Yeah, we already knew that, Minnesota. But thanks for reminding us that your house is, indeed, Kinnick North. Always and forever. Hugs and kisses!

Let's just hope...
the Hawkeyes never, ever start resorting to smoke or fog machines for their entrances.
I've sentenced boys younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn't want to do it. I felt I owed it to them.

I don't care what EA thinks...
Iowa will always walk out in a swarm to Enter Sandman. There is just nothing else.
In heaven there is no beer. This isn't heaven, it's Iowa.
I know
What a bunch of BS. NCAA 11 has the new intro for all the big name teams but they don’t do Iowa’s correctly. GRRRRR.

Fuck. The day I bought that game..
I was so pumped to see the swarm, and than I witnessed the repeated fuck-up by EA. I about shit myself.

That's the stupidest expression ever for a football poster
Did they have somebody from a hospitality background write that? It’s very inviting, I just hope they have a continental breakfast, preferrably with a waffle station. I like that when I visit a home away from home.
It was punchier than...
….“Please come watch us play.”

and shorter than
“If you buy season tickets, you get to watch USC, Ohio St, Penn St and Iowa play.”

That is a pretty good home slate
Only way it could be better was if they played for the Axe at home. Then they could lose 5 games at home, instead of 4.

If only.
But I believe Minnesota deliberately schedules Iowa and Wisco at home on opposite years. Probably so that in the Hump Dump days they were guaranteed one sellout each year.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
I'm pretty sure that's the Big Ten's doing actually
The same way that we always play one of Wisky/Minnesota at home each season. It’s all the work of the Big Ten supercomputers! No accounting for why Iowa has had to play its Big Ten opener on the road every year though.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
We managed to avoid that little bugaboo this year, though.
Which is kind of nice.

Minnesota
I work on campus here, so I see a lot of people I think maybe Minnesota football players…mostly because they’re larger guys, wear a lot of maroon and gold gear with “Minnesota Football” on it, and don’t look like they could score a point against Iowa.
Anyway, today I saw one of those kind of guys, with a Minnesota-Iowa Floyd t-shirt, that said “We own the neighborhood”. If I weren’t afraid to be the next guy to be assaulted by a Minnesota player, I’d have reminded him of the 67-0 over the past two games.

Was it one of those retro tees?
From the 60s or 70s? Maybe that’s their motto for the christening of the new Kinnick North.

"Our House Is Your House."
All things considered, I would presume this includes the restrooms as well, eh Minny-soooota?
They tried to hire Ray Lewis and Under Armor....
But there aint no protecting that house! RIMSHOT

is it possible
…to write EA and complain enough that they might make a patch for that and possibly add the victory polka?
"Doctor says he’s going to be 11-12 pounds ... We’re penciling him in as a linebacker for the Iowa Hawkeyes, but Mom says no way."
They'll add the Polka
right after they fix the huge problem with the game. So…NCAA Football 2012.
Everyone fails. The successful learn from their failures. I just wish we'd quit giving ourselves so many learning opportunities.

I have no idea what problem that is
Since I don’t even own a gaming console. But it’s kind of funny that they don’t have the victory polka, since their ad on this and other sites explicitly mentions the polka.
I think there is a really big issue with the Season Showdown servers.

wait...
In NCAA football 2011 there is no in heaven there is no beer, even though in heaven there is no beer was in the commercials for NCAA football 2011?
Brunettes not fighter jets
I don't own the game, but if it's anything like 2010
then you can just upload the song to your Xbox or PS3 and use the custom game sounds to play the song after every home game. You could do the same for Hey Jude after the third.

yeah...
they look at the top 25 to base their top 25 on and go “What the fuck is an Iowa?”
