    Game Preview, Prediction: N. Texas Air-Raid Offense Good Test for Hawkeye D

    If every down is a passing down w/ their offense do you think we see more AJ?

    Iowa Alt Uniforms

    My thoughts exactly. The blackout looks marvelous for night games. Hawks are usually victorious during the night blackouts, Michigan, Minnesota, Michigan. Ohio State doesn't start with an "M" but I think I would let them join that club.

    Did Jon and Rob Quit?

    The football page is the one not getting the new stories and posts. The main page is up to date. The football page looks like it is stuck on Friday.

    Please disect the Dee's 28 point collapse

    At the player level tackling was poor, mostly due to having bad position in respect to the direction the ball carrier was taking and then the defenders were not driving through to complete their tackles. Strategically Parker should have gone nickel a little sooner as the hurry up tempo wasn't...

    Lipstick on a pig

    My guess is ISU gives OU a run for their money in Norman. Probably a 10 point game like last year. Urban will be out next year. Loosing to Iowa, OU and Penn State in the same season will do it.

    Lipstick on a pig

    Oklahoma is shredding tOSU at the beginning of the 4th. Will be interesting to see how the 'Clones run against the Sooners in early October.

    Guys I need your help with QBs and RBs

    Hard to know w/o knowing how many offensive plays are going to be run. The question you didn't ask there is pretty important - What is the split going to be between run and pass? I like percentages so Wadley should be @ 55%, Butler gets 30%, Stanley should be @ 10% and Young gets around 5%...

    GAME BALL

    At first I was thinking Jackson but then reflecting about the very pivotal play where he forced the intentional grounding penalty on Allen it became obvious for me too. And that play isn't even reflected in those stats!

    Is Manny our top corner??

    Well according to Podolak the NFL scouts seem to think that Ben Niemann is our best prospect at cornerback. Seems like most of the Iowa corners that end up in the NFL play safety so why not?

    B1G Games This weekend

    And now tOSU has scored twice in 3 minutes. Up 14. IU's defense can't keep up.

    B1G Games This weekend

    tOSU abused IU on the ground and took the lead. The Hoosiers then went hurry up and regained the lead after their first two 2nd half drives were 3 and outs.

    B1G Games This weekend

    Buckeyes turn the ball over on downs. Had two dropped passes on that drive, one in the endzone. Hoosier D has shown up for now. If TJB's receivers start catching balls they can pull it out. Indiana just looks better prepared.

    B1G Games This weekend

    Hoosiers take the lead into the locker room @ the half. Iowa vs. Indiana in the CFG??? tOSU looks like a bunch of guys who think they are entitled. Would love to be a fly on the wall in the Buckeye locker room right about now to watch Urban have a complete meltdown....

    QB question

    That is attributable to the "phase" issue. I think it comes down to not being able to recruit entire classes of 4 and 5 star players. The thing is that many of the highly ranked players in CFB have reached their peak and are ready to play when they arrive @ college. Some of them continue to...

    QB question

    I have posted about this before. The Ferentz era QBs have the most wins in the year they earn the starting position outright. There are a variety of reasons and scenarios that land a QB w/ the start from the git go be it a previous year's QB competition, graduation, transfers, injuries etc...

    Wyoming QB Quotes

    He should know by now that Iowa is known as a wrestling school. He should expect to find himself introduced to the full Nelson.

    Prescott Az game watch locations

    You would think there would be a preferred spot considering all of the Hawkeyes one runs into around the area. The 9 am kickoff time is sort of a damper on those sort of activities. You are looking for a "sports brunch" type of place (I don't think the Waffle Iron has TVs).

    You can thank me later

    Don't despair T. I had to wait 38 years after the rain out in Idaho in 1979. I was a senior in high school and my experience then was much like yours - total overcast, rain and snow and then it got dark as night for a minute. The streetlights came on and then off and back to gray again. Pretty...

    No off position on the genius switch

    Trust me - BF will get a lot of heat for the play calling if the offense goes flat or isn't productive and I said so in my full season prediction in another thread. Stanley, and the QB position as a whole, has the least amount of experience in the entire offense. There are two proven pieces @...
