It should be noted that one of his two interceptions fell into the hands of former Hawkeye Diaunte Morrow in the Toledo game. I saw it on tv - right off the receivers hands. They were in the red zone too, IIRC.

It gets much better than that. Partly cloudy, slight breeze and a high of about 48 degrees is absolutely perfect.

Neither of these injuries strikes me as a particularly big deal.

I dreamed that Iowa State scored on a one yard dive with 2 seconds left. Final score - ISU 7, Iowa 56. But the touchdown streak ended!! I woke up in a cold sweat.

We know he was in camp for the first two days, so he's been absent for 11 days. If he returned tomorrow, he'd be in camp for 2 full weeks of practice before the opener. Injured guys have gotten by on less time in camp than that. He will rightfully be put behind the other backs in terms of...

Surprisingly good - Big Ten - Michigan State. I've got them at 10-2 (6-2) with losses to only Purdue and Iowa. Good QB play can take you places, and Cousins is a good one. Throw in a somewhat favorable schedule, and Sparty flushes the poor fortunes of 2009 en route to a memorable '10 and a...

That UNI team had some big game and big atmosphere experience, to go along with their solid line play and veteran QB. They also had pride on the line playing about 90 miles down the road from their own campus against the big dog in the state. Couple that with a flat Iowa team, and you had a...

I bet they still look the other way for about 99% of offenders. I always have one last one as I make the trek from the Library/EPB lot to the stadium. Drink it while going over the Grand Avenue bridge, and toss it in a trash can by the time I pass the dorms or field house. I don't foresee any...

We get there around 7:00 a.m., regardless of kickoff time.

I've watched that video dozens of times this summer. Doesn't get old.

East bank of the Iowa River, off the Main Library/EPB lot. You pay by the hour at the end of the day, and it usually ends up being in the $6.00-$8.00 range, depending on the length of the tailgate/gameday. Definitely more laid back, but these folks are pros for the most part. Lots of grills...

Thursday, I believe.

UConn is a must-win because it's the opener, and another season opening loss like 07 and 08 would create insurmountable turmoil in an already divided fanbase. MSU is a must-win because they've taken the upper hand in the state the last few years, and UM needs to win to begin to take it back...

LOL. I was expecting that. But what fun would this thread be if we all just said "I pack a cooler, a grill, put it in the car and drive to my spot."?

Everything gets packed Friday night except the coffee for the road. I load up the van with 4 chairs (might buy some more this year), the Weber tailgate grill (also have a cheap WalMart back up, if needed), Hawkeye Baggo set, ladders, 2 portable tailgate propane tanks, cooler(s) filled with...

Anyone know when camp officially opens? I'm guessing it will be late next week sometime, but I haven't seen an official date. TIA.

If the Hawks don't turn it over, they'll win. Anyone remember how pathetic the Arizona offense looked against Nebraska in the Holiday Bowl (or against Iowa for the majority of last year's game, for that matter)? Ferentz isn't going to have the boys come out slinging the ball over the field...

+1. Plenty of annoying Badger fans in the Dubuque area, so it's always my favorite game to win. This was one of the few games I hadn't re-watched yet. Really gets the blood running. Just think, we're only 41 days from putting all this heat/humidity/constant thunderstorm nonsense behind...

Good recipe, Hawkfromnorwalk. We made it yesterday and took it to a BBQ for a trial run and everyone loved it. Going to have to put it in the tailgate rotation. I think I'll give your BLT dip a shot, too.

Always better to have the tough ones at home. Look at it this way: say our worst fears are realized and Iowa loses 3 midseason games, is billed as a national disappointment and is out of contention for an upper-tier bowl. As fans, we'll still have something to get jacked about: Ohio effing...
