Our SGI Sports team got together for our third pick ’em football podcast of the year. We picked 8 DIII, DII, and NAIA Games involving the teams we cover in Iowa.
The Battle for Dubuque happens today just about a 12 block walk down Loras to University Avenue between the DuHawks and Spartans.
Wartburg has a tough road tilt against the Simpson Storm in Indianola. The UIU Peacocks take a long road trip to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan to face the #24 Ranked NAIA team in the country.

All of us have day jobs and family commitments and each SGI Pick’em leader will make the podcast when they can.

As we go through the season we will have our SGI team on the weekly podcast. If you have been reading our content you know that we are a free publication with no paywall and all our SGI is 100% volunteer.
The lines we are using come from two great sites Massey Ratings for NAIA and D2 games and Hansen Ratings for DIII games. So, a big thank you to both those great sites and teams for the work they do to promote NAIA, DII, FCS and DIII Football.
Our goal is to have fun and bring some sunshine to the smaller Iowa Colleges and Universities (23 inside the Iowa State borders) with special attention to the former Iowa High School players who are competing at those schools.
As always, we appreciate your comments and support. Thank you for following us on X, Instagram and our podcast channels.
