SATURDAY GAME THREAD: IOWA-NORTHERN ILLINOIS, FIRST QUARTER

Your game information:

KICKOFF: 2:30 CST
LINE: Iowa -8/8.5, depending on who you ask
TELEVISION: ESPNU
RADIO: Station list here
WEATHER: This is the big factor here. Whatever is left of Hurricane Isaac is going to blow through Chicago eventually this afternoon. Rain has been sporadic during pregame, but the map does not look good. Highly likely the notoriously terrible Soldier Field playing surface is about to get worse.
BHGP: We'll update threads as necessary, probably every quarter (the SBN servers haven't exactly moved quickly today
RULES: No politics, no racism, no sexism, no homophobia, no xenophobia, no illegal streams of games, no porn, and just don't be a jackass.
