    I just don't see Iowa winning Friday

    And I hate to say that as I'm usually a half glass full guy. But the more I read about Temple, good defense, strong center (not tall, but physical) streaky 3 point shooting (have to imagine they'll have open looks), good in close games...I just don't see it. Please convince me otherwise.

    Bringing a buddy's motorhome up from KC for Minnesota game and not sure of the options. Coming up Friday and hoping to park somewhere near the stadium until Sunday morning. Anyone aware of options/locations/contacts? thanks in advance

    50/50 for Gator Bowl

    Got a call from a friend in Jax last night who is close to the situation. He said Music City is most likely down to Louisville and ND (I believe that's what he said...I was driving) and the January 2nd Gator will take a Big Ten team. They are choosing between Penn State and Iowa and a lot of...

    What are the odds of Iowa trotting out...

    ...KF, Greg Davis and Jake Rudock to start 2015? Quite frankly, it's a very depressing thought. Here's what I think/hope will go down: Greg Davis will retire, opening up the OC position and more importantly, the QB position since both (really all 3) QB's will have the same time in the new...

    When did you see the skid coming?

    I think for me, I became concerned during our win against Minnesota. Score looked good at the end, but we dug a pretty good hole in the first half and our lack of half court offense really jumped out at me. I remember thinking that they better get this fixed or we are going to be vulnerable. Not...

    Iowa -5?

    That's the spread I'm seeing. Sucker bet? Might be good for our boys.

    AJ Epenesa just received first recruiting letter from Florida State

    I've talked about this kid before. He's a first team freshmen all american at Edwardsville High School (6A) near St. Louis. He's also the son of former hawkeye Epenesa Epenesa. Roughly 6'4", 240 pound DE. Sure hope someone from Iowa gets in on this kid early because the family loves the...

    The Next Big Fish - AJ Epenesa

    This is Epenesa's kid. I know Eppy well and this kid is a freak of nature. Iowa needs to make this one happen because this kid will have his pick of schools...and most likely his little brothers will as well. This is large school St. Louis. His sister is already playing VBall at Purdue. The...

    Good news...trending to DESTROY last year passing TD totals

    1 TD pass on Saturday, puts the trend at 12 for the season. That's a 71% increase over 2012! I will go out on a limb and say we lead the nation in highest trended increase in passing TD's vs 2012. How's THAT for a silver lining?

    Andy Reid talks Stanzi

    Not much, but something. More than we heard from Romeo... From the KC Star: ...Their other quarterbacks last season were Quinn, a potential unrestricted free agent, Ricky Stanzi and Alex Tanney, who joined the Chiefs last year as an undrafted rookie and spent all season on the injured-reserve...

    Is the next game (Michigan) really Sunday at 11am?

    Am I reading this correctly? I guess a positive might be that the crowd won't be real into it (@ michigan)?

    Nebraska favored by 14.5

    I have to believe this is going to shoot up to at least the 17 or 18 range by Friday.

    What are tickets scalping for these days?

    My 19 year old son wants to roadtrip from KC with four buddies. He's thinking the UNI game. Stubhub is starting at $80 per ticket and I have to think he can do better than that. Haven't scalped in a while, but curious what to expect if team looks decent going into UNI game. thanks

    Stanzi needs to pick it up

    The fickle KC natives are starting to write him off and yesterday's practice didn't help. Chiefs’ joint practice with Cardinals has bright spots and failures - KansasCity.com I am anxious to see him play Friday night and hope he can get in with the #2's.

    Crennel on Stanzi

    ''We’ll have to feel good about whoever we look at that he’ll have a chance to compete with Stanzi or he has to be better than Stanzi, which might be tough at this point,'' Crennel said. Read more here: No QB for Chiefs? | Red Zone No QB's drafted by the Chiefs. Encouraging for Stanzi.

    Reiff 1st Big Ten player selected in draft...

    and I was about to post "possibly only Big 10 player selected in first round", but Illinois guy just got drafted. There seem to be quite a few Big 10ers showing up on the "next best" lists so hopefully the conference can show a little better in the next half hour (6 picks to go as I post)...

    Really need Northwestern to win tonight

    Maybe stating the obvious, but it has to benefit Iowa for NU to make NCAA Tourney and get them out of the NIT mix. In addition, it can only help for Minnesota to lose and get them out of the same mix. Of course, win three more and it won't matter.

    Does Baylor have to pick stuff up on the side of the road after this game?

    Shouldn't have any problems avoiding traffic with those uni's
