It appears it could be very windy on Saturday. Could affect the game some, definitely would affect the tailgating. If the wind isnt outrageous, I see Iowa getting some passing rhythm going this week, partly out of necessity. Last year after scoring 13 in the MSU game, we put 45 on Indiana...

Yes, you are a pessimist. 9-3 or 10-2?? We lose at home to two of these three: IN, NW, MN?? Decker is out for the year for MN, no way we lose this game no matter what happens. IN has given up twice the points we have and scored the same amount we have. Our defense is still in tact for those out...

I'd love for them to muster up an inspired win for the seniors, but just dont see them doing it. Maybe the Zooker can inspire them with one of his recruiting talks.

Its partly on the fans at the game to help keep the intensity up. The team feeds off of the fans energy. Do your part and show up and be loud every time on defense! If Iowa jumps out ahead, the fans need to stay loud and not put it on cruise control, as the team can feed off of that too.

I think either way if we beat OSU we cant lose. If OSU loses to PSU, our win against PSU just keeps getting better and it really helps our chances to win the Big 10. If OSU beats PSU and then we go beat OSU, the voters might think a little more of us in that respect, but more importantly we will...

Ah yes, 5 posts on the site total, 3 are negative on this thread. Screename says to fire the OC on an undefeated team, 9-4 last year. But yeah, Im sure you arent a troll.

I think we might fall in the next two weeks even if we win because our opponents the next two weeks arent as strong as they have been and could lower our SOS (unless Arizona, PSU and ISU keep winning, even Ark St can help us by winning). However, if someone loses ahead of us, then our opponents...

Right now this is not an issue to worry about. Its a luxury to play your backups, but usually not a reality at this time in the season. Its all about playing the players that give you the best chance to win right now.

I was watching College Football Live just now. Jesse Palmer (not an "expert" anyway in my opinion) says that Iowa only beat a 4-4 team on the road with a last second field goal. He failed to mention how the #2 Alabama Crimson Tide needed to block a last second field goal against a 3-4 team at...

Thats what Im talking about!!

Thats boring.

I had thought about this a little bit today and compared his stats to Colt McCoy's. McCoy is third on espn.com, and has only played 6 games. But he already has several INT's this year as well, doesnt have the rushing yards he has in the past, and has about equal yards and TD's to Ricky. Now he...

We actually went into the PSU game off our loss to Illinois. But back to the point, I actually like that we are not seen as world beaters as I think this will keep the team grounded and focused more on the games and less on the rankings. It makes me feel like since there are still doubters...

If we had done that, its possible the ISU game would have been different and/or the PSU game. I would rather take criticism for barely beating two teams than have us blow them out and lose to ISU or PSU and have no one talking about us at all.

Our opponents have scored 1st 4 times this year. This method also works this year because we start with our strong defense in the second half and if they do their job and stop our opponents drive quickly, we have a chance to get decent field position for our first possession in the second...

I know these boards have been lighting up lately about each game is just as important as the next and they all have been the biggest game of the year and I agree with that to a point. But this road game against a second place Big 10 team (Michigan State) could: 1) keep us undefeated (nice) 2)...

I would go with the whole team. There have been points in each game where different areas of the team picked up everyone else. Kind of like the Patriots Super Bowl team when they played the Rams. This team needs to stick together and keep chugging along.

He played later in the game in the 4th Qtr. I believe it was the 4th down rollout by Stanzi where Kirk smiled after the play.
