Listening to this podcast with TJ Hockenson and George Kittle and they’re talking about playing Northwestern. A few tidbits:
  • Iowa always thought they were going to blow NU out, but it was always the hardest game
  • “The hardest place to play” is NU at 11:00 AM. Paraphrasing - there’s no fans there but they play the cat growl sound after every play so loudly that you can’t have a conversation on the sideline
  • All week before the NU game, our staff plays that cat growl in practice and in the locker room
Very interesting. Obviously the staff sees NU the way they under Pat Fitzgerald see us, as rivals. I’ve definitely developed a hate for them ever since I was at the 2005 game there.
