This week, the Iowa Nice Guy covers everything from Penn State’s annual Top 10 meltdown to Deion’s gospel of Prime, and why Nebraska’s is stuck in a covered wagon wheel rut.

🔥 This Week’s Roasts & Rants:

Penn State: James Franklin is 4–22 vs. Top 10 teams. Great if you’re the French military. 🥖

Missouri: The Tigers might be 5–0, but it’s been all home cooking. Alabama’s about to taste test. 🐘

Iowa State vs. Colorado: Deion’s preaching, but the Cyclones are just playing football — bruised, silent, better. 🌪️

Nebraska: Still living in denial. You can’t rebuild greatness when your biggest tradition is pretending it never left. 🌽

Iowa vs. Wisconsin: Two Australian punters, one ugly game. 🦘

Conference Realignment Rant: Coast-to-coast chaos and how college football traded tradition for TV money. 📺
