Maybe no big surprise as we've always seen the emphasis on the run game with Ferentz but this team wins when they outperform their opponents on the ground. Every game they've won this year they gained more yards on the ground than the opponent and in each loss the opponent gained more on the...

With Ferentz in the cross hairs of some right now I thought some comparisons (using only W & L's / bowls incl.) might be interesting: * Both coaches entered Iowa programs with marginal talent initially and turned things around in a relatively short period of time. By the third year each had...

As has been discussed many times but now a step taken.......... http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2016/10/05/ncaa-division-1-council-proposes-early-signing-periods-satellite-camps-recruits/91627604/

Have made several posts in the last week and they show up as being posted in my profile but when I go to the actual forum it is not shown as being posted.

"At that moment, Davis was in the middle of his 38th year as a football coach, the last 13 of them at Texas with Brown. Until that moment, I had never seen so much as a flicker of his temper. But when I asked him about his fundamental football truths — those principles embedded in the heart of...

Long ways to go but what the heck (includes the ISU game)................ Iowa Hawkeyes: Results, Picks, Power Rankings, Odds & Stats on TeamRankings.com

So we're well into the season. Looks like alot of Kool Aid was being poured and consumed early in the year. We still have aways to go and anything is possible but I'll stick with my 8-4 and my original points of concern. GO HAWKS...

As a Des Moines area resident (Mediacom customer) I noticed last week that ABC chose to carry the TX/OK game and the WI/MSU game was carried on ESPN . Well, the ESPN game coverage was nothing more than their new quick snipits of various games around the country so really didn't get to watch much...
