    The no-early-entry 2020 offensive lineup

    Petras might consider “recruiting “ AJ and Tristan for his own self interests! Not sure how great of a friend he can be to them to outweigh the millions of $$ they would be giving up. With as many OL that are rotating in this year, we might be just fine next year at all 5 spots. The interior...

    You Gotta Like this ISU Fan

    On the morning radio show, they said it was now $150,000 before the 2 matches, which pushes it to $450,000

    You Gotta Like this ISU Fan

    Anheuser Busch liked what he was doing so much that they matched his donation. Really great story.

    Stock report: Bye Week

    Punting and kicking units have been very good this year, but I think our BEST special teams play is our Kickoff coverage unit. Every time someone tries to run it back I KNOW they are not getting to the 20 yard line, much less the 25. ISU finally gave up and just started fair catching...

    Iowa Fans Take a Stand for Rutgers Punter

    I think he won the National Award, which he should have, but not the B1G award. Looney.

    Iowa Football Preview, Prediction: Hawkeyes, Rutgers Kick Off B1G Season

    Did anyone catch that their LT is a freshman? AJE has to be licking his chops! They better give that guy some help, or Sitkowski might be the QB for the rest of their year.

    PFF - All B1G Team Week One

    Sure seems hard to believe that Linderbaum didn’t grade out really high. He was an animal. Illinois scored 49 points, so that may have something to do with it.

    Pass Rush & DL Rotation

    I have no problems with the way AJE played. Everyone agrees that Miami schemed to limit the pass rush by getting the ball out of the QB’s hands quickly. Short, quick routes. My issue was that the Defense didn’t adjust and play up closer. Seems we were always giving a 7 to 10 yard cushion...

    1st offensive play from scrimmage tonight?

    RB’s and OL have been hearing all pre-season about how they need to get the running game going. Coaches have talked about it as well. I think it is a power I. 2 TE set and we run a smash-mouth play behind Tristan and Levi with Brady Ross leading Mekhi into the hole. OL is challenged to blow...

    Matt Roth moment

    And then he finished up with: “ But I respect them.” “And they’re terrific holders, too!”

    Early results

    After Rutgers embarrassing start (down 21-7 to UMass, one of the worst teams in FBS) they started to play some good football. Looks like we have to stop 3 guys: Melton, WR, is a speed burner. Former track star. Hakeem Basheer - pretty good RB Pacheco - another good RB

    Demise of HS Football - When Will this Impact P5?

    My son’s Junior high used to have an A, B and C 8th grade team. These fed into Valley high school, eventually. His cross country practices are done about the same time as Football. I started counting helmets as I drive by. I think there may be 30 kids out. Total. Some of which would...

    Howe: Forecasting the '19 Big Ten Football Race

    Ibrahim broke out after those 2 got hurt. I think he was only a freshman. 1160 yards last year averaging 5.7 yards per carry. Brooks and Smith are proven, but they did get hurt. Either they are all upper level NFL caliber RB’s or ... somebody’s doing a good job blocking for them. I...

    Howe: Forecasting the '19 Big Ten Football Race

    I didn’t say they got so much better than us. I am saying that they were a lot better last year after they replaced their defensive coordinator and they get 2 RB back who were hurt last year. They scored on us last year. So their offense is not and was not their problem. Are they good enough...

    Howe: Forecasting the '19 Big Ten Football Race

    Minnesota has 3 RB’s that are better than our best. We would gladly swap our WR’s for theirs right now. Both of their lines are big. Like Iowa, Minnesota will go as their QB goes, IMHO. I think they will be better than anyone wants to admit.

    Iowa Football Preview, Prediction: Miami Comes to Kinnick

    Obviously, expectations of a win are probably in the 99th percentile. I really want to see both 1st team units dominate the LOS and run the score up enough that KF comes out of halftime with starters for one series, just to see how sharp they can be and then the rest of the game belongs to the...

    Time To Pass To Open Up The Running Game.

    I am just hoping that 100% of the time Stanley calls an audible, it is the stretch zone run to the short side of the field. That will catch defenses off guard! (Sarcasm) Seriously, I really want to see an audible to a PASS sometime this year. It would be nice to see it at least once per game.

    BTN question?

    Tuesday, starting at 11:30 central time we get a bunch of Hawkeye content leading up to the 5:00 show where the bus with Howard, Dave and DiNardo rolls into IC to preview the team. The 3 games between 11:30 and 5:00 are the 2007 win vs MSU, 2017 vs OSU and the 2018 win vs Huskers. Those are...
