    Tailgating location

    Daughter going to be at Iowa State this year and we are coming for ISU-Iowa weekend. Bought tix, but need reliable, close, fun place to tailgate that I can purchase. StubHub didn’t have much, not specific spots. It was kind of confusing. Any ideas? I’m glad to pay good money and go...

    Do you want Campbell gone?

    fortunately, Iowa has a worse offense , if that’s possible

    Matt Campbell quit on this team.

    Iowa was in prevent. Purdy would have done well against prevent too, although I thought Dekkers looked good.

    What to do with Coach Prohm Poll..

    Is there a school that will want him and pay him a significant chunk of what he gets now? I’m thinking similar to McDermott to Creighton and Alford to New Mexico. Saved lots of $ for us and Iowa.

    Tents = Coats/Heaters?

    It’s no one’s fault, but why is there always a controversy after everyone of our losses? If it’s not the officials, it’s the band, or the lack of tents. I think they are legit controversies, but just once I’d like to have a game without controversy. I’d like to get the true story about...

    Let’s talk about the refs

    I know they missed calls (probably some for both teams) and have missed calls before, but I get kind of tired of blaming the refs for every loss.

    Starting QB

    Agree. I think the QB took the blames for the teams troubles, but a QB is only as good as his team and vice versa. Give a guy a chance.

    Did Fred mess up not taking Peter Jok?

    Thomas is a very good player, but Jok may be all Big Ten.

    Bill Self apologizes

    Its stupid to apologize. People are so sensitive. If time is on the clock, or the player believes time to be on the clock, then its not a big deal. if you don't like it, play defense.

    We are pretty good--that's a problem

    We've only lost to good teams and not by much, and beaten some real good teams. So when you are "pretty good," you don't want to mess with things too much. Sometimes you are better off being not as good, so you are forced to change things up, address your weaknesses, play different guys etc...

    Cameron Lard eligibility review

    If he isn't coming, are we keeping him on the hook "just in case," until we get someone better? Not a bad way to do it, but I just don't want a good kid we have a legit shot at see on paper that the scholly's are all spoken for (I know coaches will always tell them there is room), and get...

    Dont fire CPR

    Wow, how the tables have turned on one game. I don't know whether a change is right, but the unconventional move would be to keep him. Having an experienced coach familiar with the other teams can be a huge asset, but its been 7 years and sometimes change is good. I like Paul Rhoads, but I...

    Big 4 Classic Tickets go on sale today

    I think its a neat event, but I can see why some players/fans want it at Hilton. Pollard must view it as a benefit in some way. We must make better money on it, or why would we do it? We certainly shouldn't play a home and home with UNI or Drake all the time.
