Seems like more Iowa fans would go versus Mich fans traveling there. If it is about tourist dollars.

Ed O’Neill was a tough one growing up. There’s a great Fly on the Wall Podcast episode with him being interviewed by Dana Carvey and David Spade. Funny and interesting.
"IOWA CITY — When Iowa football learns its postseason bowl destination on Sunday, it will be in relatively rare company.
It will be the Hawkeyes’ 12th consecutive bowl invitation — tied for the fifth-longest streak in college football. The only teams with longer active streaks are Georgia, Oklahoma, Alabama and Clemson. (Wisconsin had a longer streak, but the Badgers finished this season with a 5-7 record.)
As for which bowl selects the Hawkeyes, the ReliaQuest Bowl in Tampa, Fla., and the Music City Bowl in Nashville, Tenn., appear to be the two most likely options."
I like Tampa because I lived there - I taught elementary PE in St. Pete and had to drive across the long bridge twice a day. We had snow flurries one day which suprised me. I won two races at McDill Air Force base - a 5 mile run and 2 weeks later a 10 mile race.
My daughter graduated from the U. of Iowa and was in the Hawkeye marching band. They had fun at the beach with the Iowa football team.

The 2009 Outback Bowl was a college football bowl game played on January 1, 2009, at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. The 23rd edition of the Outback Bowl, it was one of the 2008–09 bowl games concluding the 2008 NCAA Division I FBS football season. Scheduled for a kickoff of 11 a.m. EST and telecast on ESPN, the game pitted the South Carolina Gamecocks against the Iowa Hawkeyes.
Iowa jumped out to a large lead, leading South Carolina 21–0 at halftime and 31–0 at the end of the third quarter, en route to a 31–10 victory. Shonn Greene, the MVP, had 29 rushes for 121 yards and three rushing touchdowns. Stanzi was the quarterback. Wish we had him back to throw touchdowns on 2 consecutive plays - Against Indiana - also had 5 interceptions in that game which we won. WOW

Duke's mayo bowl vs Duke. Would that constitute a home field advantage? What would the spread be? 
I hope it’s not against an SEC team. Tired of seeing their backups make Iowa look like a mediocre high school team.
You don’t want Colorado. They are Iowa’s worst nightmare in terms of matchups.
Should get used to seeing SEC teams on our docket in the future as the P2 work on a scheduling alliance in the coming years
Yeah. Iowa would be double digit dogs vs Tennessee or Ole Miss. No Bama please.
Nicely done. I think most will catch it.Duke's mayo bowl vs Duke. Would that constitute a home field advantage? What would the spread be?
Iowa beat an SEC team two years ago. Ferentz is 6-7 in bowl games against current SEC schools.
Rate Bowl in Phoenix. We won’t drop that low. That’ll be a Nebraska-Texas Tech-type matchup.
Yep, the guy who usually gives the benefit of the doubt to coaches rather than fans.
Says absolutely everything that needs to be known about this board
Then leave. I bet you won't. We're all you have.
