College basketball season is upon us, everyone. That means Iowa men's basketball tips off tonight against Gardner-Webb. There are times in which I'm happy that basketball starts in mid-November in order to provide a distraction from football, but this is not one of those years. Over the past four years or so, Iowa basketball has become the equal of, if not surpassed, my love for Iowa football. And, while I am definitely beyond excited for this season of Iowa basketball, the 2015 football season is a ride that I don't want to take for granted. I certainly want to give the basketball team the attention they deserve, though, so I wanted to put together my thoughts on what I believe may be the biggest challenges for the upcoming season.
