    Iowa Football Preview, Prediction: Nemesis Northwestern Up Next

    It wouldn’t surprise me if Iowa hits on all cylinders and cruises to victory and HN is all a buzz about the offense and KF/BF finally getting it figured out then Iowa scores only 3 points to WI, and loses to IL and we’re right back to where we are now of course it’s more likely we win a 9-6...

    Howe's Friday 5: Offensive Woes, Oliver Martin, Hoops Recruiting

    The only progress I want to see out of BF is to get Iowa's record back up to .500 against ranked teams and Big10 teams with a winning record. So far under his time leading the offense, Iowa is beyond bad. And it is the offense's fault when we don't seem to break 20ppg against these teams. The...

    I have a feeling...

    I don't think either team breaks 20 points. NW offense is even worse than Iowa.

    Iowa will make it easy for them, they just have to cover the sidelines 3 yards deep

    Iowa 2-Deep for Northwestern Game

    Iowa WR have had drop issues since 2006 and on. Then we brought in Soup, and it really cleaned up. DJK used to drop a lot too, and while he didn't have the ability of a McNutt I do remember him getting much much better. Than GDGD came in and it all fell apart. Now would be the time to get...

    Have the Ferentz’s outsmarted us all?

    We have a chance now at the West unfortunately that means Iowa will drop a game to NW, IL, or. NE to crush our spirits

    Who who says Martin comes in? I’m sure Kirk can find some walk on that has a nice story to be told

    !*****Official 'Choo-Choo' Game Thread*****!

    So I’m wondering if defenses know Iowa won’t take chances down the field or over the middle, so they scheme their defense to keep everything going outside And that’s exactly what Iowa does

    Are these damning stats for Brian Ferentz?

    Thank you for the time and effort to post this. Iowa is an average team. Good news is we are better than Nebraska

    Are these damning stats for Brian Ferentz?

    I don’t think most of us Iowa fans consider a NC reachable. For myself the goal i want from Iowa is division champs, even if it’s something like NW 2018 season where they won the division with 3 losses overall. They even put up a little fight in the championship game Iowa has won one...

    Are these damning stats for Brian Ferentz?

    Agree. KF brought in a great staff and a scheme that wasn't really familiar within the conference. His staff brought in the players, and it was a lot of fun (2001-2005). Iowa lost those great coaches (minus Norm, KOK) and the scheme didn't change. Other teams adapted and figured it out...

    Are these damning stats for Brian Ferentz?

    The athletic department would reward KF for just participating in the college football season, cause there would be no way he'd get to 7 wins if we were in the East. And you bring up a great point about our struggles against the West teams, minus MN, NE, and IL. Would we even win 6 games if...

    TJ and Noah at the draft

    the NFL product has been especially bad this year. Think the factors are partially related to the photo above, mediocre QB play. Injuries Penalties -- I swear each game has around 30 flags thrown a Q. It's unbearable to watch.

    Apathy

    How bad did Michigan suck for Martin to give up playing for a Blue Blood to come and sit on the bench for this team??? You’d probably expect UM to be a contender for Big10 next year, even if on name recognition alone Iowa will be predicted for middle of the West, or even lower with what we...

    The Invisible Problem With Iowa's Offense

    We had match-up advantages last year with our two TE, yet many games where we kept one of them off the field for long stretches. So clearly our staff wasn't interested in exploiting the defenses. I thought Iowa adjusted from UM to PSU in regards to the play clock. Stanley was able to get to...

    Are these damning stats for Brian Ferentz?

    We are accumulating so many yards because our punt returner can't or won't catch a punt and allows our offense to start at the 10 yard line every possession. Throw in opposing teams are playing Iowa defense against our offense, and we get a lot of 12 play 60 yard drives that stall for a punt...

    Depth Chart for Purdue Game

    How complex is our offense that it takes a seasoned player like Martin to figure out the playbook? I’ve heard he’s learning all 3 positions but maybe it makes sense to have him learn one so he can contribute right away ? those players in front of him will be there next year too. Tracy has...

    I wonder if Martin regrets leaving UM? Did he get any snaps against PSU?

    Howe: Big Ten Football Power Rankings After Week 7

    MN believes in themselves and their program led by Rowboat bleeds confidence. While I dont' think they are a great team, they're taking care of business and have looked competent doing it. When was the last time Iowa promoted any sort of confidence or excitement about their program? Never...
