Iowa has laid an egg in 2 straight road games at Mich St and UCLA. In both games, Iowa's defense did a very bad job of tackling compared to the typical Iowa defense. This got me wondering what could be the problem other than just being on the road in general. One thing MSU and UCLA have in...

I heard a while back that James Daniels is the only lineman in the NFL that is wearing the padded helmet during games. I don't know if that still is true.

Which is why Texas St is now a serious candidate to join the newly reborn Pac conference. I think there is an official requirement that all football schools in the new Pac must have a name that ends with "state". The other 7 football schools are: Wash St, Ore St, Boise St, Col St, Fresno...

https://www.tamuc.edu/texas-am-university-system-board-of-regents-approves-name-change-for-texas-am-university-commerce/ It's official. T&M - Commerce has officially changed its name to East Texas A&M, effectively immediately.

I still have a hunch that Cade was banged up before the NW game even started. The plan was to let Cade play in the 1Q, and if it was clear he could not continue, then bring in Sullivan and let him finish the game. Kinda like in 2021 when Spencer petras started against NW even though he was...

I hear they are thinking about changing their name to East Texas A&M.

My favorite thing I like about UCLA

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.

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...

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...

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.

Your odds may not be as bad as you think. Believe or not, you have kinda grown on me over the years. I am sure others would agree you are a cool kid, Rob!

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...

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

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.

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...

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

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.

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...

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...
