    Polls 11/1

    BTW, we also leapfrogged Cincinnati in the coaches' poll, though they did gain a few votes.

    Polls 11/1

    USC dropped from 4 to 13 in the coaches' poll. Now, Iowa's points percentage with the coaches is now .787, which is up .0508 from last week. Meanwhile, Texas is .9457, which is only an increase of .0034. Alabama, who was idle last week, lost .0061 percentage points in the coaches' poll. We're...

    Iowa National Title Hopes Take Beating Tonight

    You know, the four losses by the Hawks last year were by a combined 12 points, iirc. They've won all their games this year by a combined 89 points, less than 10 points per game. It seems we're now winning the games we lost last year.

    Someone call The Vatican...

    I don't know if it's God or the saints having anything to do with how the Hawks do, but maybe it's karma or the fates finally smiling on the Black and Gold. I thought that the game was over when Stanzi couldn't find anyone wearing black in the third quarter. But then again, football has a crazy...

    BCS question

    Let's see what the BCS expert says during College Football Final tonight. Why in the heck should Iowa be hurt when they WIN?

    Best & Worst of the Big Ten Week Nine

    I just love your new nickname for the team: Shawkeyes. I guess we have a new meaning for the term "shock and awe."

    I think Oregon would smoke us...

    I think the Hawks can outscheme the Ducks in the Rose Bowl (if we do face them there). Capt. Kirk, KOK and Norm will find ways to keep the Ducks in check. They may win, but not the way they throttled USC. Though I do think the Hawks can beat Oregon like they have against almost everyone else in...

    Iowa National Title Hopes Take Beating Tonight

    Oregon just made USC look overrated at No. 5 in the BCS. I think we're underrated in the human polls (all three of them). I still think the computers will make us No. 1, unanimously.

    Doyel rips Big Ten officials/Iowa

    The Ducks just helped us out a little, with eliminating USC from BCS consideration.

    Oregon is taking it to USC!!!!

    Or, if both SEC teams and Texas all lose at least once, Oregon and Iowa might sneak into the title game.

    ESPN crawl for Iowa game ridiculous

    9-0 is the most important thing right now. I don't care if we are 4-0 after trailing after the end of three quarters. Just win baby, as Al Davis once said.

    Can we pass Texas??

    The Hawks may not need now to pass Texas. Texas could jump to the two spot, and if LSU can beat Alabama, we'd be three. That'd mean we'd need Florida to lose (or Texas to A&M on Thanksgiving night) sometime to get us into the big game (provide we beat Northwestern, Ohio State and Minnesota).

    Oregon is taking it to USC!!!!

    Maybe this will shut up Colin Cowherd about how USC is better than Iowa. Iowa was able to come back from a 21-7 and 24-14 deficit to win. It's one thing to beat teams you're supposed to beat. It's another to actually win games. Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing, as the great Vince...

    One thing I liked about this game vs the MSU game

    Turnovers both won it for us and could have cost us dearly!

    Now the BIG game is next week

    IU also had our number before the fourth quarter of today's game. They had beaten us two of the last three.

    send GOOD vibes to Okla St.

    Jon: Don't be such a debbie downer on that regard. There have been times when the Big XII South champion had laid an egg in the Big XII championship game to the North champion. K State or KU might be able to bit them in the butt. Okie State can still come back, too.

    Is this the first week we can forget the TUMS?

    Pick six, two quick strikes, and two Wegher TDs gives Iowa the 42-24 win today. Someone hand me a Zantac, some Pepsid AC, Pepto, Rolaids, Gaviscon, Kaopectate and every other stomach remedy you can think of.

    Of the 17 major stat categories in the Big Ten, guess how many Iowa leads?

    Actually, four have us No. 1, one has us No. 2, and one has us No. 4. They threw out one of the No. 1s and the No. 4, and we have an average place of 1.25 and 99 points.

    Prediction

    Georgia couldn't get the job done against Florida. I guess they may've need that kid who has himself painted white and talked intensely on SportsNation. Meanwhile, Oregon, as of 8:30 p.m., leads USC, 17-10, with 4:19 left in the first half, and Texas leads Okie State, 17-7, also late in the...
