    Fact last time Iowa beat Northwestern they also lost to Penn St and Iowa St

    Please don't compare this team to 2007 ... that squad was awful, just awful. Still have no clue how they beat Michigan State or Northwestern. Albert Young was better than Coker ... but that offensive line was much worse than this year's. That team had no good WRs thanks to Dominique...

    I hate losses too, but....

    Losses are awful, and I hope the coaching staff and players treats this game as an learning opportunity. Their was plenty of poor execution and planning yesterday. That being said, this year was going to be frustrating not just because it's a rebuilding year, but because it's a year where...

    Loss hurts but i thought they would be 3-2

    Every game on the schedule could be a win or a loss. Outside of Wisconsin,the Big Ten is very mediocre this year, just like the Hawks. So we lost to ISU and PSU--if we beat NW and one of the Michigans, it's even in my book.

    Last week when Gameday was at Wisconsin, a Nebraska fan was holding a sign that said, "Everyone here hates Iowa" ...

    Is Penn State a rivalry game?

    Iowa vs OSU 2009 on BTN

    I remember after OSU lost to Purdue, I thought we would win this game, and even if we didn't, I expected Penn State to beat OSU the week before we played them anyway. Then came a revitalized OSU team, a heartbreaking loss for the Hawks vs. Northwestern, and a mountain of injuries ... Still, I...

    Iowa 3.5 point underdog to PSU

    Eh, on paper these are honestly two pretty evenly matched teams (maybe a slight edge toward Iowa), and we're on the road. Penn State seems to need this win more than we do (next week's is bigger, IMO, partly because NW is a division opponent and partly because they've had our number the past...

    Excellent article by Rittenberg on O$U problems!

    I was at the Michigan State game on Saturday ... definitely an unsettled mood among Buckeye fans right now. Here's a great article by the Columbus Dispatch's Bob Hunter, who places the blame for the team's tumultuous season exactly where it belongs: with Tressel and the five suspended players...

    Herbstreit picks Ohio State over Iowa in B1G Title game

    Idk ... OSU is in the weaker division (Legends? Leaders?), and they do have Wiscy at home. I'm not convinced that Wisconsin will be a world-beater--they lost two All-American linemen, a great tight end, and possibly the big ten's best defensive player from a year ago (Watt). I think OSU wins...

    Shonn Greene.............

    I'm only 21, so I hear you guys ... my first Hawkeye game in Kinnick was Western Michigan in 2000. Ugh ... Been there for both Western Michigan losses too. But my first great Hawkeye memory was the upset over Penn State in 2000. Just remember how excited my dad was and I knew the Hawks were...

    if you could get one former Hawk back for one game in Kinnick

    I was around eight when Tim Dwight was making most of those highlights, so this video was really the first time I've ever seen them ... and they were awesome, just awesome. How long has it been since Iowa's had a player that can make Michigan's and Ohio State's defenses look slow? After...

    Article on Coker

    Love McNutt running ahead to try to throw a block in that video too.

    Very good Vandenberg article

    Good for James. Is anyone else really excited to have an IOWAN back at the helm? There just seems to be something special about having an Iowan (and lifetime Hawkeye fan) as the starting QB and one of the team's leaders.

    Another Option for Pryor?

    Just a thought here about Terrelle Pryor ... Could he go play basketball somewhere? I know he was a stud player in high school with quite a few offers, so I imagine he could still play at the college level. I don't know about his eligibility (both from the transfer standpoint and from the...
