Northwestern vs. Iowa game thread

It's 11 a.m. in Middle America, and that means it's football time!

Northwestern vs. Iowa is actually kinda sorta important! First off, its Iowa, who is hypothetically slightly more important of an opponent than some other schools, even if nobody's quite sure how to feel on that front. Secondly, if Northwestern loses, they probably won't end up going to a bowl game. Just sayin'. Thirdly, DAMMIT, I DON'T WANT TO START 0-4 IN CONFERENCE, IS TAHT SO MUCH TO ASK.

So, yes, we'll be watching, and hopefully you are too despite being filled with gloom and despair and self-loathing and all those fun adjectives. If you are, you're either at Kinnick Stadium which means you bought tickets back when you were excited or you're right at home. If the latter is true, watch with us! We'll be BTN-ing it and since there's no SB Nation Live until 7 I'll be hanging around in there too.

Go Cats and stuff!
