It must be a bye week this week and a slow CFB news day in general. :cool:

I'm going to bite again since I have a few minutes at work to kill.... I don't think it is about drinking the Kirk Kool-Aid. Have I seen KF make his fair share of dumb coaching mistakes- absolutely?!?! I'm definitely not blind!!! I also had the luxury of going to 8 of the last 10 bowl...

So if I recall we do have a player on our current team who was named Special Teams Player of the Week two weeks ago for returning punts- right? I think everyone needs to relax a little bit. This is only a big deal because the media knows that Iowa Fans are very passionate and get all fired...

Actually for everyone blasting me about last year's game look back at the box score- It was only 14-3 at half time. We had one fumble at the Northwestern 28 and had a drive stall at the Northwestern 33 because of a delay of game. That's when Northwestern drove down and scored their 2nd TD to...

Shadasrev you are right but it seemed closer in the 2nd half but maybe my booze was clouding my judgement- ha ha

You are right- it is okay when Fitz loses because he is at Northwestern but if Kirk Ferentz loses he is a horrible coach.

I'm not saying Fitz is a bad coach but he needs to get over the grudge against Iowa. It is time for him to move on. I am a season ticket holder at Iowa and have seen a lot of fired up teams since 2004. I think it is pretty low when you say that the players/coaches don't get fired up for a...

Interesting so you watch Northwestern each week? Maybe you should go to their message boards? We definitely sucked the last 2 years but to say these guys aren't fired up is just wrong. The Iowa players and coaches bust their tails all year long but sometimes the ball doesn't bounce our way...

Actually the reason we lost the game to NW in 2008 was because of turnovers. We had 5 turnovers that game and 4 of them were fumbles. 1 was a muffed punt right before halftime and then we fumbled the kick-off to start the 2nd half which killed all of our momentum. We were winning before the...

Meyer looks good

I'm in!!!! Come on Hawkeyenation. We still have a lot of football to play. It isn't like the coaches or kids wanted to lose that game. We have had a lot of bounces go against us this yr but we can still compete with these punks! Go Hawks!!!

Redemption Saturday part II

The stadium was amazing after the interception. Too bad we didn't bring this one home. Everyone would be talking about how great the Hawks are this year. I think we will be giving them a chance to say this next Saturday!

DKJ is an awesome Hawkeye. I met him at an establishment Sat night where we were eating dinner. All I can say is that you could tell he was disappointed but he also was already looking forward to the next game. Have faith in the Hawks! Remember last year we had two losses as well. MSU is a...

Congrats to LeVarr!!!!!
