If you haven’t looked at the weather conditions in Lincoln, Nebraska Friday, be prepared for some crap because when the Iowa football team takes on Nebraska it will likely be in low-40s weather with a mix of sleet, rain, and snow. Precipitation is listed at 80% and the wind is expected to be between 10 and 20 miles per hour.
And that doesn’t make the game easy for anyone. It doesn’t make it easy for the Iowa football team’s main source of points, Keith Duncan, to kick field goals. It doesn’t make it easy for senior quarterback Nate Stanley to air the ball out, and it doesn’t make it easy for Brian Ferentz who has to devise an offensive game plan that will lean heavily on the run even though his team’s rushing performance has been putrid at best this season.
