Brad Banks in 2002 with 105 yards in a 62-10 win over Northwestern. Banks also tied the Big Ten record for completion percentage in the game.

I am tempted to say Brown should be given the start for the Wisconsin game. He has probably been practicing with the 1st team for a week at this point, maybe two weeks by game time. It's about as good of a time to find out where Brown is in development. If Gronowski's knee isn't 100%, why...

USC having a lot of trouble with Illinois. 10-24 Rutgers 28 - Minnesota 24 Both defenses are kind of meh.

Even though Rutgers was a much harder fought game than UMass, Gronowske was surprisingly consistent in the passing game across both efforts. UMass 16 of 24 66.7% 179 yrds 7.5 yrd/A 2 TD-pass 1 TD-run 0 Int 2 sack for 11 yrd-loss QB rating 156.8 Rutgers 12 of 18 66.7% 186 yrds...

... Just shit the bed. Iowa State 36 Kansas 45

Feel free to discuss, if you think this is a relevant comparison. In 2017 Iowa had a stout defense and an offense with some serious questions. The offensive line had two untested underclassmen tackles in red shirt freshman Aleric Jackson and true freshman Tristan Wirfs. The center of the line...

Who do you have as the Iowa's best offensive linemen? Tyler Linderbaum C RS JR Cody Ince LG RS JR (can play tackle) Kyler Schott RG/LG RS SR (? coming back from injury) Connor Colby RT/RG FR Justin Britt RG/C RS SO Mason Richman LT/LG RS FR Nick DeJong RT RS SO Tyler Elsbury LG/RG RS...

Team Trump now has an official mascot. Man-Pig-Bear-Patriot-Viking

They shattered the trophy while celebrating in the locker room. "I’m not under oath, so I don’t know if I have to speak," head coach Paul Chryst said. "Just wanted everyone to have a piece of that trophy." LOL

Apparently a couple of state employees counting Bighorn sheep out in Utah spotted a strange monolith out in the middle nowhere. Reaction was "What the hell was that. Lets have a look." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FU0i9VvPmoY

From the second day of the NFL draft. It's the live Bill Belichick draft cam shot.

Sagarin has Iowa at #14. This includes Jan 2 games. I moves Iowa up one spot past Utah. ESPN's FPI numbers have Iowa at #15 and don't yet reflect the outcome of the Utah vs. Texas game. (Other drive based rankings such as S&P+, FEI and ESPN FPI haven't been updated for any of the bowls yet.)...

I happen to like the current East- West divisions even though they are lopsided, but there may come a point when something else has to be tried. Here is the scenario. 5-6 years from now Rutgers and Maryland get totally fed up with having no chance in a division with Ohio State, Penn State...

Ranking Indexes and Other Assorted Nonsense. Just for fun, for anyone interested. The number after the wins-losses is the raw index number. The next three ratings are offense, defense, and special teams. The combined index number is a weighted average of the offensive, defensive and special...

Iowa's record against Michigan under coach Ferentz is 7-5, with 5 of the last 6 games being wins. Iowa is 5-2 at home and 2-3 away. Interestingly, 4 of the last 6 have been home games for the Hawkeyes. 2001 L 26 - 32 Home 2002 W 34 - 9 Away 2003 W 30 - 27 Home 2004 L 17 - 30 Away...

Bye week couldn't come at a better time. Followed by another tune up game against Middle Tennessee State. Iowa's defense badly needs the next three weeks to try remedy a number of issues. It's a chance to get the defensive secondary healthier. Hankins and Brents can take their time coming...

On switching from RT to LT. "It's kind of like wiping your butt with the other hand when you first start doing it,” Wirfs said. “It just feels awkward. That might be too much information, but that's kind of what it is. Once you settle in, you feel pretty good.” Apparently he's ambidextrous too.

Quarterback McClane Carter is a senior transfer came up through Texas Tech and Tyler JC. He started at Tyler JC in 2016 as a redshirt freshman, passing for 3,226 yards and 30 touchdowns in just nine games. He transferred to Texas Tech in 2017, served as a backup and started a game toward the...
