If you have lived in Central Iowa for even a minute, you are well aware of the rivalry between the Iowa State Cyclones and the Iowa Hawkeyes. The question is - who does your household support, or are you a house divided?

To be an Iowan is to be many things: kindhearted and welcoming; hardworking; family-oriented. But if you are truly an Iowan, you will either bleed cardinal or you will bleed gold. The choice is yours.

Every year for the last three decades the entire state of Iowa watches one of the biggest college football rivalry games: Iowa State University and the University of Iowa. Each year the teams work hard to earn the coveted Cy-Hawk Trophy. This year people are really looking forward to the game considering ESPN's "College GameDay" picked Ames for its Saturday morning destination. An added element of excitement to be sure.

While there is much to enjoy before, after and during the game, there is a larger question at hand. In the above image, which room are you more likely to spend your time? What kind of room would you add to your home if you could?

At the end of the day, we are all glad to be Iowan's supporting two great teams. Go Cyclon....er.... Good luck to both!

Thousands of people have built a following on Instagram for their curated spaces that look like they were ripped from the pages of a home magazine. With eclectic-yet-cohesive accessories, statement pieces of furniture, and ideal lighting conditions, it’s hard to believe these rooms weren’t styled and shot by a professional, but the truth is, many of these #homestagramers aren’t interior designers or photographers—and you don’t have to be either.
