I'd Rather (Blank) Than Lose to the Iowa Hawkeyes...

Noon Report: Hog bellies are up 2 pennies.   Soybeans are off a nickle, and the line for the #10 ranked Iowa Hawkeyes versus #9 ranked Iowa State Cyclones Holds at ISU -4.5.  The weather calls for Central Iowa being  hot and humid on Saturday for the 3:30 CDT kickoff.  

The Big 12 has officially offered invitations to join The Big 12 today, for BYU, Cincinnati, UCF, and Houston.   Houston and BYU immediately accepted and set out a press release publicly stating their acceptance.   Cincy, and UCF will follow in kind very soon.   I will have more to say on this later.   It is a positive mover for The Big 12 in the short.   But, I believe there are still many longer term ramifications to follow later.  But, let's celebrate Bob Bowslby made an aggressive move and it helps stabilize the conference for the next few years.   I would submit that the work is just beginning. 

My traditional I'd Rather (blank) Than Lose to the Iowa Hawkeye segment is up next.   It is a Hawk Week Favorite.

What does a Hawkeye call a Cyclone when they graduate?   A:  Boss. 

The Current line on the game is Iowa State -4.5 which has gained steam over the week.  That means Iowa State is favored by 4.5.   I won't play the points, but I will take Iowa State for a close win, 3 points or less on Saturday. 

Forever True !!!
