Their capacity is less than 80% of JTS and it's the first time they haven't been an absolute joke for a very long time. Everyone wants to jump on the Kansas bandwagon down in Lawrence now. Our game will likely sell out or come very close to it so everything is going to be okay.
Things are odd this year. My daughter was going to use my tickets Sat, but she is sick so I have been trying to sell them. I have the price well below face value and there is no interest. Very strange for a great game. I’m super excited about our team this year. I hope the Jack is rocking Saturday.

Unpopular opinion.

We lose this one. All the silly mistakes that we do catch up to us. The mind numbing penalties, poor special teams, those small windows that Dekker's throws in are smaller we can't overcome because it's against a real team. Hope I'm wrong.

I don't see Baylor blowing us out. This either comes down to the last minute again or ISU wins handily. They have a good running game but we have a good running defense. I think we could finally see some big plays from our passing game (much like Baylor did against us in the first half last year).

Hunter won’t face a better defense than Iowa this year. If ISU screws up on special teams so be it

Sad to hear this. I do know alot of harvesting just got going and it does take away several. Perhaps the 11:00 time isn't ideal for many either?? Just trying to guess.

They finally sold last night. I’m glad they are going to be used. I really like the potential of this team and I hope others are excited too. I’m sure the 11am start doesn’t help and youth sports likely make it difficult for many families. I live in Indiana, so I can’t make it to every home game or I would be there. Unfortunately this week I am watching from home.

I hope watching it from home was at least a little less frustrating than being in the stands. It just seemed like so many unfortunate calls were going against us and we never fully 'got going'. Ugh

It was super frustrating seeing the refs play such a significant role in the game from the start. They were awful.
