From what I have read, Patterson is behind the other three. He is healthy and supposed to play this Saturday. I think Washington is #5 on the depth chart. He really did not perform all that well early in the season when he had a lot of carries. Lester did say this week that he wishes that...

This is what I was going to bring up. Most of their players are from warmer and dryer climates. And they are a young team. I agree it won't decide the game but I could see this being a factor. As a fan, I hate rainy game days.

I would love to visit sometime. Love the good, independent pizza joints.

100%. Worst pizza ever. And you couldn't pay me to go through that buffet. Since I moved back to Iowa City 10 years ago I haven't been to a Pizza Ranch once. And, I'm a boomer. :) Pagliai's and Wig & Pen are the only places I get pizza here. Totally different styles but both are top notch.

Good point. My earlier comment was not directed at the OP, just meant this gets brought up in general a lot.

If you keep saying this over and over, eventually you'd be right. But yes, this is dumb.

Agree on Oregon. And, a lot of these two loss teams are going to lose another game. The key will be to stay a two loss team.

I remember that Tim Lester had to do a pretty hard sales pitch to get him to come back this year, i.e. he would be more involved in the offense. Which has come true. But I think he is set on jumping to the NFL after this year regardless of any possible eligibility he might have left.

Thanks for the clarification.

I'm pretty sure Wetjen is set on trying out for the NFL after the season. I wonder if he could try for one more season with the Hawks since the JUCO years have been wiped out, leaving four years of eligibility after the JUCO years are over? I think he has been on the team for four years but...

I think you're on to something and I have had similar thoughts. Lanning is a good coach and I believe he knows what he is getting into Saturday. But getting 18-22 year old kids to buy into that is a whole other thing. I don't know if we win but I really believe we can take these guys by...

Temperatures in the mid 50s with a slight chance of rain. And winds at 10-15 mph but in Kinnick that doesn't seem to affect things too much.

On ESPN Bet the line has moved to 5.5.

Not good. And, their O-Line struggles. They gave up 9 sacks to Minnesota. Having superiority on both lines is golden to KF. It may be a closer game than initially thought but looks like the type of game that we win, especially in November.

They play at UCLA, at Penn State then home against us to finish the season on Black Friday. I could see them losing out without Raiola being out for the year. And yes, the backup QB was pretty bad. They are going to be a lot like us after losing Cade the last couple of years. Virtually no...

This is what I don't always like about replay. There is sometimes too much deference to "it has to be overwhelming evidence to overturn the call on the field". Half the time, the refs on the field are just guessing and waiting for replay to bail them out.

They have a decent starting 11 on both sides of the ball. But when they get injuries, like every team does, they don't have the depth to fill those spots. This is where their lack of recruiting hurts them. Campbell can make a diamond out of a rough only so many times.

Minnesota gets extremely lucky on late game, controversial calls. Just ask Cooper DeJean.

Good offense. Horrible defense. That is part of the reason Oregon was able to put up 56 on them. They can't stop anybody.

That is why I called him the most valuable in this thread.
