    Where do we go after Saturday's loss?

    I gotta say, the same people who were so very silent last week are certainly very loud this week. Look, here's where we go from here: 1) Back to practice. The same plays that worked against OSU didn't against Wisconsin because of fixable mistakes like dropped balls. 2) On Saturday, we go to...

    Don't laugh

    So let's say you want to saddle the defense with the whole shebang... they scored 14, so really the game was more like 24-0. and with 40 minutes on the field, that's just over .5 points per minute. Let's see if we look back at previous games TOP this season and look at how many points per...

    Friendly Wagers?

    Maybe if you actually asked a non-rhetorical question that wasn't dripping in vitriolic hate. Also, not sure if you saw the name of the thread, but it does say "friendly wagers" not Vegas betting. You're better than this.

    Amazing trends revealed on podcast

    I really wanna agree with you. But I can't. You're totally right about the coin flip part, but if I flipped a coin 50 times and got the same thing every time, I'd start to wonder about the coin. Which is where the trends come in. But where you're totally right is this: trends that include...

    Friendly Wagers?

    Give it a rest. No need to hijack an innocent thread. As for me, I have no friends with strong allegiances to any of Iowa's regular rivals... I wish I did, I love the idea of that kind of wager.

    Desmond King

    Agreed. He didn't get any taller or faster in 2015 and magically lose those in 2016. Even people who get paid a ton of money to scout these guys make mistakes. The list of #1 overall draft pick flops is all the evidence you need of that.

    What is the reaction in Kinnick...

    I think he should troll all of us by running really slowly out of the tunnel.

    Ferentz adds another

    I'm not saying we all have to be sunshine, rainbows, unicorns, puppies and kittens about everything based off of one win in one season. But there are some times in life where it's okay to turn off the turd-throwing for at least a little bit of time. But let me turn the question 90 degrees...

    Ferentz adds another

    Man, just letting the hate flow. Are you incapable of even saying one nice thing about KF, even after that beatdown of OSU?

    Snyder torn ACL

    ACL tears are horrible and they definitely do linger for most people. But in general (this is verifiable, look it up if you want, but this isn't a medical forum), ACL tears take, on average, between 6 and 12 months to return to 100%. This is mitigated or hindered by a lot of factors. Age is a...

    Stanley should be punting

    We know he's got the brain needed for QB... can you imagine if we always line up in 21 formations on ALL 4th and less than 7's... Stanley has the option to punt, pass, or hand off based on what the defense does in terms of setting up a return or not.

    To answer hawkinn3's question

    Who of us last season thought to ourselves "Man, we might miss Bo Bower out there..."? And yet here we are.

    If you see a negative post re the game, put a link in this thread.

    Ferentz specifically said in his presser after the game that no coach called that. And it's not an option to the punter...

    Enjoy this

    I think he might have had more rushing yards than JK Dobbins did on Saturday.... definitely more TDs

    Punt Si o No?

    So the coach at Pulaski takes it to the very extreme. The data sets that the professor who came up with the "never punt" theory used all have one major limitation: Most teams usually only go for it on fourth down in dire circumstances in which it is almost always the best bet. But, it does...

    Marvin McNutt head coach

    Well, it has been an effective recruiting pipeline as of late.

    Marvin McNutt head coach

    Hawknick was always sickeningly positive... Joshbrown, not so much. I prefer happy and stupid over cranky and stupid

    I have a couple of questions for you

    Also it's been a long time since I stood up and yelled "************ BOWER!!!!" at my TV

    Poll: Brian's Future

    The Central Limit Theorem, as a general rule, requires a sample size of 30 to begin to understand an unknown underlying distribution (which your stats would be). So, there you go. I'll give you a hard number. After 30 games as OC, then we can revisit these numbers. But until then, 8 games is...
