Are u being sarcastic? I really liked it last time I was there, that was around 2011 or so I think. It's been a while.
Hickory park is more contentious on this site than most topics. It's fine

That was just a horrible show. Did absolutely nothing for ISU's image Pollard.... but it was ESPN's fault.... not yours.

They never made ISU look good the entire show. Didn't look at any of our new facilities at all. Then had a homer Hawk fan roll in on a Hawkeye decked out combine.... and then Corso made fun of ISU for not having seen the trophy in a long time and Ashton and the rest laughed at ISU right along with him.... and of course Corso picked Iowa.

It was like the show was in IC basically. Didn't do anything to promote ISU at all.... and ended the show with all of them laughing at ISU.

Our fans were WAY too nice to all these d-bags.
We will do our talking on the field.


I hope!

probably the best food outside of Paris. Certainly more traditional bbq than any filth in KC or Texas.

I heard every item at Hickory Park is better than it is anywhere that's known for it.

But that was some internet meme so not sure who to believe.

Do you think it was coincidence they didn't interview Campbell live on their stage like last time? I don't. I think Campbell and Pollard told them to F off. You destroyed our league and now you're trying to ruin college football as we know it..... F OFF!
You might be right.

I see Hickory Park was sold in 2019. Any change in the restaurant quality or pricing since then? Wish they had one down where I live!

I think it’s quite the same. I like it for what it is, always get a kick out of people here being hyper critical of it.

Yeah I've heard the 'negative' on CF before. Like I said I thought it was great.

Guess I'm not a food snob.

If this were like 2003 it would maybe matter but I'm not even sure who regularly watches Game Day or talks about it afterwards.

I think Campbell and Pollard both gave ESPN the cold shoulder today and treated them like the garbage they are.... and so ESPN responded in kind and didn't promote ISU at all..... and laughed at ISU while Corso made his pick.

Don't blame ESPN I guess.... but don't blame Campbell and Pollard for saying "F You" to ESPN either.
A little over the top, don't you think?

Classified, join the premium board to find out.

Or just watch the game today.

The word of Hall being dinged up is a bit concerning since there's no bye week before conference games start up.
