent.Dunbar says the difference in divisions is measured in speed, not size.Dunbar says regardless of who they play, the key for his team is to improve week-to-week.U-N-I beat Morningside at home in their opener. They go on the road to meet Boise State in Boise, Idaho Saturday.
