    Black & Gold Hawkeye Koolaide...Hey Koolaide!!

    last yr vs Wisky Iowa trailed 14-9 with less than 7min to go in the 4th. Two Iowa INTs deep in our territory gave Wisky ball on 20 and 25 and two very short fields that blew the game open

    Black & Gold Hawkeye Koolaide...Hey Koolaide!!

    Wisky's D is #1 overall in several categories and top 5 in nearly all. But they have faced the #119,111,110,108,98,87,77,33 (Bowling Green),31 (Nebraska) +FCS W. IL Offenses which is an Ave rank #86 in yds. Ave rank of #75 in pts. This gives me hope Iowa can score some points anyway....I...

    at least draw contact, he always seems to drift, softly and try to flip it in. When you are 6'1" you need waaaay more separation against the likes of TX interior. Maybe a tear-drop floater sooner, idk but yes please stop over penatrating with that soft stuff

    So, what's the biggest concern? Offense or Defense come Saturday?

    a few point about last years' game. To pendulum really swung in Wisky's favor after 2 INTs gave them a short field in 2nd half. Iowa led 6-0 with less than 2:00 remaining before Halftime. Iowa had 1st down from the 6 and 12 and only got 6 pts Rudock INT on 20 give WISC short field in 3rd...

    On the Willies Front

    I know this isn't the same, but players have been known to take a leave of absence in mid-season and come back, they just don't announce their decision to transfer (al beit closer to ailing father). Obviously it doesn't generally play out in the media. Pretty sure LTP took a couple days like...

    On the Willies Front

    "It's a lot to deal all at once when the man you look up to your whole life tells you he only has a little time left. My father is going to move here and I am going to try and get my place back on the team. That's all I have to say on everything."

    Willies staying?

    Today: "I'm a Hawkeye. I thought I was putting my family first. Only after time did I realize I'm leaving my family here... my team. It's a lot to deal all at once… when the man you look up to your whole life tells you he only has a little time left. My father is going to move here and I am...

    means they'll shoot like 12 of 15 from 3, 21/22 FTs and about 60% from the field vs Hawks. That's just the way it works lol

    Minneapolis weather on Saturday

    As noted, the field runs East-West and it looks like the wind will be a cross-wind, more diagonal than sideline-to-sideline. I noticed my weather app no longer shows the "blustery winds" imagery for the day. Shows winds at NW 16mph at KO, diminishing from there to 12mph WNW at end of game...

    KF never took the wind in Ames-and usually doesnt

    and it looks like it will be a cross-wind, more diagonal than sideline-to-sideline. I noticed my weather app no longer shows the "blustery winds" imagery for the day. Shows winds at NW 16mph at KO, diminishing from there to 12mph WNW at end of game. That doesn't sound terrible for passing...

    Becoming Weisman

    good story, great Hawk. I know alot of fans like someone flashier, but he get things done and will likely leave as the all-time rushing TD leader. I think we all agree though, the stretch play shouldn't be for him unless we are steamrolling the opponent like NW :)
