    Long & Hard ;)

    Can't tell if you are being sarcastic but my point is this. The last few years we have had a "bend but don't break" defense & our offense wasn't helping out that much with a lot of 3 and outs. So far this year, we have broken that mold. & while as obvious as it seems, it is going to come down to...

    Long & Hard ;)

    If we can do what we did the first 1/2 of the ISU game by having long, drawn out possessions resulting in scores, this isn't even going to be a game. It's our O versus theres, with our D having a big advantage compared to theirs. I like the fact that we can control the time of possession with...

    Bad News From Lee Sterling

    Re: Sterling is certainly no idiot... Iowa has only given up more than 24 points 4 times in the last 2 years + 2 games in '10! So you are right, it's not completely unreasonable, it's highly unlikely! Here's my proof: Over the last 26 games to which I referred, our opponents have had...

    got booted from the ISU game :>(

    Nice story. Too bad Per Mar doesn't kick anyone out, the cops do. If you have never sat in the SW corner of kinnick and watched this happen, you are missing out!

    Bad News From Lee Sterling

    This guy is an idiot. no way ua scores 24 pts, & i dont care if your oline weighs an average of 350 pounds per player, size does not equal skill on the oline. no reference to how ua is going to stop the run, in fact, he gave very little in regards to the positives bout iowa.

    Sick and tired of hearing about Foles not playing last year

    I am sick of hearing about UA. We are light years ahead of where we were at this time last year! Last week proved that.

    what is your bold prediction for saturday?

    I'm going to predict what I predicted before the ISU game, this is going to be ugly/boring. We've turned a corner my friends & last years experiences has made this team so much better. The Bend but don't Break defense has turned into a Smash Mouth Defense. Our offense is a well oiled machine. I...

    Arizona game: Homer's take

    I agree with your assessment but for the most part, I think it comes down to guts & conditioning. We fought through a lot of hard a$$ battles last year & I guarantee that this won't be as hard of a game as OSU was last year. I personally saw a beaten & battered team come off that field & came...

    TOUCHDOWN MOEAKI!!!!

    I was surprised he put on so much weight. I hope he plays healthy and has a great NFL career

    Two Things That Are Truly Absurd

    You are right. Fortunately the kids & coaches don't give two sh$ts about either or those right now, they are just focused on what is right in front of them.

    Steve Deace is Nuts

    Remember, Tate Forcier was touted as the next big thing before he came to Kinnick last year too. I would be more worried about Robinson if UM wasn't holding public tryouts right now on campus to patch up their defense.

    Breaking Down Arizona

    Do you think Foles improved this year as much as Arnaud did? ;)

    BB recruit /shame on u

    Amen. The other two things that need to go are the "gator chomp" & the student section going "O, O, O, O, O, O", like OSU does. If you have ever been to OSU this is more annoying than the thing they sing at the big house. It is impressive however, how loud it gets when the students do it there...

    Well played again Hawks

    I wish you were right. THey have some great coaches in all of their major programs but Jamie Pollard has run the rest out of town (Cael Sanderson is my case in point). He's single handedly running that program into the ground (Trice expansion when they can't even sell what they have out), and...

    Wegher to Transfer to South Dakota?

    RU sure about that? All of the talk from the coaching staff out of spring ball & late summer practices was the progress JH had made. You also have to remember, we never skipped a beat when he subbed for Shaun Greene. Of all 3 of them, assuming JH is 100% over his injury (which I think he...

    One concern

    Not to mention that fact that I would rather have several 3rd and shorts like we did today than 3rd and longs. We had very few of those today

    One concern

    The QB sneak was good everytime because ISU wasn't blocking the middle of the line. They had the Guards blocked by DT's, and the LBs were too far off the line for the QB sneak to not be effective. Pretty scary that a RS FR was leading that charge.

    Did they fix Iowa's "Back in Black" intro this week?

    They played back in black as they came down the tunnel & enter sandman as they came onto the field.

    Tackling

    You might be right. ISU on the other hand, couldn't seem to tackle to save their lives. How many times did they miss ARob on his long run?

    Well played again Hawks

    The first, 10m possession, set the tone of the game. Thanks for the positive words. I hope Hoiberg, Jackson, and Rhodes have nothing but success this year.
