    Carver Arena is BORING

    I went to the Purdue game and the atmosphere was terrific, so carver is certainly capable of having a good atmosphere. But I do agree it needs to be better more consistently. The students are a complete non-factor and that needs to change.

    RB Tix Falling

    Just checked Stub Hub and tons of tickets for under $250. Wow, quite the change.

    RB Tix Falling

    I booked a flight for ORD to LAX leaving on 12/31 and in LAX by 5pm. Return Saturday morning and back to ORD by 5pm. $618 before fees, etc. I just booked that 2 days ago. The $688 non-stop flight from CR to LAX on United that someone previously posted is a one way price. Round trip is still...

    Damn expensive roses. Holy smokes.

    My friend just bought tickets for $300 and the rose bowl website has them starting at $150 if you can get lucky enough to get some. Not sure who is selling them for $1000 but you can definitely get them much cheaper.

    Disappointed in fans

    It depends where you tailgate I guess. I was referring primarily to the drinking games they banned and they banned music. The week after the Iowa state game you could once again listen to music and play drinking games without fear of some jerk shutting down your tailgate. I don't post game...

    Disappointed in fans

    The tailgating crackdown ended several seasons back. I believe it was 2010 after the Iowa state game that they finally relaxed the rules. It was really bad for awhile though. We had some cops get really ****** off at us because we had music playing. Like so mad I thought he was going to arrest...

    Iowa 7th lowest stipend among Power 5 schools listed (nearly 60 of 65)

    The cost of attendance is calculated by each universities financial aid departments. The athletic department has no say in how much they can pay out. Naturally the huge disparities are a cause for concern though. Clemson, among others, are already calling for change on this to make it more even...

    Updated Bracketology

    That is incorrect. Locations and dates are set in stone and have been for some time. Times are unknown until Sunday night. Jacksonville, Louisville, Pittsburgh, and Portland are Thursday/Saturday games. Charlotte, Columbus, Omaha Seattle are Friday/Sunday games. Second-Third...

    Updated Bracketology

    Jerry Palm has dropped us down to an 8 playing Oklahoma St on a Thursday in Pittsburgh, with Villanova awaiting the winner. Lunardi has us as a 7 still playing Colorado St in Seattle with Gonzaga the 2 seed. This would be a Friday game. For selfish reasons I really want a Friday game and...

    student section

    When I was a student during the Alford era student tickets were an extremely hot commodity. What is the reason students no longer go to the games? We have to have the worst student section in the b1g.

    RPI and BPI both at 45 per ESPN

    All 8 losses vs 69 or better in the RPI. I'd say that puts us on the good side of the bubble with the hardest part of our schedule behind us. Time to take care of business from here on out.

    See this stat floating around: Division I, Most Losses After Leading at the Half

    I'm a big supporter of Fran, but you cannot see a stat like this and not blame the coach. He clearly struggles to make adjustments in the 2nd half. This stat alone explains why we have been an nit or fringe NCAA team the past few years. We have to get over this if we want to take this program...

    Do Your Part - Do Not Purchase Bowl Game Tickets

    Your memory is failing you. Iowa played Missouri in the insight bowl following the 2010 season. We played Arkansas st in 2009. So you could not have attended the ark st game after you watched the insight bowl.

    Do Your Part - Do Not Purchase Bowl Game Tickets

    I'm one of those people, but not because I don't care if we win or lose, but because I'm a hawkeye fan. I'll support this team no matter the record. If being a diehard fan that will support the team no matter what is a detriment to the program then too bad because I'm not going to waiver in my...

    Kinnick Stadium is dead. Ferentz killed it.

    Kinnick stadium died after the renovations in 2005 when they moved the student section. It hasn't been the same since. There have been instances of great atmospheres since, I.e. Wisconsin 2 games back, but overall kinnick s not nearly as intimidating after they tucked the students into the...

    Gordon on Iowa Fans

    I sit in row 4 on the 27 yard line right behind the Wisconsin bench. Melvin Gordon will hear us. Just ask pat Fitzgerald. Man we let him have it, it was great.

    Why Friday?

    I absolutely hate that Iowa plays on Black Friday. I have to use a vacation day as this is a normal work day where I work, plus it makes thanksgiving plans even more difficult. I hope someday soon Iowa does away with this. There are 4 other games being televised while the Iowa game is on Friday...
