Since it's the off season I thought this might be interesting. Looking back obviously the Seneca was in game stands out but there's gotta be a few others in there I'm forgetting like that game at West Point.
Favorite Non-Con Football of All Time Game (non-ToE)

The '01 Iowa game played around Thanksgiving was pretty special. 9/11 kind of made you think about life a little bit more.
I was probably at this game, but I have no recollection of it whatsoever because I was too young. Seems like it had to be a fun one
Well I was super hyped for that Utah game back in 2010 but then we got completely destroyed lol. The Uconn games with steele jantz.
Despite the result, 2002 FSU was so much fun to watch.
Is this the one where the coach was stomping on our logo? I was thinking Toledo but can’t remember exactly.
Obligatory "HE WAS IN"...
That was the one that immediately came to mind for me. Big time game, and we performed very well (at a time that we were most decidedly not used to either of those things).
I will go with the UCONN game, the only non-con road game I have been to that ISU has won. Hard to get too excited about all the close wins over UNI or Akron.
Watching TD run for 378 yards and set the record at the time.
Whoops forgot it was supposed to be non con.

Yes. Their coach and players were stomping on our logo. I was in the marching band for this game and saw it all first hand. Their coach went sprinting after the officials into the tunnel of Jacobsen. He then came running back out to tell his players not to leave the field. He accidentally tripped over a band members foot and biffed it on the way out and the whole band laughed at him. It was something to see.
Classy bunch that team was. Refused to leave the field, coach throws a temper tantrum on the field, we have fireworks going off behind the SEZ, and they finally concede after a ~20 minute standoff by leaving the field while yelling at fans and flipping off the crowd.
Idk but he has to be somehow related to Fran McCaffery.
How about the 10-6 road victory over Florida State in 1975? (Florida State sucked back then, but still.)
Most disappointing? The 1943 loss to Iowa Pre-Flight still stings. Stings bad.

For non-conference games, Utah was like the opposite of ISU-FSU (deflating for first 20 minutes or so, then picked up steam).
