    Any Kafka Updates?

    This will be a true test the depth of Fitz's hatred for Iowa. If he plays Kafka, at the expense of a shot at a bowl, he is as dumb as I suspected. I just cannot imagine how a hammy bad enough to pull outta a game they had a legit chance at a big upset in...like PSU...how could that same hammy be...

    Prediction

    If you parlayed those three and hit it, you could go to Vegas and collect big. I say Oregon has the best shot, with Ok St a slim hope and Ga. is not capable.

    Glenn Mason= *******

    You do realize that in that segment, one guy has to say trick and one guy treat,right? So Mason got the short straw. On the next question on Pryor, Mason got the trick again and Dinardo got the treat. Not defending Mason as much as just pointing out that if they both agreed, it would not...

    Lead Pipe Locks & Stone Cold Upsets - Week 9

    Gut feeling..the gophers pull this one outta their butts. Dantonio has been hung over all week, they dismissed two players(probably to open up a couple more schollys) and I think those players will reflect this malaise on the field. Dreams up in smoke now, only Cousins can save them...

    Todd Lickliter Quotes from Big Ten Media Event

    I almost feel sorry for Lick altho he has made 2.4 million at iowa already,but when you look at these questions,it is apparent the media has not bothered to even find out who our players are,really. I mean, asking about football, the IU game and Archie? Seems like lame questions when they should...

    a few observations on the last play

    DJK was just firing up the troops...no time for smiles..just game facing it. That was a nice clip of Marvin and Ricky hugging in the locker room...as qbs they probably spent a lot of time together in marvins first two years...before he flipped to WR. Could not be happier for both guys.

    College Hoops: Preseason Coaches Poll

    AP Poll: 2. MSU 7. Purdue 15.Mich 16 OSU 23.Ill 25 Minny. I actually think they have the right teams but not the right order... Big Ten projections: MSU PU Minny OSU Mich. Ill. NW Wis PSU IU Ia. I really think Minny could be a sleeper in the league and on the national scene...FF darkhorse.

    Big Ten Hoops Media Picks

    On Andy Katz's twitter he twitted that the coaches do not want to single out the bottom teams but said here is a clue..Iowa was 11th. Also made a catty comment about how lonely Lick was in terms of media attention...Katz ,a wisky grad, seems to have it in for Iowa. He was always leaking stuff...

    When the dust settles at the end of the season, Lick may be the BTCOTY

    Lick has a lot of contract security with this only being his 3rd year of a 7 year deal. No way Iowa makes a move on him at least til after year 5...and probably not even then. Iowa just does not fire coaches. They might not renew his deal after year 7 but they will not fire him. Last coach they...

    HN: Iowa vs Indiana Prediction

    Oldalum...in your scenario Iowa wins 31 -27. I am saying it will be a solid game for Iowa ....Hawks 20 IU 10. Not a blowout,but a solid win. Go Hawks.

    I'm concerned about the tone and tenor of our crowd.

    It is simply unacceptable to be dropping f-bombs like that....sorry,being overserved is no excuse. As a fan base we need to civily confront the jerks, ask them politely to please clean up the language, and if they persist, call security. Why should all of us who paid good money for our ticket...

    Riley Reiff

    He is very athletic and does a good job of getting to the second level to block lbs...so glad he changed his mind and came to Iowa over Nebraska.

    Kinnick Memories

    Good one. I was at that NW game ...streaking is so retro. My 70's memories were heavily skewed by the ability to easily smuggle a sixpack into the game...we would sit on the grass in the corners and drink beer and enjoy the futility. The best one was the huge win...45-28 over Wisky in the late...

    I say at worst we go 2-2

    I think IU is a team we should handle,but NW worries me...they really throw the ball well,leading the league in passing yardage. I just do not think we can get into a shootout with our offense sputtering. I think we will win but it could be another MSU close game...Minny? Too far away to worry...

    McNutt on BTN tonight

    I heard that KF will be on the coaches show on the BTN on thursday with Dinardo and Mason... Iowa is the face of Big Ten football and the BTN in 2009...I like it.

    There are no excuses.

    It has already been one of the great seasons in recent history. And it can get even better...but it cannot ever be a bad season. This last 12 games have been so exciting to those of us oldtimers who remember struggling to win 3-4 games a season in the 70's it is just indescribable. I pinch...

    Injuries affecting more than just Iowa: Gophers' Decker out for season

    Wonder if Brewster abandons the pro set, puts Gray in at QB and goes with the spread again? If he does, they might give us some trouble..Gray is a very good dual threat qb.

    I say at worst we go 2-2

    Defense will carry us to a 3-1 or 4-0 finish. Either way, we go to Pasadena for the holidays!!!

    New Iowa Football Facilities? (Photos)

    Iowa is a football school. The practice facility for bb seems to be about a decade overdue, while football facilities just spring up out of nowhere. I do not have an issue with that, but I wonder how our bb coaching staffs feel about it.

    Good News = Greenwood is fine

    Kirk said punt returning would more like be Spievey and Sash. Said DJK just has not taken to punt returning well.
