    Wegher gone - released from scholarship

    I never thought he was all that good last year anyways. I remember some of the holes he and ARob ran through in the 2nd half of the Orange Bowl, I could have run cart-wheels through some of the holes. Our OL made them look better than they really were. I hate losing RB depth, it surely hurt...

    Things To Do In and Around Tempe

    Old Town downtown Scottsdale is pretty cool. Great golf everywhere. I think the Cowboys are in town on Christmas day.

    Tune into Pitt-Cincy now to see why B10 title game

    I've been to the SEC championship game on 2 occasions- I am a huge Big Ten guy, but that venue and set-up, especially being inside on a Saturday evening/night is really, really cool. An electric atmosphere with teams with a goal each August to get to Atlanta in December.

    How does Florida end up in the Outback bowl?

    Pumped to get jumped by a Florida team they beat a few weeks ago? I highly doubt that. A New Year's Day Outback Bowl is much more lucrative regardless of what they may say publicly. Outback took Florida to fill seats plain and simple. Playing at the same Georgia Done venue you just went to a...

    Ferentz Won't Confirm/Deny KOK Indiana Talk

    Indiana AD: Hey Hoosier fans, you remember that anemic Iowa offense that came here a month ago? Well, how about we get their OC to jump aboard our team, bring O back to the stone ages, coupled with our awful D. You look ahead to Hoosier basketball now by October, we'll do our best to get you...

    How does Florida end up in the Outback bowl?

    Penn State will fill the hotels, Florida will fill the stadium, plain and simple. I doubt South Carolina fans would have traveled all that well given their loss to Auburn, they all traveled to Atlanta already (short trip though). I feel bad for SC, they get/have to go back to the Georgia...

    Insight: Missouri over Nebraska ?

    I am trying to put myself in the Insight Bowl's shoes and figure out why they selected Missour over Nebraska, a year after they had little hope that Missouri would travel and they picked a 6-6 Iowa State that Mizzou beat head to head. Nebraska carries significantly more clout, travels way...

    Gruden to Michigan?

    I'd love to see RichRod get canned, it would set Michigan back a few more years to re-recruit a new scheme of players.

    We Don't Have the Market Cornered

    They only call it a meltdown around here because ISU fans establish such low expectations of themselves and revel in Iowa's disappointments much more than their own success. They rarely pay attention their own team once you turn the calendar to October, well unless they beat Texas or Nebraska...

    KF's little note card

    1. Take the kickoff when you have your 1st team RB suspended in Q1 vs. Ohio St. 2. Run the fade inside the red zone 3 times to our stud, short WR 3. Short side sweep 4. Keep your O simple...well unless your up 30-6 vs. Michigan State then run a reverse pass for McNutt

    21-19

    21-19 will put you right in the middle of the bell curve. I'll spare myself the time putting together the stats, I am certain Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State are ahead of us, maybe us, MSU, and Purdue in the middle followed by the rest of the pack, no science to that. Top 15, I hope you are...

    21-19

    21-19 and yet there's a very confident segment of HawkeyeNation that continues to preach how great we've had it and how appreciative we should be to be where we are. KF is our man and I am confident we should stay the course, but the staff seriously needs to look themselves in the mirror and...

    11-30 Ear to the Ground Bowl Update

    Agreed, he and I both thought we were headed to Glendale last year. I think Insight is where we'll be at and I am relatively indifferent. Tempe beats Jacksonville IMO. Then I think it will be OSU, Mizzou a long shot. I just don't see the Alamo passing up on Nebraska or OU's fan base unless...

    What Happened to "Next Man In"?

    Our INJ's this year unfortuneately occurred at the positions we could not afford to get hit. We were already re-building at LB, a position we lost 2 of the most under-appreciated LB's we've ever had. I say under-appreciated because our scheme puts a lot of pressure on LB's to play in pass...

    Melvin Gordon

    If I was a RB, I know what O I'd rather play for...and I don't even like wearing RED. Of course at Iowa, any RB that has any semblence of staying healthy is bound to get their share of carries in the years to come.
