I think if Iowa lost their first game most Hawk fans wouldn't say "oh well, first game jitters - they'll bounce back and win 10 games and play on Jan. 1" Hell No! They would be ****** that they missed out on the national title game yet another year.
I think the choice was limited to
ISU or Minnesota. I'd have to disagree with them though, because the last time they lost at home to
ISU, they didn't lose to anyone else. So maybe they should hope to lose to
ISU
