ESPN family has first choice(s)

One of the toughest things about teams joining new conferences, is they don't understand the environment and hallmarks of other teams. I don't think they have any idea what they are about to tangle with. The insinuation that Iowa is a toss up game and a must win because Penn State and MSU are...

Respectfully disagree. Nebraska use to have 20 players that are now on rosters of the Wiskys and Iowa's of the world. to take it further, there are 200 kids that use to get scholarships from the original big that now find there way to Iowa state, UNI, MAC schools. Going from 105 to 85 is the...

Scholarship reductions is more significant than training techniques

yes, it was a kick in the gonads. The Big Ten was a trailblazer then too. Prior to that year, outside of tie ins for conference champs, bowl selection was a free for all. The Big 10 struck a deal with the Holiday bowl to send it's number 3 team for a set number of years, but in year one it got...

It has consistently improved. Not where it needs to be, but each successive game has yielded more yards. Look for it to continue this week. If we can be around 200yds per game through the balance of the season, coupled with they typical 200 yds passing.... Good things should happen. I think they...

Some weird auto correct. The slow, but awesome receiver was Halverson

Ronnie Harmon, Quinn Early, Robert Smith should be considered...Coach Fry did play the slow Halvetdon and Happel more than Early though. Quinn had the best NFL career of any Iowa receiver of the last 40 years... Guess ole coach played 'favorites'... Good thing message boards weren't around then...

Or he keeps getting time as a Soph and Jr., taking the reigns full time as a senior if he's better than the backup some of you will be clamoring for then. Not everyone takes their ball and runs home. FWIW people were saying Jake would/should do the same thing as he watched Vandy in 2012

Likely the correct answer. The second half was appropriately conservative. The frosh QB made them one dimensional. After the TD to end the half, the clock was a 12th and 13th defender for the Hawks. Effing up on offense is all that would let them pose a legit threat

You guys are too much. He's a sophomore. He's a good QB, he did go long, he did throw inaccurately, he made nice runs, he took hard hits, he missed KMM who ran the routes correctly, he looked excited not deflated, he will play again this year, he's behind a Jr who has now started games that...

I had no problems with KF putting JR back in. Somewhat relieved at that point in time. And yes, I'm sure you would be leaving town. I'm guessing CJB is a bit tougher than you, and probably understands his play today quite well.

You guys sound like republican and democrats during campaign season.... I'm a Jake supporter, I support CJ. always attacking, while the VAST majority tire of the idiocy. I'm not singleing you out biased Hawkeye, it's just the one I hit replay on. I agree with you .... Not the zone read, but...

I thought most of you guys were boycotting the games to send a message to Barta

teh offensive staff does

Don't have time to look up, but I'm guessing it's CJ.... We had way too many missed FG early, and in two of those times, TE drops on 3rd down inside the 10 yd line. If we converted, probably pretty indistinguishable. Just guessing.

Yes I watch football, and a lot of Iowa Football. And, I spent 5 years behind the walls of Fort Kinnick as some like to call it, thus I do know what is worked during off weeks.

OLine timing. It's a scheme that is dependent on timing and orchestrated movement. Bye week came at a good time. Running back rythum? Canzeri' health has to be improving. Wiseman will get 15 + carries. And, I think you'll see Parker have some impact in spots. Plewa returning, kenny learning...

We debate because it passes the time before our team plays again, and because the team rushes for 3.64 yd/carry with JR., 3.5 something wit CJ. Both pretty dang dismal, and not much of a difference. The QB stats are pretty indistinguishable too. The only difference so far is one throws harder...

Yes small sample, but taking out plays that happened are silly. If us play that game take out the tipped pass at the line of scrimmage that luckily Parker reeled in and went for 40. QB isnt the position holding us back. Difference of opinion. Shorter fields, plays from the other 2/3...
