A 13 game schedule is a terrible idea IMO. Mostly because it would further eliminate the chances of ever having a playoff. If you go to 13 games, I'll guarantee the presidents make the argument that a playoff would then extend the season to "FAR" too many games and they'd never endorse it...

series, who would you choose? Prior to our debacle in the desert, I was all about playing Cal/UCLA....well, I no longer think that is a good idea. My new policy: no teams west of the Rockies. My top 10: 1. Florida State 2. Miami 3. Tennessee 4. Notre Dame (Wish they'd just join the Big...

I hope they end up being wrong. :D

I'm certainly not saying we are going to put a "beatdown" on them...but there are a significant number of trends indicating that we will likely win. My guess: Iowa wins it 24-13.

Here are a couple of reasons Iowa will be -5 (or more) in this game: 1. Wisconsin is 1-3 in their last four trips to Iowa City (and the 1 win was a 3 point victory in 06 - a 12-1 Badger squad beat a 6-7 Iowa squad by 3 points). 2. In the last 30 years, when both teams have finished the...

Texas has A LOT of ground to make up in 6 weeks if it is going to become BCS eligible....they can't lose another game or they are pretty much out of it.

I think they'll actually go to Mizzou for the Oklahoma @ Mizzou game. That is the 7PM night game next Saturday. If Iowa and MSU win this coming Saturday....Gameday will be in IC next week.

In the Coaches/AP polls after knocking off OSU? It will be a moot point anyway since we play them next week, but I'm just curious whether or not they will jump us. I think they will...but we should still gain a spot or two because Arky and South Carolina lost.

I bet you were voted "MVP" of the debate team in high school. Great counter argument.

1st down runs probably averaged around 4 yards for the game. 1st down passes averaged easily over 10 yards per pass. We were playing the worst passing defense in the country and have a QB who has, essentially, only thrown 1 INT all season. Clearly I'm the one who doesn't get it though. I...

Who called the plays on first and second down in the third quarter? KOK or KF? The gameplan isn't "play calling"...they are two entirely different things....so you're telling me if KF tells KOK to play it close to the vest before the game, but Michigan puts 11 guys on the line of scrimmage we...

Never being satisfied? We lost a 21 point 3rd quarter lead....there is absolutely NO reason whatsoever that UM was ever in a position to win that game. How can you be satisfied ******* away a 21 point 4th quarter lead? How satisfied would you have been if we would of lost that game? If that...

I give the defense a pass for what happened in the 4th quarter for the following reasons: 1. We schemed against a running QB for two weeks....there is no way we could have anticipated what would have happened if Forcier came in.....Forcier had a lot of passing success, but we also didn't...

I think that KOK should win the "not recognizing what is working offensively" award for the day. We had to be averaging 10-15 yards per play when we passed on first down....yet for some odd reason, when we had the chance to put the game away in the 3rd quarter, with a 5th years SR at QB, who is...

Missouri posters on the rivals main board have said that Iowa is definitely going to be a player now that he opened it back up. If Miller is off the board, I really hope we pull Coe and Pierson...Pierson looks like he is extremely fast and would be a good change of pace back to complement Coe...

I really like the way he can go up for the ball. He's tall and he doesn't go down on first contact. Hopefully we can get him to commit...though I have to wonder if his scholarship will still be there if Byrd commits to Iowa on Wednesday.

There is a top women's bball recruit visiting today...coach Johnson was wishing the women's bball program luck in landing her.

Before the season I felt there were two games that could prevent us from being undefeated going into the OSU game....one was Arizona, the other was Michigan. We failed the first test...hopefully we don't do the same this time around. I heard a stat yesterday that Big Ten teams are 17-32 coming...

I guess my only theory to explain the difference between the Big Ten and the other leagues is that maybe Big Ten teams struggle with it more because we don't get bye weeks every year, while other leagues do have bye weeks every year? That's the only thing I can come up with, but it is a very...

since 2002 are 17-32 coming off a bye week in league play. To further emphasize the point, OSU is 1-3 in that time span coming off a bye week. Iowa is 1-3 coming off a bye week as well. In 03 we lost to a good OSU team in the shoe 19-10, in 04 we gave OSU a beatdown in Kinnick (for our only...
