Is there a reason why so many think it has to be a country singer? Is it because of the Iowa thing? Is that a Gameday thing (I don’t watch it, so I’m not sure if it became their schtick or something.)

Good. **** them. I don’t give two ***** about them. If the players and Campbell (you know, the people that actually decide it) determine they want to wear all black just because they know the little piss babies in Iowa City will cry and piss themselves about it, more power to them. **** the Hawkeyes.

**** Iowa isn't just a catchy slogan. It's a daily way of life. :)

James Murray from Impractical Jokers could be a possibility, as he will be in WDM Friday night and Dubuque Saturday night with Ames in the middle?

Wouldn't be my first choice, but I wouldn't hate that. Mix it up a little.

Country singers are a dime a dozen and always seem to be playing close to redneck college towns the night before a game.

Who was it last week? I don’t even know where they were. I won’t be watching it anymore except for when they come here.

Can we somehow give somebody like Bill Murray an “Honorary Degree” of some kind so he has an ISU tie and comes to do the picks? That would be epic.

Would be interesting and a lot like the Eric Stonestreet pick before but the big difference is Modern Family was a hit show on a Disney-owned channel and Impractical Jokers isn't

Why do you give some Hawk fans so much power over you? You are so inconsistent. Why does this mentality not follow you to the idea that "if you don't like the arrogance of hawk fans, then shut them up by beating them." I imagine KF will have this mentality with his team. If you don't like it, then beat them.

The attitude you express on your posts is just fodder for Hawk fans to claim 'lil brother'. I am signing off for the week. Best of luck to both teams! I hope everyone can enjoy the week rather than let it fuel anger.
Obviously he has not read many of these message boards. Pants is consistent in taking any angle that will push someone's buttons. o_O

I would say there's roughly zero chance of either. Outside ISU circles nobody knows who either of them are.

I'd be prepared to be disappointed by some random celebrity.

Regardless, this is absolutely fantastic exposure. I'm guessing Matt Campbell is fine with the spotlight as it relates to recruiting.

Sorry, I feel like this is a BS excuse. There have been plenty of examples of celebrities showing that have some sort of recognizability by the fan base but no one else watching outside of the state would know.

“Tortious Interference” is a great sign but it will get shut down for entry into the pit.

It should be attempted at least. Of all the negative ESPN signs that could pass scrutiny I feel like this one would at least make it past the censors at the gate.

Wearing the all Black unis will be gas on an already fiery rivalry. I hope we can get through this week without people permanently hating each other.

Meh, it's no different than any other hate week. I'm in the camp it would be fun to wear the all blacks to piss Iowa off, but in reality wear something else because of the forecasted weather.
