Not unlimited, but let's say four figures is no problem.  Iowa @Nebraska might be the obvious choice, but I live in NYC and the last time I was at Kinnick Tim Dwight was playing.  I went to the PSU game last season and obviously had a fantastic time, but I'd really rather go to Iowa City than Lincoln.

SO...Northwestern?  Michigan?  Any advice on which tickets to get, scalper sites to use, places to stay?  Do I need a car to get around?  I plan to get to the stadium early regardless and am not actually a big tailgaiter, so am really just looking for the best atmosphere and viewing angles.  Not an alum or donor, but happy to spend whatever it takes to get the best experience as an Iowa fan.

Apologies if these kinds of posts are discouraged or should be tagged or separated or something, still relatively new here.
