He also had 74 yards on the road last year against OSU, 2 weeks after a high ankle sprain. The kid is special. I don't think he'll duplicate last week's performance, but it's possible and here's why: ARob rarely gets driven backwards. When he takes a hit, he's typically moving hard enough to...

The real punchline here is that Adam Rittenberg, McShay's coworker, mentioned the record in the first sentence of his "game sticker" for DJK.

I disagree. He's not an utterly boring QB on an utterly boring Iowa team, he's a top-3 QB on a defensively-led Iowa team. If we're looking for excitement, Stanzi delivers. He's clutch in the 4th and has developed a really nice touch on the deep balls. His pass to DJK in the back of the end...

I doubt we see him much, if at all. He's had more than one concussion and his spot on the depth chart has been taken by Coker, and probably Rogers as well. If we see him at all it'll be on ST and KF has said recently they probably won't play him there anymore on account of his head injuries...

We'll win by executing our plays and not allowing the big play from Michigan. Our D is significantly better than any they've played so far and our O is at least as good as MSUs, maybe a bit better. We'll take away the run and force Denard to try to beat us over the top. 42-21 Hawks.

When I first saw the Morris interview from summer camp, I knew he was going to be a special player. He said all the right things about staying humble, working hard, listening to the coaches and older players, etc. He's a really bright kid and a hell of a hard worker from what I've heard. I...

That was also mentioned in this thread. The post starts off talking about how the media will be all about Denard before the game and all about Ricky after.

Unfortunately, the only thing I'll be able to remember at that point is that instead of talking about Historic Kinnick Stadium, the announcers would rather talk about a random corn field 45 minutes away from campus...

They have a point about Cal, that's a fairly heated rivalry. But the Stanford thing is just stupid. Where can I get a look at the proposed divisions? My whole family for 3 generations went to USC except me, and I like to talk PAC-10 with my big brother.

You see the same thing with the NHL. Now that the NHL plays on Versus instead of ESPN, they receive significantly less coverage.

I don't think it's so much that they hate the BTN and are downplaying the conference out of spite, but I DO think that their recent acquisition of SEC games compells the network to lean more toward the SEC. They spent a ton of money for the ability to broadcast SEC games, and I think they want...

I think it's ridiculous that we don't have a playoff. There are playoffs for just about every other sport (except the racing events like track and swimming, plus the judged events like gymnastics), and there are playoffs at every level of football from Pop Warner through the pros. There's even...

I was on TV after that game! When I got back to Rienow (this was my freshman year) I had like 80 texts and voice messages that people saw me in the aftermath on the field after the game. This was before DVR so I never got to see it myself, but I hope they show that part after the game!

Maybe I'm missing something but I don't see what's so wrong about what they wrote. Iowa has been dominant against inferior opponents, and we don't know how good we are yet (especially since PSU and AZ both lost at home last Saturday). Also, Denard did run well on us last year. 49 rush yards...

They may want to close the corners completely if they do a new renovation. I don't really mind the semi-open corners, but if they were going to change anything, that would be my first bet.

If they blitz, it'll leave an already-embarrassing defensive secondary one man short. Frankly, I hope they blitz all night and we're able to pick apart the secondary.

KF has said that they want to get Coker out there more this week. They use the bye week to let the older guys heal up and get the younger guys some reps, so I expect him to come into this game having taken a lot more practice snaps this week than previously. My concern is that if we only play...

This. Michigan's offense is not in any way built for sustained drives. They're built for the home run, not small ball. If we can get them to 3rd and 5+, they'll be in major trouble. If it happens late in the game and they're down a few points, expect Denard to be airmailing some gifts to our...

The betting line has nothing to do with who will win the game. It's designed to approximate equal betting on both sides. FYI, when the early line came out last week before the MSU game, we were 3 point underdogs. Also, the standard in a pick 'em game is to give the home team 3 points...

Watching their game on TV today, the place seemed like a library. Every other game sounded significantly louder. My room mate is a drummer who used to march and when they had a closeup on one of the drummers he was blown away that you could hear the sticks click against each other. This was...
