Yeah I like him as a musician but wow he was dull. At least act like you want to be there.

For anyone bashing the Iowa picks....it’s a pick em game so I don’t see the hate. Be thankful we had this opportunity and don’t be petty and pissed over some picking Iowa.

No ****. The game will likely come down to the trenches and that's usually an advantage for Iowa and is this year.

Couple things. Crowd at the end was great. Crowd at beginning was average. Lots of late arrivals. Traffic sucked and was a huge factor in that

And the people bashing Church for no charisma, that’s who he is. Anyone who follows him knew he wasn’t coming in rah-rahing it up.

The Bear took the Cyclones. That's the one I was most curious about with the celebrity picks. We already knew Desmond liked the Cyclones and Corso was just being Corso.

Herbie's comment at the end about CMC staying in Ames came across as "I had to say this quick sometime today so let's get it over with".

Damn knew I should have gone early to get my food order.

I doubt it will be nearly as busy as in Minneapolis (we had like 300+ for the Iowa game) but I wouldn’t be shocked if it’s 2-3 times what the last game crowd was. Really hoping the open up the other half of the upstairs if that’s the case.

Killing time until kickoff...

Who does everyone think has a big game today? I think it's Tarique Milton. I think we test Iowa's thin secondary early and often.

Hoping to see purdy roll out some and really stretch the field

I think it needs to be Purdy for us to have a shot. Next might just be Manning. If Manning doesn't open it up and call a good game we will struggle to score again and have to rely completely on our defense posting a near shutout.

My prediction is that if what is happening west of here keeps stays together at the same pace it will hit right about game time.
