Some people have never had their video game console restart mid-game on them because it was bumped and it shows.

Iowa State down 9 to a bunch of kids from Missouri, and these fans haven't felt so betrayed since Fox called Arizona for Biden.

This is the quietest I've ever heard Hilton during an Iowa game. This includes the Uthoff game. Insane what Iowa has been able to do against this Cyclone team in the first half.

Penn State thought they'd get a leg up by firing their head coach in the middle of season. Turns out coaches don't want to work for a program that fires their coaches mid-season.

My first hot take on this Iowa Mens Basketball squad under Ben:
Isaia Howard should come off the bench.

If somehow the stars aligned and Iowa made the CFP, they would be a nightmare matchup for a lot of teams.

You can't forget to appreciate the stars right now, as well. The clear skies are allowing them to absolutely pop right now. What a night.

I've never seen the Aurora Borealis this intense from the southern part of the state. The entire sky is red and the Lights are completely visible with the naked eye here in SE Minnesota. Green vertical lights even in the southwest sky. Thanks for the fireworks, SS Edmund Fitzgerald.

I think Iowa is the better team than USC right now, but the west coast, man. Not kind. Hopefully Sat is a good one.

Doesn't matter how many times I read that, it's painful. Iowa Football has been "this close" too many times this year. Putting in perspective , though, it went the right way vs Penn State, and could have easily flipped the other way too.
