    Should The BIG Network Pipe In Noise And Fans In Broadcasted Games?

    Absolutely. You're going to have to put someone up there to turn up the volume on 3rd down when the home team in on D and get the boing tracked up when the visitors score a TD. Have fun with it but as I said in a prior post there has to be volume limits put in place that are followed.

    '18 Athletic Department Study Showed Serious Racial Bias in Iowa Football

    Have you ever tried The Athletic? There are some opinion pieces by Dochterman but for the most part things are kept to Iowa sports. Not a lot of political angles in the Iowa stories. I think that might be a better fit for you than this site or and particularly the message board.

    10-game conference only 2020 schedule idea

    Maybe the B1G could let Green Bay host the game if there is a spring season and Lucas Oil is unavailable? Outside of that this a bad idea.

    Should The BIG Network Pipe In Noise And Fans In Broadcasted Games?

    I'm okay with PA systems pumping in some crowd noise. The Minnesota Vikings did back in the Metronome era so its not unheard of even with fans in the stands. But I do think the ADs need to get together and decide the noise level limits and make sure their being followed. I think its good for...

    Howe: Five Iowa Football Players Poised for All-B1G Campaigns

    ISM and Smith might be the best top 2 WR Iowa has had in some time. That is debatable. But as a top 4 I think they're the best group. I can't remember Iowa have a better rotation. Particularly excited with the possibility of watching teams 3rd and 4th cover guys guarding proven B1G players in...

    Howe: Five Iowa Football Players Poised for All-B1G Campaigns

    ISM probably has a better shot because he's more dynamic but Brandon Smith is a serious difference-maker for this team. He made that very clear in the bowl game on 3rd downs.

    Iowa Football Almost Classic

    I'm sure he felt the truck. Best part was there was little booing for a flag. Everyone knew it was legit penalty and everyone didn't care.

    Iowa Football Almost Classic

    That was one of the few sporting events in which I was legit afraid for people's safety. As others have mentioned of this game, many fans just looked bad and were severely affected by the heat. Until then I always felt the 1996 opener vs Arizona was the worst. I don't even think it was the...

    Iowa Football Almost Classic

    That 1991 Rose Bowl was one of times in which I felt Iowa was truly outmatched. Washington's speed overwhelmed them. It only ended up being a 12 point margin but Iowa was down 39-14 in the 4th quarter when Washington called off the dogs. I think you could have every game from the 1988 season...

    HN TV: Kirk Ferentz Talks About COVID, Season, Program Progress

    Tell your 18 year old how the wearing your pants down fad originated. It worked for my brother and his son.

    Yeah a pass breakup on 4th down. He could have caught it easily but smartly batted the ball to the turf.

    I'm curious because I've never been on HR forums, how would you describe the overall tone over there compared to here?

    Iowa Football Investigation Discussion

    Normally I would be completely against this but it this is a very unique case. And maybe the only way to really move past this is to get input from the current roster and past players. I will give KF credit for hiring black assistants at position spots (Iowa has twice as many as Wisconsin &...

    Iowa Athletics COVID-19 Discussion

    I think best case scenario is a March to mid-June season. If that actually happens and the NFL doesn't budge on its combine/draft dates, what current Iowa players do you think will skip out on the spring 2021 season and focus on the draft?

    Last 10 B1G PoY winners

    Just taking a quick look, outside of the Michigan guys and Swanigan everyone else on that list was a JR or SR when they won the award. None of them were FR when they won the award. In this era of college basketball, being in college past your FR season is not a good sign for your pro...

    Slightly OT - what is everyone doing for the 4th of July

    I too will be celebrating the evil American holiday known as the 4th of July. Who knows how many more years we'll be able to celebrate it? Boating on St Croix River. Drinks, food, and fireworks afterward on beach near Hudson, Wisconsin.
