Just starting the blog. I will try to get some FCS West team info here in the off-season and some possible national news that pertains to any or all of the CSN West teams.
CEDAR FALLS, IA--I am in Cedar Falls today to see Northern Iowa host Illinois State on the Panthers' homecoming game. It is dark and dreary outside and rained a little this morning here in town.
