You bring up a good point Jon...or at least I think you do. Even Ferentz's most ardent detractors would agree that he is nothing if not consistent with his philosophies and this coaching staff changes rarely changes up the play calling. Yet other teams just figured it out in the latter half...

Keep in mind...Chris Johnson put up those numbers last year with a touchdown vulture in Lendale White. I doubt that his backup this year (Javon Ringer) will take many goal line touches away from him...he could get even better.

Bump. This is my favorite thread in a long time. Thanks fellas.

Post of the year! I haven't laughed that hard in a while. I'm good enough...I'm smart enough...and gosh darn it...people like me! Let's break it down a little further 1.) I "majored" in... Stop right there...so you didn't graduate. Oh yeah and what does majoring in History have to do...

I remember watching an old school (probably 1950's) Ohio St vs. Michigan football game on the BTN a while back. I can't remember exactly the scenario...one team was backed up near their own goal line (I think it was Ohio St). The announcer then pulled out this beauty: One thing these Ohio St...

NCAA College Football Power Rankings Preseason - ESPN Highlights (as far as I'm concerned): Hawks come in at #9 overall...which I think is about right. Ivan Maisel, ESPN.com Senior Writer picks the Hawks 2nd...probably a little high. Bruce Feldman is clearly an idiot - one of three voters...

I'm heading out with a fairly large group...young and old...some of the elders have been going to games for many moons now. We went to Columbus last year and had a blast...until after the game. We're unfamiliar with the landscape and my friend and I wouldn't mind meeting up with some Hawks...

Re: NO MORE WEGHER THREADS Was Brinson strictly because of playing time? I thought I remembered there being more to his departure than playing time...not anything negative IIRC just something besides playing time.

Re: NO MORE WEGHER THREADS Given the recent pictures of Coker in a sling that have surfaced I'd say it's safe to say that Coker will miss at least some time...if not significant time. Rogers had a year to learn the system and fine-tune his blocking skills and could be an interesting option at...

They return nearly their entire team on both sides of the ball. They will be dominating on defense as always...and will be able to run the ball on anyone in the country. Last year they had 3 slip ups...a loss to USC...a loss to Purdue and a little too close for comfort against Navy. That...

This. I think the real point here is that Ohio St is as good as anyone in the country...probably better. And they're a given. Iowa has the potential to be as good or better than anyone in the country but we've still got a few uncertainties (OL, LB, RB, Rick Sixes, Health is always a...

I have the #1 pick in my league...and I was leaning toward Johnson the last couple of days because while he rushed for 2000 yds last season...he didn't have very many tds because they had Lendale White taking a lot of those. This year...they've got Vince Young at QB and their backup running...

For nerds like me...this really begs the question...does this make Adrian Petersen the undisputed #1 running back in fantasy football?

I just posted on the "Message Board Guys I Hate" thread about how I hate the guy who calls people out for their lack of reading comprehension skills...but come on man. I guess that's not even reading comprehension...that's just reading.

I doubt Delaney could take a single member of our roster this year in an arm wrestling contest...much less Adrian Clayborn.

If I were a season ticket holder (which I am not)...I would much rather get an Iowa State home game every other year than have an extra game one out of two years against Idaho International. I'm sure that people will bring up the lost revenue for the University due to a lost home game every...

I don't think you can earn the right to be a spokesman for the team simply by showing up on the field. Plenty of wide receivers in the NFL have shown their talent on the field...but they certainly proved that when in the media spotlight their teams could not count on them projecting the...

NFL teams have gone committee...but I'd still rank the Vikings running backs ahead of the Cowboys. Adrian Petersen Toby Gerhart vs. Felix Jones Marion Barber III Tashard Choice Who would you take? Clinton Portis Larry Johnson Willie Parker vs. Frank Gore Glenn Coffee

You don't want to see Iowa play on a big stage and hang in there with maybe the best college football team in a decade and have chances to be leading the game at halftime? Why...because we ended up getting beat? Maybe we should just leave the Big Ten and go independent and just play...

Why do we always have to be complainers? People complained last year that GT was so much closer to Miami than we were and that it gave them an unfair advantage...and we're not used to warm weather in January...and it's going to be past our player's bedtime when we play Arizona...and we...
