I wold love for Williams to suit up as a Hawkeye. He may be seven foot by the time he would hit campus. And he can play the perimeter and knock down threes....? Yes please!!! My opinion is that unless Fran chooses to pay for his kids to attend the University of Iowa, Connor and Patrick...

I am perfectly fine with how they won last night. They had an off night and still won by double digits and scored 90 points. Thats a pretty good alternative to the nail biters that have often resulted in losses in the recent past. What is our overall strength of schedule? Top five nationally...

12-0 is unlikely of coarse but it was this year as well. A likely and reasonable argument will be that we will have targets on our back next year that we didn't have this year. Maybe but with all of the trashing we took after we got to about 7-0 this year, I feel good about how the team may...

I do remember the Davis teams. Those teams always where good defensively on the interior but I absolutely remember them leaving the three point line open and getting shredded from time to time by a guy who got hot and they'd just let it rain. God, so frustrating still. Lol. I remember Street...

Thankyou. I guess part of what I am asking is where those teams so talent laden that their stats where all inflated? How good where those teams defensively? How would Uthoff do if he played with that much talent? Do you feel like the current team is as talented overall as any of those teams...

My first memories of Iowa basketball are the Chris Street and Acie Earl teams. As far as all around best player in my memory I would have to say it is Uthoff. Look at the numbers he puts up on both ends of the floor. And he doesn't even assert himself offensively nearly as much as the...

Biggest positives - Lots of experience returning all over both sides of the ball. Biggest concerns - All new special teams in the kicking department. How is the team going to handle the Rose Bowl loss. Having as much game experience coming back on the offensive line is big...

The one and only way to shut ESecPN and the rest up is to win the national title. 15-0 and a win over Alabama is the only way. Anything short of that will rain "I told you so's" for enternity. I don't like it anymore than any other Hawkeye fan does but it's the reality. Ohio State was dumped...

Yes. I want to see Iowa get the screen game and dumps to the TE's going. It's safe to say that MSU is likely going to stack the box against us and we need to be able to beat that. Our offense has found ways to disappear for extended periods and we will not survive a two quarter lapse in the...

I was telling my nephew all morning during the Hawkeye game that I was nervous to play OSU. After watching the MSU vs. OSU game, I'm feeling pretty good. I'm hoping we don't let down next week. Regardless of who we play in the title game, I'm really hoping they continue to to cultivate the...

Again with the Stanford is better than Iowa crap. Who has Stanford beaten that is better than who Iowa had played? USC? They are ranked behind Northwestern in all three polls that ESECPN chooses to list on their own site. USC is ranked behind both Northwestern and Wisconsin in the Coaches...

Last week was worse than this week in my opinion. Jeff Long's comments last week where pretty damning in the national point of view. That point of view relates primarily to those people who do not watch Iowa football and are grossly uninformed regarding Iowa football. His comments this week...

Agreed. I think we roll in this one. Our offense may not light up the yardage but I think our defense forces at least two turnovers that we score from.

Maybe, we shall see. I have a good feeling about Saturday but I also think that even if CJ throws for 300, 4 TDs, Canzeri and Wadley go for 100+ each and we hold Minnesota to 3 points the excuse will be that Minnesota was without their best cornerback and the team is in turmoil due to the...

Georgia Tech and Texas are who he rates our schedule against Notre Dame with? Collectively those two teams are 7-11. WOW. By the way... 1990 we started a home and home with Miami. They where pretty good back then I think. 1996 Arizona. 1997 Arizona State. 1998 Arizona State. 1999...

Well in Alabama's case you don't have to be offensively exciting because they have a nasty defense... Oh wait, we do too

Not to mention Minnesota can't pass. Iowa should be able to load up on the line of scrimmage and our coverage will likely be up the task. I really think the good guys roll in this one. If we do, does the near miss for the Gophers at TCU garner any comparison to a win for our Hawkeyes?

Well, Minnesota could have and maybe should have beaten TCU on their home field. Maybe we will learn something about that logic Saturday. Probably not. Everyone is discounting the Stanford loss to Northwestern because it was the first game.

Since about midseason I have felt like the Hawks where going to crush Minnesota. Tall order I know because of the Gopher defense but I just think that the pounding we took last year at the hands of the Gophers is still resonating within our players and coaches. I want to say that we win by 20+

He's the kind of guy who even if Iowa wins out, makes the final four and then beats Notre Dame in the first round and then takes down Alabama in the title game he still will not shut up and eat crow. Next season we will be over rated in the preseason and Stanford got screwed this year because...
