Gazette reporter Mike Bonner and online sports editor Grant Burkhardt talk about Iowa’s loss to Penn State, and discuss the World Series in this episode of the ‘Fresh Forum’ podcast.

The guys explain why Saturday’s loss isn’t James Vandenberg’s fault and brainstorm about the future of Big Ten football and Iowa’s place in it, especially with offensive minds like Urban Meyer and Bill O’Brien being head coaches in the conference with bright futures.

Then Mike and Grant talk about the World Series, and the guys play a few fun games at the end of the episode.
