    SIAP What is your fave KF bowl game??

    As I think about my favorite bowl games, I'm thinking about the entire gameday experience, not just the outcome. Cap One was awesome, obviously, and the Rose Bowl is something to experience. I also liked the Alamo Bowl, but am not that crazy about the Outback. Without a doubt, though, my...

    If Gary Dolphin retires, who replaces him?

    Too funny. We have a winner!

    Spotted Tiger Hawk in a movie

    There is currently a commercial in heavy rotation (for ATT I believe) which shows an Iowa DB getting beat for a touchdown. What makes it worse is that it is to Purdue. Apparently someone from OMHR is in advertising. They say all publicity is good publicity, but in this case, I have to disagree!

    Rate Your Best Iowa Bowl Trip

    1. Capital One Bowl. Tate to Holloway. Need I say more? OK, Matt Roth has two words for LSU. 2. Orange Bowl vs. USC. Even though we lost, that was an awesome experience. The day long event leading up to the game was awesome. I still like "Tusk" even though I was seated right above the...

    Juan Harris De-Commits from Iowa

    I see Lape as a possible non-P5 player, but would hate to see Iowa waste a scholarship on him. For all of his faults, Harris has far more upside than Lape, although Lape is more valuable to his team at this point. FWIW, I have been told by kids who played against him last year that Lape is a...

    Juan Harris De-Commits from Iowa

    It's long past time for Iowa to move on. I've seen Harris play in person twice, and he is a "project" at best in my estimation. My only concern is that he doesn't fall on my son, who may be lined up across from him this fall!

    Cowherd rakes KF

    Well, it's pretty clear that Kirk got under his skin. I'd much rather have Cowherd against us than for us. Knowing that he is irate about being called out by Kirk for not having his facts straight makes this ride all that much sweeter! Thanks Colin, you made my day even brighter.

    So you think Lon broke his leg v. UCLA, look at Photo/caption

    The caption is wrong. It happened against UCLA.

    Where were you when "The Catch" happened

    I was at the game with my wife, in the second to last row of the end zone opposite where Holloway scored. Coming after the incredible low of how our clock mismanagement appeared to cost us the game, the high of "the catch" was my most memorable moment as a Hawk fan. Watching from behind the...

    Rudock is Gone

    As I recall, CJB (or his father) hinted before the bowl game that he might transfer if things didn't start going his way. The threat worked. Ferentz took the unusual step of naming him the starter for next fall in January. I'm not judging what CJB (or his father) did, and I'll be in the...

    Rudock is Gone

    Hardly. Two UI degrees and 23 years as a football season ticket holder. What does it say about the state of the fan base that anyone who supports one of our true student athletes is branded as a Cyclone? I hope some people feel badly for the way they have treated Jake Ruddock. There's no...

    Rudock is Gone

    This is a sad day if true. A portion of our fan base ran off a capable quarterback and an outstanding representative for the program. I predict everybody who was clamoring for CJB last year will miss JR by the end of next season. I wish him nothing but the best (unless it comes at the expense...

    Hampton Facebook post

    Hey Jewel, just think of what a great feeling it will be when you rattle of back to back 1,000 yard seasons, play in two great bowl games, and make 1st team All Big Ten! It'll be all that much more sweeter for what you'll have done to get there!

    Who do the Hawks want to to win; Mich or Mich State?

    I'm cheering for Michigan. I want them to be overconfident, not coming off a loss. Added hype for Michigan = added hype when we go up there and knock them off. Also, we need to get a loss or two on MSU. Michigan will drop a few later on.

    Music In Kinnick Stadium

    To me, the intro music is one of the best parts of the game. I completely agree, however, that there has come to be a little too much of a good thing lately. It's just stupid to shout down the crowd or the band, and I too noticed that the music didn't get cut off in time on a few occasions...
