I also didn't say that either Iowa or Wisky have the "best" gamedays atmospheres, but I do think you are grossly devaluing both. I am NOT an Iowa fan, but I can be objective enough to know that they do have great atmosphere, and that means more than just tailgating (which your description wasn't even accurate in describing anyway, IMO). Not trying to pick a fight with you Dave, cuz I like your posts and input, but I think your hatred of the Big 10 is clouding you a bit on this one.
    Fixed it for accuracy.

    I know you didn't say they were the best, but I think "top notch" is still giving them a little more credit than they deserve. I have been to both and would say their overall gameday atmosphere is good. Middle of the pack for a BCS school. Nothing too special, but definitely a good time.
    As for their tailgating, I was probably just in the wrong areas, but it seems as the majority of tailgating is at house parties and bars. Yes, they have regular tailgaters in the lots, but you either had to be a big time donor or the lot was miles away from the stadium (which vastly reduces overall gameday atmosphere, IMO)
    Both of those schools have better tailgating than Nebraska, though. Nebraska's tailgating is Non-Existant. They have good "in game" atmosphere, if you don't mind sitting on top of other people, with a majority of seating in the freakin endzone.

And these were the same people that after the game, continued to tell me how much UNI sucks and has no business being in IC. Hawk fans have huge entitlement issues and I feel like they are the Chicago Cubs of college football/basketball. Everynow and then they are decent-mediocre yet talk to the homers and you'd think they were the best thing since sliced bread...actually that a terrible comparison since at least Cub fans acknowledge how irrelevent they are.

            Because then you come back with irrelevant responses and one-liners that only further the proof that you are a Hawkeye homer? I agree 9yr, you should probably get that problem looked at

              well i was an iowa fratstar wearing UNI colors at that game with no issues, so its fairly obvious that you are the problem in this circumstance. as for the rest of your post, i really have no idea what you are talking about.

                Whatever dude, go gush over Stanzi the Panzi and keep telling yourself that Hawk fans aren't arrogant tools. If you didn't wear the tinted glasses too you'd realize how annoying and pathetic quite a few of them are. I hope you can join us in the real world sometime soon as once upon a time you actually contributed to conversations.

                  again I ask, what are you talking about and how does it apply to this conversation?

                    Nice to see Northern Colorado on the schedule in 2013. Everyone should come out to Greeley. Me, Chi Panther and OliveStreet95 love you long time.

                      Lol at Mad.

                      "Save us the stories, but here is mine."

                      Next time try and tell a believable story. Lol. You do get credit for creativity, however.

                      Wisconsin is infamous. I'm sure the "everything said by anyone who doesn't hate the hawks is wrong" contingent around here has it figured out, however.

                      There isn't a group of people anywhere on earth who are more irrationally obsessed with Iowa than some of you. They have nothing to do with this game or subject, but of course that angle has to be added. You people are a stitch.

                        Yes, its everyone else who is crazy.

                        The only reason it was brought up is because, literally the only people who had anything bad to say about Wisconsin was every single Iowa fan on this board.

                        In fact, it appears that it is Iowa fans who are irrationally obsessed with someone, and its the Badgers.

                          perhaps that is because fans of team in their conference have a greater propensity to travel there and tailgate amongst them EVERY SINGLE YEAR????

                          **** iowa gets owned by northwestern every single year and you dont see us *****ing about them.

                            I just saw in Sports Illustrated that they ranked Wisconsin as the #2 gameday atmosphere in college football. Fwiw...
                            The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

                                9 and NB you guys spend soooo much time defending the Hawks I truly wonder if you guys care about UNI at all. I just don't see how you guys have time. I am not trying to bring up the whole "dual fans go away argument" thats not what I mean. It just boggles my mind how un-believably long the black and gold blinders are on your head (which is okay, you guys are fans) yet you still continue to show up here and spend so much time, most of it, just defending and promoting the Hawks. Is it worth your trouble? Seriously?

                                Madcat is a dual fan, he is very clear about it, but on any given afternoon reading panthernation I know where his allegiences lie. I know you guys will just say its because "he isn't as big as a Badger fan as you guys are Iowa fans" or "his other team isn't getting bashed all the time" but its getting out of control you two. And I would like to think that I have gotten along with the two of you and been civil recently, its just going on too often, to too far of levels.

                                Sorry Just my two cents...
