Holiday Bowl Wants Iowa Over Northwestern

[hawkeyebob62]

Doesn't sound like it will happen as Delaney is doing everything he can to squash it. Found this interesting.If did happen, it would really pizz Fitzgerald off and he'd even have more angst against Iowa.

NW SHOULD be pissed. They have earned the better bowl.

Agree. I know I'd be.

I wouldn't lose any sleep knowing we screwed over Patty F.

I get the Fitz angst, but I also remember how it has felt when we have been jumped by an OSU or Michigan for "better" bowls.

I am hoping for pinstripe. Let’s get the bowl game dry spell broken this year while we aren’t very good and keep good bowl games in play for the next few years when we are more experienced and (in theory) better

Partially agree..but no ones going to travel to that game.

But...it's cheap to stay in Jersey! (WTF came up with THAT "selling point"?!)

I can't imagine Iowa would break 10k fans in NYC. Y'know, fans, you can still go somewhere warm and watch the game on TV from a beach...it's probably more fun...

There will be approximately 3 Iowa fans that choose to pay out the ass to travel to NYC to freeze their ass off watching a mediocre Iowa team play some no name non-P5 team. I won't even watch that shit on TV.

I just booked my plane tickets and hotel rooms in San Diego. I can't wait!
