    Bowl Talk

    Of course if PSU loses to Minn, PSU probably drops out of the 12-team CFP and falls to the Citrus. Same if Indiana loses to both Mich and Ohio St.

    Bowl Talk

    If Iowa wins out and goes 9-3, the Citrus Bowl may not have much choice. Really only 2 choices, Iowa or Illinois Minn still has to play PSU and Wisc, and they lost to Iowa. They will probably have at least 4 losses. Mich already has 4 losses and still has to play Indiana and Ohio St. Neb...

    Iowa QB Situation Remains Mystery

    https://www.thegazette.com/iowa-football/where-iowa-football-stands-with-injuries-following-week-10-win-over-wisconsin/ Kirk has already announced that Lainez is out for the UCLA game. I think somebody said he has a cast on his hand. Not sure what McNamara's status is. If McNamara and...

    Iowa in CFP???

    Lets take it one step at a time. Let's try to get ranked in the Top 25 again. UCLA is a dangerous team that just upset Nebraska. Now Iowa has to turn around after it's big win and travel all the way to the Rose Bowl to play on a Friday night. This has trap game written all over it.

    Iowa in CFP???

    No, if the Big Ten gets 4 teams, they will be Oregon (projected 13-0 or 12-1) Indiana (projected 12-1 or 11-1) Ohio St (projected 11-2 or 10-2) Penn St (projected 11-2 or 11-1) All 4 teams above will have less than 3 losses. The SEC will have a similar lineup with 3 or 4 teams. The ACC...

    No way Sullivan isn’t QB1 next week, right

    It's the Iowa one two punch Sullivan (wears #1) is now the #1 QB Kaleb Johnson (wears #2) is the All American RB

    Preview, Prediction: Wisconsin

    I am more confused than ever now when exactly Cade suffered his concusion. This was poorly communicated by the Iowa staff. I also am not totally convinced there was nothing wrong with Cade before the roughing the passer play. That wounded duck Cade threw up before he even got hit was just awful.

    QB position got thin quick

    Exactly. Run the offense that works well for Sullivan. Sure, If he gets hurt, then the Iowa offense will struggle with whatever 3rd string backup that comes in. But at least the offense won't be struggling until Sullivan gets hurt. Next week Cade will be back and the depth problem will go...

    Tyrone tracy mnf

    Tracy wasted one year at Purdue as a WR before he was switched to RB in his extra Covid year. Tracy was extremely lucky to have that extra year and to have an assistant coach at Purdue recognize his potential to play RB

    Play of the game...

    The way Cade threw that wounded duck on that roughing the passer play, it made me wonder if he was already hurt before that play ever started.

    Iowa QB Situation Remains Mystery

    The way Cade threw that wounded duck on that roughing the passer play, it made me wonder if he was already hurt before that play ever started. In fact I wonder if he was already hurt before the NW game even started. There was something weird about how the coaches already had a plan for...

    Iowa QB Situation Remains Mystery

    One concern with a running QB is he will slowly get banged up if not completely knocked out with an injury. So if Sullivan takes over full time, you will still need a backup ready to go, which is a role that Cade can fill. Looking ahead to next year, if Sullivan is the starter, it might...

    Play of the game...

    Exactly, if Sullivan starts from now on, and keeps running as much as he did against NW, he will start to get banged up or flat out injured. If you are going to play a running QB, you need to have another QB ready to go. Cade can probably fill that backup role best. Now I don't know how...

    WNBA finals have been great

    Agree the WNBA has a problem when the 2 best teams play a best of 5 series that goes down the wire, and the fans still dont find it compelling. the games were low scoring games in the 60's with inconsistent officiating and thuggish behavior from the players. Sabrina Iescou, the great 3...

    Keith Murphy's interview with Chris Doyle

    Interesting that almost nobody has brought up the old Rhabdo controversy that also involved coach Doyle. Maybe it's so old news that it's all considered water under the bridge now. But that was a case where somebody could have gotten fired and Kirk and the administration decided to support...

    Thanks Captain Kirk

    I doubt that's the case. Mote than anything, they are competing for Phil Parker's approval. Their #1 motivation to get more playing time and/or not get benched and not get yelled at. On Phil Parker's defense you either perform or you sit. I mean, does Jon Nestor really have any memory of...

    Which player on this team is being underused and will do bigger things in the NFL?

    John Nestor, Deshaun Lee, TJ Hall, and Xavier Nwankpa Sorry, I should not pick on Iowa's secondary, but there seems to be a lot of potential talent there that has not developed at a rate Iowa fans expect. But there is still time for one or two of them to step up. I really thought Lee was...

    Which player on this team is being underused and will do bigger things in the NFL?

    Luke Lachey. I hate to say it but Tim Lester is not using the TE as well as Brian Ferentz did. Although overall Lester is better overall job of getting the ball to all recievers.

    The bad game.

    Iowa still has a favorable schedule with NW, Wisc and Neb games all at home. There is still a good chance Iowa will finish 6-3 in conference and 8-4 overall, which will be around 7th place behind Ore, Ohio St, Ind, PSU, wisc and ILL.
