    TV Ratings Question

    I watched sportscenter from 5-6pm CST last night before the game and there was not one mention that I saw of the Orange Bowl being played in an hour. ESPN was able to mention they were airing the GMAC bowl on the 6th though, and they talked about the national championship game a couple of...

    Erin Andrews Stalker...

    Not excusing Donte's actions either, but did anyone see the street this guy was running across. Its almost like a freeway and has cement barriers on both sides and in the middle. Its not exactly made to cross for a pedestrian.

    What I'm hearing on transfers

    So its Lickliter's fault Mr. Davis was fired? I think that might have been the start of all of this. Iowa basketball = Iowa State football, anyone? Get greedy with some success, then go crazy with a couple of "down" years. Anyone know who was upset with not winning enough NCAA tournament games...

    Big 10 Announcement Today--Looking to Expand to 12 Teams

    Would picking up Rutgers help or hurt our ability to recruit in NJ? Also, I dont know why Notre Dame wouldnt join with all the reasons Jon gave us yesterday in his deleted article. Their revenue doesnt appear to really be in danger of dropping if they join due to the Big 10's TV agreements...

    No hawks on AP All American Team

    I dont have any problem with not having any AP All-Americans. Iowa's style is to play team defense. No one is going to really have to stand out if everyone does their job. Our stats arent trememdous because the team plays well together. Our offense wasnt anything to brag about, and is why we...

    BCS stands for....

    I think it will be easier for the crowd to be into this game early due to the fact that if Iowa wins this game, we will be 10-0. The difference between 9-0 and 10-0 is a huge one. Once you are in double digit wins and still undefeated, you know you are close to finishing a perfect year. At 8-0...

    Spikes suspended

    I cant imagine what it would be like to have someone attacking you to try and gouge you like that. You can see the Georgia player trying to get him away. On ESPN, Mike Golic and Merill Hodge think it is extremely dirty and Golic went on to say its worse than the Blount punch. However, there...

    NC game has already been determined

    We as Hawk fans of all people should know nothing is ever determined until its over. Didnt we just learn this the last two weeks?? From what I can see, Florida, Alabama and Texas still have games to play, as does Iowa. Nothing is over until its over.

    possibly unpopular: discussion about the fans

    I guess some of you are just really positive people, no matter what. I didnt boo during the game, but if you are going to sit here and tell people how great you were and how you werent at all upset about the performance during the game, then congratulations to you. I only yelled one thing at...

    Wins vs BCS Top 25

    I see a PSU beatdown of OSU coming unfortunately, as far having 4 teams we beat in the top 25. However, even if we beat OSU when they are 7-3, the computers will still like that and keep liking us, even if the voters arent as impressed. Plus if we are 11-0, the odds of there still being seven...

    Kafka injury situation?

    I'd rather have him play, because if he is out then we might relax and think this one is in the bag and then their backup comes in and catches us off guard.

    Instant Replay and the Refs moving the ball before announcement

    Yeah this game was so long my DVR stopped recording right after DJK's touchdown (as I forgot to extend the recording time). I'll have to wait to see the end again when it is replayed on the BTN.

    Polls 11/1

    The only way I would want Ohio State to beat PSU is if I knew for sure Iowa would beat OSU in the shoe. As it is since that cannot be guaranteed, I want PSU to beat OSU in a close game to give us some breathing room. That could also possibly lead to a home crowd let down in Columbus when we play...

    Oregon is taking it to USC!!!!

    Oregon is a good team and I can definitely see them passing us. I can also see them being put right behind us since they arent a huge "name school" like USC is, plus they have a loss. They'd be tough in the Rose Bowl. Who knows though, maybe Arizona will give them a good game.

    ESPN crawl for Iowa game ridiculous

    So you dont like when they tell the truth? We were behind by 10 and 14. I dont think they slammed Iowa, like someone else said, they called us Comeback Kids. We got a ton of pub today. Plus we didnt win a close game, we still blew them out for the final score which the majority of the pollsters...

    Jon Miller on KXNO for those attending game

    That's what I have been saying. Who we are playing at home is irrelevant at this point, as only wins matter now. They team wont have any problem getting up for the OSU game, as its OSU. The crowd at Kinnick needs to act as though we are playing OSU every game and keep that type of enthusiasm...

    Superstitions

    I like to call them routines, superstitions are false. Nothing we do can make the team play any differently, except for yelling loud at home games and being supportive. That is all.

    a few observations on the last play

    I like your take better. Plus I saw on Iowa Football w/ Kirk Ferentz when McNutt came in the locker room and hugged Ricky, DJK was right there hugging people too and messing with Moeaki.

    What if Iowa was #4 in the human polls?

    It depends on the number of votes that team is receiving. Texas is barely out of second place in both the Harris and Coaches Polls. Thats how the percentage points are distributed for the human polls, not solely off what your ranking is.
