It is a sea of humanity here. Haven't seen this many people in many years.
Parking is a nightmare. Traffic leaving IC is going to be an even bigger mess than usual.
That's why you plan it out so you don't HAVE to leave right after the game..........

That, of course, would also be on the university to make sure they don't demand that everyone be out within an hour after the conclusion of the game so as to avoid poor judgment and drunk driving as people leave.

But what do I know.........I'm just a monkey.

I think on game days most people get there REALLY EARLY and are in no hurry to get to their cars and get out of there once the game is over.

Hey, I'm an old man and I live in the Des Moines area. I have a bed time you know! At least I never leave a game early, so I got that going for me.

And Iowa State giving up 42 at home against WV only validates everything I stated concerned me three weeks ago.

Next level time, Iowa offense!

Concerned about what I'm seeing around the B1G. NW looks tough, Wisky has seemingly become a competent team, and Minnesota is looking solid. We were worried about the 3 game gauntlet, but it appears the latter half of the season isn't going to be any easier.

Also worries me seeing other teams march up and down the field on ISU. Makes me wonder just how good this team is. Even Minnesota is playing better against Michigan and is doing what we wanted to do against Underwood. Could be the youth of this team, but they're going to have to grow up quick.

I ain’t worried much. Same as 1996 and 2006 and 1986

Gotta hope the boys just improve week over week and hopefully they will be there at the end

When OSU gets the ball, look for them to move quickly down the field. They won't make the same mistake like Michigan and let us hang around.
