Ow my Ball State!

The best thing about last week:  Iowa won. And the game-winning drive didn’t stall outside of field goal range, like say, the 10 yard line.  The guys break down the ugliest of ugly wins, wonder if the Tuesday News Gremlin is stealing Tory’s thunder, and look ahead to a visit from the Cyclones.
