    Just watched the 60 minute Iowa Northwestern game Thoughts

    My God how does an offense get this bad? 1. BF and KF offensive schemes have to be the top reason. I remember wen Joe Tiller went to Purdue and with his offense and the same players changed Purdue in one year Offensive schemes 2. Talent Offensive line and wide receiver are not good, but I...

    Weeks without watching Iowa Football

    Bye this week and no way am I going to watch Northwestern on Peacock. Probably will listen to Dolph and Eddie. More entertaining than watching as you never know whats happening!

    How does this Nightmare End?

    One loss and the dogs are out and letting loose with the UGLY truth. I saw a "soundoff" on Des Moines channel 13 that really pounded how bad we are and how bad our QB is Many other media sources with like stories We are going to lose more games regardless of who plays QB but D Hill cannot be...

    The Conundrum that is Iowa Football

    6-1 In first place with a good chance to win the West probably rated with the worst offense in the nation and the worst QB since Bobby Cummings in the 70s. 27-70 311 yards with a 38% completion and 2 TDs with 2 Ints. Rating of 79 Great defense that makes big plays and the best overall kicking...

    Some thoughts on Yesterday

    Really enjoyed the day as it was a festive crowd and decent weather. But as many fans sitting near me were heard to say "Iowa is painful to watch" Iowa is 5-1 and won't be ranked and doesn't deserve to be ranked Hill is not a good QB! No touch and accuracy is a big problem. Not the answer but...

    Preview, Prediction: Iowa-Purdue

    Well the "experts" say Purdue has advantage on Offense and we have it on Defense, Kicking and Special teams. No surprises there so what are the keys? Iowa defense has to be more aggressive. We have been good but not dominant. Still cant believe we have 0 sacks against power 5 teams. Has to...

    Give Brian Ferentz some Credit

    No not as an offensive coordinator. A job that cannot be his next year. But after reading yet another article about how the crowd on Saturday night was loud and supportive when Iowa was on defense and chanting Fire Brian when on offense (on national TV) you have to give Brian some credit for...

    How Bad is Iowa?

    Northwestern up on Penn State near halftime 10-3. OK maybe Penn State has a letdown but still???? Iowa has one of the worst offenses in the country and the worst offensive line I have seen at Iowa since FXL days. Defense has been good but not dominate and has not made many big plays...

    Can Either Ferentz Survive This?

    WOW What an avalanche of scathing articles on Iowa football and both Kirk and Brian Ferentz. His post game after Penn State with his "keep pushing forward" explanation of what needs to be done just isn't convincing anyone that there is an answer. Always liked the guy and has done some very good...

    Some National Statistics For Kirk to Consider

    Iowa 129 out of 130 in total offense 2 yards ahead of Eastern Michigan and really against one very good team and 3 less than mediocre McNamara 116 out of 124 in passing efficiency 119 out of 124 in completions per game and 120 in completion % Crazy bad offensive line ain't helping but he...

    Tadjo a Hawk

    Ratings are "overrated" but I would guess 247 is closer. I cant imagine the 66th best player and 4 star being offered by only Iowa and Akron?

    Tadjo a Hawk

    Out of NBA Academy Latin America?? 247 doesn't rate him Beat Akron for him

    Game Plan

    With our 2 top threats out at RB and our go to guy Lachey out it seems unlikely we will have much of an offense. I would guess less than 200 total yards and scoring will be tough especially if they get expected rain. So I think any chance we have comes down to the turnover battle and maybe...

    The Good The Bad The Ugly

    The Good any win over the Clones is GOOD! Big plays Pick 6 (difference in the game) Blocked punt and a big run on 3rd and short. No injuries that I saw The Bad 112 yards rushing If you take the 59 yard run out that's 53 yards. 123 yards passing I think less than 50% where are the wide...

    88 Yards rushing "Didn't Know what to Plan for?

    Sort of the response from Ferentz when questioned about the running game. Saw the same response from Kakert on an interview assuming he was referencing Ferentz response. Are you buying that? A team that likely will struggle comes in with a ton of new players and coaches and that is the reason we...
