No Hawk fans in my family who are older than me. I don't know how I got started, but I remember listening to BBall and FBall games on the radio by myself. Lute Olsen, Hayden Fry, Vivian Stringer and Dan Gable all had quality teams for many yrs and I was hooked. I have been a passionate Hawk...

I've noticed him on special teams as well. He will step into the two deeps on D next yr and do very well.

They have been this way for quite awhile now. I hate watching them play. I hope Iowa beats them again.

I refuse to believe Iowa is ISU's super bowl. It was by far their best performance of the yr however and I would think ISU fans would agree. The B12 is very good. Iowa is pretty average this yr, but not bad. What's frustrating for me is that ISU is not even competetive in the B12 this...

"We stopped ourselves with turnovers and some self inflicted wounds." Maybe Fitz in on to something here that could explain his 36-33 (18-24) record.

I would like to complain about the wind all afternoon. We had to put the sides on our Hawkeye tailgating tent and we had to get out the stakes and ropes to tie the darn thing down. Oh, well. Still had a great time eating, talking, and playing bean bag toss.

Hmm. This is our 13th season with season tickets. Received no such email either. And I have two email accounts.

This sounds pretty reasonable to me. I will say this, if you go back 10 yrs Iowa has 85 wins and 41 losses. An average of 8.5 wins and 4.1 losses per yr. Iowa won 10 games twice and 11 games twice during this span. There were only two seasons Iowa won only 6 games. During the 10 yrs Iowa has...

No one in this thread said they only expect 6 wins every yr. How many wins should Iowa have every yr? What would satisfy your expectations?

I like the old rule better. I think the new rule should be a taunting/celebration combo that can be called either way. If it happens before or during the td, it's a 20 yard penalty enforced after the next kickoff has been played, and the td should still count. If it happens after the play is...

Wow this is great! I will be making some serious money over the next 4 weeks. Thanks bus.

It's another one of those darn false mirages.

Hindsight is always 20/20. The program was still feeling it's way in 01. That was not one of NP's better defenses. I understand you are upset with last yr. You do have a point there. 2010 bothers me much more than 01 did.

Man, you are really reaching now. First of all Iowa won at Indiana last yr. How in the world you can put 12-1 OSU and 11-2 Wiscy in the "who we lost to" category is beyond me. I'm not bitter about those two losses at all. Two very good teams. NW and AZ were good enough last yr to beat Iowa (or...

I don't get why some of us Hawk fans say 01 was a huge disappoinment. No one, and I mean no one expected that Iowa team to win 9 or 10 games. But they almost did. Yes, they could gave won more games as the O was pretty good. However the D struggled that yr and the O was a turnover machine...

"Has never made it to a Rose Bowl" It's funny how naysayer Hawk fans like to bring this up, conveniently forgetting about the two Orange Bowls. Getting to the Rose Bowl isn't what it once was. It's now just part of the BCS Series. KF qualified for the 03 Rose, but the Orange picked Iowa first.

(99-01) 11-24 Rebuilding span. Paid off in the next 3 yrs. (02-04) 31-7 Man that was fun! 3 #8 finishes. 2 Jan bowl wins. (05-07) 19-18 Painfully mediocre. (08-10) 28-11. A few too many close losses but not all that bad. Three bowl wins. A #7 finish and a #20 finish. (11-13) Who...

The offense was so bad with two fricking weeks to prepare for the game. Kudos to the D, which once again, played well enough for Iowa to be able to win the game.

I agree with you 90%. Unfortunately, this is commonplace during the KF era. I'm almost afraid to watch the second half. However, I am not ashamed to be a Hawk fan.

That was classic KF. We've seen it a hundred times. Run the clock out and bank two time outs while making a conservative attempt to move the ball hoping something breaks open. Looks like Mr. Conservative has resurfaced. I don't see Iowa winning this game if they are going to coach to not...
