    Most Important Stat For Wisconsin Game?

    How many times we throw on first down and how successful we are when doing so. Part of the reason we rolled OSU last year was because we weren't so predictable calling plays on offense, and specially on first down.

    After Wisky 3-1; new look at remaining games

    10-2 gun to my head, but 12-0 or 9-3 are just as likely.

    Winning with a 1 dimensional offense

    If we don't start utilizing our WR's, our recruiting at that position is never going to improve. Stanley's play and the play calling in general haven't helped either.

    CLOWN questions

    If you ask Iowa State fans, they think they're better across the board. Not just the fans, but the writers on CycloneFanatic. It's embarrassing how they've been unable to handle such marginal success, but I'm not the least bit surprised either.

    Hawkeye Football Notebook: Rastetter Named Starting Punter

    How is this possible? Rastetter ranked 106 out of 107 in yards per punt! For a team/coach that values field position so much, it's mind boggling how he's the best option...

    Depth Chart for Week 1

    Did Ferguson beat out Levi Paulsen or was it more of a byproduct of Levi being injured during camp? I thought the Paulsen twins were going to make great guards and be starters for a couple of years based off the high acclaim when they came to the program. Have they under performed or has it...

    Are Hawkeye media adequately diligent?

    Kakert acts like a fanboy sometimes as opposed to credentialed media. He'll attack posters on HR for simply critiquing Iowa players whom he's close to. His fanboy definitely showed up during Mike Gesell's senior year and he lost his mind. It was a bad look.

    More suspensions on the way

    I'm sure it's a mere coincidence that 20 some Alabama football players had citations all involving new or 3-4 year old Dodge Chargers. You also glossed over Nick Saban not kicking players off the team and Pat White and others being offered a Corvette (allegedly) to go to Alabama. Like I said...

    More suspensions on the way

    Haha, every case is different (but way to reference one, I can do that); DJ Pettway didn't get kicked off the team following robbery and fake credit card use: https://www.al.com/alabamafootball/index.ssf/2016/01/2_years_after_getting_second_c.html You also never see articles like this with...

    More suspensions on the way

    Wait, Saban’s players having less of a rap sheet than Kirks is a joke right?

    More suspensions on the way

    This thread really got sidetracked. They're college kids, and with 100+ players these things are going happen and do happen to every program. It's hard to imagine anyone running a cleaner program over the course of 20 years than Kirk, so let's not act like it's suddenly a rogue program.

    Matt Campbell Ohio State's next head coach

    I'm not convinced Campbell is that great of a coach, and certainly not to the level of OSU standards. He won at Toledo, (so has everyone else) and inherited a good program. He won 3 games his first year at Iowa State, and won 7 this past year (but they had no business winning more than 5) with...

    ESPNU Top 25 Games of 2017

    If it were 'most important games' or 'biggest upset games' it would undoubtedly be at the top of the list, I'm interpreting 'top' games to be the best games and a 55-24 blowout wouldn't qualify as such. Hoping I'm wrong though, I never get tired of watching that game. Really hoping that plan...

    ESPNU Top 25 Games of 2017

    Penn State, yes. Ohio State wasn't even a contest, no way that is a top game of 2017 except from an Iowa perspective. ... So while I'd rate it No. 1, don't expect it to crack the list.

    This hurts to say, but...

    Nobody is upset Iowa just missed out on Carton, it's the culmination of missing out on all of the top PG prospects on a year in and year out basis. I would venture to say Iowa hasn't landed it's top PG target since Pierre Pierce which was 18 years ago! Iowa fans don't expect to win recruiting...
