    Gronowske's stats surprisingly consistent for last two games

    I think Indiana threw for over 300 yrds to prove your point. If Iowa can continue to get the running game production from the RB's and including Gronowski, that will play into ball control and TOP. Let's just hope he doesn't get injured with the hits. So far, he looks to be able to avoid direct...

    Odds Against Indiana

    The defense has got to get things figured out. This will be a different dog coming into Kinnick Saturday. When was the last time we would have said the defense has to step up and hold there own compared to the offense?!! Lol.

    Gronowske's stats surprisingly consistent for last two games

    Boy, it sure is nice winning the numbers game prior to each snap, on offense. What a nice bonus. Fans have been harboring for that for years.

    When will leftists cease their violent rhetoric?

    After Charlie Kirk's assassination, I don't recall one, not one riot or attack against the other side. Not one riot reported in any major city or anywhere. I can only imagine what would have happen if it would have been the other way. Imagine if a progressive supporter were murdered. Half the...

    Why does Nebby have so much more money than us?

    Three div 1 programs adding UNI, and when they are good I could see them pulling more $$ but it would be a little inconsistent compared to Iowa or Iowa St, again depending on if UNI is in a good cycle of winning and contending.

    Watching the games without cable.

    Revisiting this. I confirmed with the guy that ESPN is definitely included as is BIG 10, NFL package, NBA package, college football games, hockey, baseball. He sent me the channel list and it literally ends at 4241. 265 ESPN+ channels.

    Buying a new vehicle

    I never understood how people can't negotiate, especially after the advent of the internet. All you have to do is find the best market price of the car in your area and the true value of anything you are trading in. It's pretty simple math. Don't get sucked into the weeds from the...

    Why People REGRET Buying Solar Panels in 2025

    I was listening to Chris & Chris the other day and Hassel said his wife works with Traveler's insurance. They were discussing solar panels and his wife commented that if there is a storm or something and they get trashed it's all on the homeowner as I don't think insurance companies insure them...

    Advanced Iowa Stats…Pretty Interesting Stuff…

    It's definitely a luxury having two starter quality guys. The past several years, if felt as if the #1 went out, Iowa was screwed. At least now you feel you have a formidable guy coming in.

    Advanced Iowa Stats…Pretty Interesting Stuff…

    Agree. We know Iowa hasn't beaten a top 20 team in sometimes it seems. Now I realize much of that is due to the offensive issues they have had, but Iowa hasn't really been tearing it up on D against top notch teams. We'll know more after the first two BIG games.

    For The Notre Dame Fans….

    ND is just as overrated every year as Nebby. Well, not quite, but is pretty close. Screw them both.

    Iowa vs. Rutgers Predictions

    Agree on Indiana. That is the bar setter going forward now that Gronk is 4 games in.

    Couple of Surprises

    But it was UMass which really did nothing for the development on the field except for maybe a confidence boost. It will be interesting to see if they can keep it up against Rutgers. If they have success similar to last Saturday I will feel much better.

    Couple of Surprises

    Yea, it wasn't on him. But, he does do this weird flip of the ball which looks like going back to rugby that could cost him in other games as takes a bit of extra time. But, that wasn't the case last game.

    Couple of Surprises

    What do you mean the punt wasn't blocked at all?? What surprises me the most is that Iowa has not forced one turnover. Weird.

    Iowa vs. Rutgers Predictions

    Iowa is going to run into another decent defense. Not UMass and will prob look pretty underwhelming on offense with challenges in the passing game. We will all be back where after we were after the Iowa State game. Hope not, but would not surprise me.

    Cleveland.com sends clear Woody Hayes message to Iowa Hawkeyes coach Kirk Ferentz

    I can counter the arguments. Woody Hayes did it at Ohio State with the top recruits, $$ & resources. Even the stadium digs were well above many other programs. Kirk did it at lowly Iowa. Would Woody Hayes have hit 205 at Iowa in the same time period? Prob not. Could KF have hit 206 in less...

    Ostrenga Is Out For The Year

    We'll be seeing Thomas Meyer sooner than later I guess.

    Pollard, Campbell and Goetz

    I thought it was interesting watch the Big Noon show. Urban Meyer was telling a story how a blue blood called Campbell years ago when hiring a new coach. Campbell called up Meyer for his advice on if he should take the job and stated "Coach, you can win a NC at this school". Meyer told him to...

    Mark Gronowski - I didn't know!

    If you had the opportunity to watch Big Noon Kickoff, they did a heart tugging story about Mark Gronowski and about his relationship with his brother who battles severe epilepsy along with a development condition. I never knew of this story, and it really tells me a ton about his character and...
