Iowa City-Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald will assure you that Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City is one of the toughest places for a visiting football team to play. That might be true, but Fitzpatrick is 2-0 in his coaching visits to the "mecca" of football. The Cats won in 2006 and 2008. Fitzpatrick is quick to remind a listener that they played pretty well in those games and got some key turnovers.

Iowa and Northwestern kickoff at 11:05 Saturday in Kinnick.
