    Iowa-Maryland prediction thread

    Hawks get to Brown without using the Raider package...but somewhere in the midst of that, he takes some pretty good hits that limits his mobility. He is very weak as a pocket passer even with the all-world wideout. Rowe likely out (according to the boards) so there is little remaining at QB...

    2015 NFL Draft: Iowa DT Carl Davis is the Real Deal

    Agree completely. Coleman's run plays were almost always misses by linebackers out of position to address the play. He was so fast that they could not recover, but the drawback was being out of position in the first place. Even heard the announcers claiming it was just failure to set the edge...

    Who is all going to the Nebraska Game?

    I am going with a friend I used to work with in Omaha...he is a huge Neb fan and we have been inviting one another back and forth. Great seats right in the middle of that sea of red. I am hoping to see if their hospitality extends as well when they are getting thumped as it has when they have...

    Iowa vs. Michigan Prediction

    Absolutely agree with this. NW should have beaten them like nobody's business, but they let gardner off the hook. Iowa linebackers and dbs will not. Iowa will be conservative and run a great deal...nearly a 2:1 advantage in ToP and will win by about 30-7.

    Michigan has a good rushing defense

    Just a point to perhaps clarify the ranking of Michigan's rush defense. They have not yet played Ohio State and faced that rushing offense, and they have not faced Wisconsin and that one. With those two being among the better in the B1G, I think some of their totals are a bit skewed. All...

    QB Change - The Cheifs setting the example

    May be old news, but the Chiefs Coach Crennel is changing QBs: Looking to shake his 1-5 team out of a rut, Kansas City Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel announced that Brady Quinn will take over as the team's quarterback. "Probably the most impactful move I could make to get everybody's attention was...

    This may have been the worst game by an Iowa quarterback in my lifetime...and I'm 60

    Re: This may have been the worst game by an Iowa quarterback in my lifetime...and I'm Seeing someone win like Stroh has in the limited time he has been there has turned my head. He will be in a bigger college job soon and I assure you his coaching will beat Iowa's *** at some point.

    I told you all that Greg Davis was a terrible hire

    Davis is not the problem...V-berg is the problem. He does not have the skills to execute. If we were to give Davis the opportunity to play the QB of his choosing, I bet we would look a lot diff. I would also bet that we would not longer be seeing V-berg

    This may have been the worst game by an Iowa quarterback in my lifetime...and I'm 60

    Seriously...good guy. Horrible footballer. He does the absolute best he can, but that is so bad that it will not work at all-simply not cut out for the college game. He missed so many open receivers tonight that it was mind-boggling. I don't know what it takes for this staff to make a...

    worst "performance" since when?

    This is the worst game since being blown out in Arizona a number of years ago. I have been proud the last few years of saying that Iowa may lose, but they do not get blown out. I will no longer be claiming that after this fiasco.

    Don't Get All the Love for PSU's Offense

    But...as others have already said, it was against Northwestern's defense. I will give McGloin his due if he can do it against a legit defense, while getting some pressure and throwing to receivers who are actually covered--which was not the case in the drive you reference.

    Don't Get All the Love for PSU's Offense

    I think you are on to the truth here. I watched PSU "highlights" of the games against Navy, Temple, Illinois, and NW. McGloin did complete some passes against these defenses, but to receivers who generally had no one within 5 yards of them. He has underthrown more passes for completion than...

    Dish Subscriber - Need Gamewatch Location in SW Iowa (Council Bluffs area)

    Title says most of what I am looking for...I was unable to get away for the game in IC, so I am stuck at home with no coverage of BTN. Does anyone know a good location in CB area to catch the game...where there won't be a dozen others on? w Don't know who I am more ****** at...Dish or BTN...

    DISH...

    Prior to Big Ten network, I got to see about 3 maybe 4 games on free TV...the rest were radio only. Subsequent to that, I did pay for an ESPN College Gameday package at something like $150 or more annually so that I could see a few more games, but even then there was no guarantee of getting all...

    DISH...

    I went back and forth with a call center rep yesterday and they were adamant that a short term arrangement was in place and that the BTN would be on over the weekend. As to anyone switching to DirecTV...I switched from them to Dish because they were so freaking bad...more outages than I could...

    Have we settled?

    The following quote was taken from Tom Shatel’s opinion column in the Omaha World Herald last Saturday: There's a guy I know. Call him a Nebraska football booster of substance. He'll travel with the team to a road game each year. He'll get the sideline pass. He knows people. Well, I saw him...

    Total headscratcher, Iowa and Nebby vs common opponents.

    Fact is: We did. It is bad enough having to remind those buttknock scUM posters that we did, but I am proud that the guys got up for that one and beat them down for the third year in a row. We have been giving Nebraska crap for a while about living in the past and dwelling on the...

    Big test for Vandy

    Vandy will break out on the road and establish himself this weekend. He will complete the throws all over the field, and will show confidence on the road that we have yet to see. Big game for Vandy and big game for the Hawks. Next week's discussion will be focusing on whether he can repeat...
