    This is sad and just ain't right

    when I lived in LA, there were some popular train car diners. Be cool to find a place downtown for George's gyros https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/food/california/train-car-restaurant-socal

    Fry / Ferentz offense, what so different

    I have been around for both. Without going thru 45 years of stats most would lean towards Fry wither better O and Ferentz teams with better D. Other than the standing TE of Fry, both wanted to establish a run. Have a mix of run and pass. But I don't see drastic changes in offensive...

    Friday night game at UCLA

    So I should scalp at game time vs the $116 ticket price I see on U of Iowa site

    Early Odds

    Unfortunately, I see the Big 10 wanting Michigan to dominate and justify a #1 playoff ranking and possibly pulling OSU into the #4 playoff spot. Conf wants to see a Big 10 team win it all. The cards are stacked against us in my opinion.

    Of the pass plays, what % should be getting off in 2.5 seconds or less.

    See this mentioned often in NFL games, really would like to see passing plays get the ball out of the hand very quickly, QB needs to have good feel of what D is presenting, especially 3rd n long it has to be let go quickly, can still run slants and short fly patterns, doesn't mean you are...

    Away football tickets email

    Got the email that away tickets can be ordered on May 25th. But clicking the link never shows any tickets can be ordered yet. Biggest bummer is the "low end" I-club contributors cannot even request tickets at Wrigley Field for Northwestern game. At least they will allow me to request 2 Iowa...

    A fun look at B1G FB helmets throughout the years

    Sometime between 79 and today, I think the tigerhawk emblem looks larger today than during the Fry days.

    Who’s Going To Wrigley?

    searching hotels last night were either sold out or plus $300 a night anywhere. worst case I train it home to North Aurora

    What do y'all think about Brian's pay cut and ultimatum announced publicly today?

    Guess if we are leading at end of the game, no more kneeling on the ball, may need those few extra cheap TD's

    An Open Letter from Gary Barta

    I received as well, not sure of the distribution list, I am a football season ticket holder. But when I read that OSU and other athletic depts allow access to their season ticket holders email, I have no issue if Iowa does the same. Is a fine line but cannot be half pregnant. If the Iowaswarm...

    What should/could NCAA do to regain control?

    not sure the tax laws, 1. I expect players need to report nil money as taxable income (better than under the table cash) 2. I don't think contributions to nil collectives are tax deductable 3. perhaps donations to universities are? or should be tax deductible to make it more enticing where...
