    Iowa vs Ball State Predictions

    Enough with the should of and could of's of the U of A game, we have a decent opponent coming into kinnick this week and we need to be ready. I think Iowa handles Ball State, we will probably look a little slow just do to the hangover from the U of A game. Iowa 45 Ball St 10 Iowa will try to...

    Penn State now the barometer game

    I will say all 3 teams are pretty good, but they all have their weaknesses that are killing them. PSU- their inability to run the ball is killing them, Royster has yet to get over the 100yd mark this year and their oline is struggling this year. Michigan- Their defense is terrible, they...

    What do you take from this quote?

    I can see Iowa still running the ball with Coker and Robinson. I think they can get a lot of toss sweeps and some screen plays set up. I have faith in this coaching staff that they will rally the troops and get them back to playing ball this week. We are fine, we just need the defense to step up...

    Arizona fans verbally and physically assault Iowa fans.......on video!!!

    All my buddies who went to the game said there was some rude people around them as well. One arizona fan even tried to grab one of the girls because she told him to shut up. Needless to say there was a security guard right there and he took the U of A fan out right away. and several of the other...

    Every September Hawks Have a Bad Game

    Arizona isn't a good team? I mean we are talking about a team that could possibly finish in the top of the PAC 10. USC was from the same league when they beat OSU back to back years. And if I remember wasn't their game out Cali a blow-out? Last year we really didn't have a tough non-conf...

    re-watched the game last night

    Wow ESPN sucks at coverage of a game, dang I hope all our games are on ABC or Big Ten. No post game coverage and i am sorry but I really did not care about Auburn post game interview with chizik! Offense: well oline struggled, but arizona had at least by my count (18 times) 9 guys in the box...

    Does anyone think Vandenberg will be /or is now a better quarterback than Stanzi?

    Vburg is pretty solid but does anyone remember his performance against Minny last year? how many times did he get sacked? Overall I think stanzi is the better QB and I think he will still lead us to a great year this year. Vburg will get his time next year and hopefully will be a good QB, I...

    It's better to lose early in the season.

    College Football is a fun time of year, no matter no team is safe. I seriously have seen a lot of the teams play and there are only 2 teams right now that have distanced themselves from everyone else. OSU & Alabama have looked pretty darn good in their first few games. After those two I don't...

    Trouble with Saturday's BSU game....

    I like the fact we have an opponen in ball state coming to town. yes they are no PSU or even ISU, but they will provide Iowa with a different look and also will try to kick the hawks while their down. Ball state is not that good, they lost to Div 2 presbyterian i think or Liberty one of those...

    Best 4 on the Defensive Line

    I will agree Iowa needs to blitz more and drop AC and Binns back into coverage at times! Also I wouldn't mind seeing Iowa sub in a LB at the DE position and drop him back into coverage at times. Arizona knew what we were going to do and they exploited it. They weren't worried about the deep...

    Who W of Rockies would you schedule...

    I want us to start scheduling areas where we recruit heavily. This crap of going out west to please the "snow birds" and all the Iowa alums out there ain't cutting it. I personally don't really care if we play West of the rockies anymore. I want us scheduling teams that we are constantly going...

    Best 4 on the Defensive Line

    Where was our Dline saturday night? Clayborn was getting doubled team all night and no one even stepped up. Was Ballard hurt, i barely saw him in the game. I thought our dline did not play very well, I hope they get their heads on straight, all those dink passes, some of them should of been...

    I know Iowa fans thought they never wanted to see a WR bubble screen again

    They had 7 guys in the box and they were bringing a corner or an outside LB every down. The problem was he wasn't just coming up the middle. One time he came from the outside and caused everyone to bump out and our center missed his block. The next play he came right up the middle and their...

    Great Game Hawkeye Fans, and way to battle back!

    SlimCat Thanks for the words, it was a odd game. Both teams had their good moments and both teams had their bad moments. I just couldn't understand what stoops was going nuts about after every flag. I think he even complained after Iowa got flagged one time?? Anyways good Luck the rest of the...

    At this same time last year, Iowa wasn't ranked.

    SDK46 yeah this loss hurt, but this year we are starting two new LB's and also a CB. Now I know you can't compare that to 2 freshman RB's, but those 3 guys were picked on Saturday night. Arizona knew how to keep our DLINE in check, throw short passes and throw in a draw or screen pass...
