    64 yards

    Also why in the hell was Iowa running the ball on that last drive? I'm not even saying that because of the fumble but with the clock situation you needed 10 yards on that play for it even to be effective, and then have to get set to run another play. Seemed really stupid to be doing that when...

    POLL: Peyton Mansell / Next Year

    The problem there is Beathard was a known talent. We have no idea what the backups have to offer because they don't have much experience. Beathard had played before when the decision was made on who would be the QB.

    Lack of Accountability

    Barta showed what kind of AD he was during the whole Jane Meyer situation. He's a fundraiser and that's it. Totally ineffective in the other areas. Just look at his coaching hires in all sports. He's had some disasters there. Took him way too long to get baseball and volleyball back on...

    POLL: Peyton Mansell / Next Year

    The freshman QB is supposed to be the one with the most upside. He broke a bunch of Jared Goff's high school records. He's got the size and arm. Manzel looks decent and reminds me of Tate, but the true freshman I think will be the guy when Stanley is gone.

    64 yards

    I think the RB's are just fine. We have three that are all different types of backs. No doubt the injury bug has hampered IKM. There were no holes on Saturday and Iowa kept trying to run outside. That's on the line and play calling. The RB's have shown they can make things happen when they...

    2-0 start, but...

    Thursday will be the real test. If they give up a ton of points we will know it's going to be a long season.

    So you are through watching Iowa Football

    I'm 41 and have seen many frustrating games. Doesn't mean I'll ever stop no matter the outcome.

    Tailgating- Hancher Lot

    Usually I tailgate at the Myrtle lot or the First Mennonite lot. Saturday we are going to give the Hancher lot a go. Knowing that this is a night game and is sold out does that lot fill up? I know the other lots require you to sometimes show up pretty early so was just trying to see when to...

    So what is going to take to win at Iowa

    Iowa will never get 4 and 5 start recruits year in and year out. To win at Iowa you need guys to get better along the way and stay healthy. Fundamentals are key and mixing in a 4 star kid here and there will help.

    Tyler Cook Says Decision to be Made About Future

    He doesn't run the plays and has dumb people around him telling him to leave. IMO it might be better if he just goes. He's talented and not ready for NBA but he's had a history at Iowa of not listening to Fran and trying to score on his own.

    I have new respect for how difficult Rob/Jon's job is.

    There is talent there, but this team is just mentally weak and very lazy. Some of the worst breakdowns and defensive efforts I’ve seen in years. Lick’s teams lacked talent. This team lacks leadership and focus.

    This team is lazy as hell.

    Do you want Fran fired?

    Fran has done a lot of good for Iowa basketball overall. The program was cracking under Alford and it completely crumbled under Lickliter. It's been frustrating at times with Fran, but I also remember being frustrated with Tom Davis as well. We all know how that ended when the AD listened to...

    RPIs this week: Drake-210, Iowa-245, Southern - 250

    This team isn't making the postseason. It's all about growth and development right now. As long as they keep improving I'm not going to get too upset. It's a lost season in terms of the NCAA's or NIT so I'm just going to do my best to enjoy the young hawks. This still isn't at the level of...

    The kids need confidence right now and at this point I don't care about the quality of the opponent.

    TK was slacking !*****Official 'The Ragin' Caymans play the Hawks on a Monday Morning Game Thread**

    I'm not giving up either but after last game and this one, I'm wondering if some people talked this team up too much.

    Lack of a PG or not Iowa should not have lost this game. Shouldn't have needed Baer either. Hopefully they learn from this because it was a BS loss.
