Ah yes, the big game has arrived, the Iowa Hawkeyes take on the Iowa State Cyclones at Jack Trice Stadium in Ames.

I haven’t seen how the odds makers are calling this game, but I predict…. the Iowa Hawkeyes by 14, and I hope Iowa State played just like they did for the first three quarters of their game last week where they barely eked out a 20-19 win over the University of Northern Iowa – a AA school (or I guess they’re called the “championship division” now aren’t they?).  Consider this an open thread, let us know you you think will win, and feel free to talk about other games as well since I know not all of our readership is based in Iowa.  Kickoff is at 11:00a.
