Minnesota was mostly respectable for years. Then coach Pitino left. Now, they are horrible. They got beat by 35 points at Rutgers a few days ago and they are about to get beat by 35 points, at home, tonight, and go to 1-11 in the conference. Iowa plays at Minnesota next Sunday.

For some reason there is no game thread. Is it too much to ask that Iowa get a big lead and keep it? I want an easy second half. This is by far the easiest game Iowa will have the rest of the season. Iowa is fortunate Nebraska is missing threes and bunnies.

If Petras is the obvious top guy, he may be Iowa's QB for the next three seasons. That would put Deuce Hogan in the position of red-shirting one season and then sitting on the bench for another two seasons before he can even get on the field. That is a long time to wait. Is he going to want...

The weather is expected to be pretty nasty Friday afternoon and evening. The area should get 2-4 inches of snow during the afternoon followed by a mix of sleet and freezing rain in the evening. How much does this kind of weather typically affect the attendance for an important game like this?

BTN just tweeted they are re-airing the Holiday Bowl (60 minutes) Saturday morning at 9:30am Iowa time. UPDATE: It's 10:30 EST, 9:30 CST.

It had been expected to be sunny for most of the day in Ames, but a very persistent cluster of thunderstorms is approaching central Iowa as we approach game time. There appears to be a decent amount of lightning, so that could be a problem if they don't crap out soon.

I know we want everything to be accurate, but I wish there was a better way to do it than have the refs go to the monitor for 1-3 minutes multiple times during the last minute of games.

Iowa has fallen behind a combined 98 - 0 during their last four bowl games. Iowa has almost always been less athletic than bowl opponents, but they used to play tough and win some of them. What has changed? Why is Iowa now repeatedly getting slaughtered from the opening whistle?

On ESPN's Sports Reporters this morning Mike Lupica said something like, "Don't you think the committee is praying for Michigan St. to win so they won't have to deal with Iowa?" WTF

Plenty of people have mentioned it before, but the last couple minutes of many college basketball games has become intolerable. Timeout, timeout, foul, foul, foul, timeout, refs go to the monitor, foul, foul, timeout, refs go to the monitor, timeout, timeout. It has always been somewhat...

Zach had a solid first day, shooting even par and ended in 22nd place. This morning he has had a great front nine with a birdie and eagle. He's now in 2nd place behind RED F'N HOT McIlroy. McIlroy just eagled to take a 7 shot lead over Zach.
