All I want for Christmas is to kick Iowa’s ass. Thoroughly and completely.
Monday Nov. 3 will probably be field trip day. It’s pretty fun. The kids are very enthusiastic.
Valpo on November 12

Might as well pencil Southern in for next year alongside Drake, Iowa, and UNI since we've played them every (normal) year since 2019.
I think a game against Indiana could be interesting! Hope it happens!
Glad we have Iowa on the schedule. If they can get ranked early at least we will have one or two Quad 1 games. The only other is the potential neutral site game with Indiana. Might not be a lot of Quad 1 games in the Big 12 this year.
