Hope we can win but I can see it being a tight game, maybe even OT and it could go either way.

I'm guessing the Penn State and Ohio State games might be in that Top 25 as well?
Penn State, yes. Ohio State wasn't even a contest, no way that is a top game of 2017 except from an Iowa perspective. ... So while I'd rate it No. 1, don't expect it to crack the list.

My thoughts exactly, Penn State for sure. It’s appalling how different a team they were week to week.

Yes, Ohio State was a blowout, but it was arguably the biggest surprise of the year.

That Iowa-OSU game was the most important game of the year for Alabama to win the national title. Hell, we didn't even win the Alabama or SEC title and without OSU getting decisively knocked out that day, Nick would be down a ring.
If it were 'most important games' or 'biggest upset games' it would undoubtedly be at the top of the list, I'm interpreting 'top' games to be the best games and a 55-24 blowout wouldn't qualify as such.
Hoping I'm wrong though, I never get tired of watching that game. Really hoping that plan of attack is more representative of BF's plan of attack and not the Wisconsin/Purdue games.

Iowa v Penn State was ranked at #5 and will be shown. The Iowa v. Ohio St game did not make the list

Bama-Georgia had to be #1, right? Probably Georgia-Oklahoma #2.
