Alright.
Tomorrow I’ll going to put together an Iowa fans’ guide to dealing with Husker fans.
It’s going to be glorious.

Penn State loss drops Nittany Lions to 0-5 for 1st time in school history. With only maximum of 4 games left, Penn State guaranteed a losing season for 1st time since 2004. This ends 15 consecutive winning seasons, which was nation’s 4th longest current streak
