    UI's best chance for bowl W...

    BAMA. Bama is the only team Iowa matches up with. USC, Oregon, Texas, Florida all run some sort spread offense (successful passing game of more than two receivers, not necessarily an actual spread offense) that we just don't do well against. Alabama is a team built on the run and defense, just...

    Jon, nice rant this morning

    I could definitely see some disappointed people if we don't go 12-0. I know I will be disappointed. I've questioned some of the things our coaches (KOK) have done, and I'll admit it, but I've never said I want him fired. I'd hope no one would call for anyone's head if we don't go 12-0 but I...

    Burning Redshirts with 4 Games Left

    I don't see KF burning Rogers redshirt unless Paki or Wegher go down. I think KF wouldn't want to diminish Paki's confidence anymore than he might already have, by starting two freshmen over him (not that he didn't deserve to be benched). KF is gonna ride the Paki train as long as he has to...

    Murray

    he scares me quite a bit when he gets up there to kick. I honestly never know where the kick is going. I suppose as long as he keeps hitting them then he can kick them as ugly as he wants to.

    We may not see ARob for awhile

    I have a gut feeling this injury might be more serious than it is played out to be. Where do the hawks go from there if that is the case?

    Where will jewl fit in ?

    Jewel (healthy) definitely has more to offer than Wegher and A Rob right now. If he comes back healthy and ready to go he will start with A Rob backing him up. Wegher will be involved with special teams as much as possible and probably see the field in some sort of way like a slot receiver or...

    Who do we want to win?

    it's like picking between the lesser of two evils. As much as we DON'T match up with the Spread offense, I would love to Oregon win. USC just scares me talent wise and the Rose bowl is in their back yard as mentioned above numerous times. I think there would be more benefits for us to play...

    Stanzi best Hawkeye QB ever?

    I think I would have to say Chuck Long holds that spot right now. BUT if Stanzi can go out and deliver a NC this year and have another plate full of wins next year, then you'd be hard pressed not to say he was the best QB to play at Iowa. He might not have the stats but the only thing that...

    Credit Ken O'Keefe for a clever last play call!

    It was a good play call but he only made up for the two terrible sequences he called on both goal line attempts that were unsuccessful. Very good play call though, the only one that counted.

    KOK Play calling

    In regards to your question, can Iowa go 13-0 with this play calling. More than likely No. If we do make it to the National Championship game and end up playing a team from the SEC or Texas then I think it's safe to say our defense will probably give up a couple touchdowns. Which means we...

    Play Calling on the Last Drive - Stanzi or KOK?

    I would assume in the two minute drill some of the plays, whether called by Stanzi or KOK, were pre-meditated. Stanzi was probably given a set of plays to run during a two minute drill and he just picked the plays on the fly during this one.

    How Could Any Football Fan Not See it was Helmet to Helmet?

    Wayne Larrivee. his voice bothers me too.

    if AROB is done...

    I can't imagine that's even a possibility. I thought he had a torn ACL? If that was the case that is definitely an 8-12 month injury. I'm really not positive on what his injury was though.

    KOK Play calling

    Credit to whoever it was (KOK I assume) that came up with the last play, as well as, putting Tony in motion to take the eyes off McNutt to the middle. But I am still shaking my head on some of the play calls KOK threw out there on both red zone attempts. We had second down and a foot to go on...

    3 guys on espn this morning pick MSU

    I feel the other guys just aren't taking the time to get to know Iowa football. Thanks Herbie for sticking with us.

    Smash them in the face from the jump...

    It would be nice, for once, to jump out to a big lead and never look back. Although I enjoy being on the edge of my seat for these games, it'd be nice to relax and show the nation what we're all about.

    Anyone else going to be seriously anxious?

    Definitely not as nervous this week as I was last week but I'm extremely excited to see another night game. I hate waiting until the night time on away games. Hawks 27 MSU 10.

    Who is the best WR in the Ferentz Era?

    Ed Hinkel for sure. His hands were incredible and he was athletic enough to make some spectacular catches/plays. All around a solid receiver.

    #6 team an underdog?

    Personally, I like it when they make us the undeserving underdog. More motivation to shut the critics up. Also, takes off the pressure somewhat because we're not used to being a powerhouse favorite. Plays into our gameplan even more.
