How does the football get to Iowa?

[Woodsa]

Curious from those in the know how does the football team travel to Iowa--bus or fly?

What is the distance limit that determines when they fly vs. bus?

My son's and were talking and this came up so I was curious. Does the NCAA govern travel?

There used to be a mileage threshold, but I don't know if that's used anymore. I'm sure they're flying to Iowa City. I believe East Lansing was the furthest B1G campus we would drive to. I also don't know if that's different for different sports.

That is exactly what I was thinking. Create a mileage circle, inside the ring, we drive. Outside the ring, fly.

I could see the ring being around 4 hours.

Thanks Chi-Boiler.

On this topic, the road schedule for next year makes for some easy driving. Columbus, Champaign, Gloomington, Madison, East Lansing.

Oh and then Corvallis.

The B1(8)G does have a travel circle. Inside 300 miles it is a drive. It got Iowa a lecture from HQ about flying to places like Illinois and NW to name a couple.
