Things seemed to be going good.

Well, after Iowa State won their first two games I was excited to watch the Iowa vs. Iowa State game on T.V. (I didn’t go to Iowa City this year for the game. Got stuck doing homework.) Sadly, it wasn’t to be this year as the Hawkeyes beat us 17-5. It all came down to the Iowa State offense who had the ball within scoring range several times in the game but could not convert.

Aside from that, the Bears beat the Colts in their season opener in what was deemed an upset (If only this game was the 2006 Super Bowl right? That would’ve been awesome.) But after this, the Bears had very close losses to the Carolina Panthers and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Each loss the Bears were within a field goal of the other team but could not manage to pick up the points.

This week, Chicago will be taking on the Philadelphia Eagles and Iowa State as a bye week but next weekend will be playing in conference for the first time against the Kansas Jayhawks. Hopefully both teams will turn it around.
