This is sort of expanding on the Miller and Deace podcast. Looking at yards per attempt, probably the best measure of how effectively a team runs, Iowa hasn't been in the top 50 since 2008. Iowa was in the top 50 five times from 2001 to 2008. What changed? Maybe the RBs were better in those...

Purdue +15 vs Iowa. Michigan +8 vs PSU (penn state favored). I thought the PSU spread would be closer. Clifford looks like a turnover waiting to happen to me. That spread is almost exactly equal to Sagarin 7.97.

Jon Miller puts 15 on the Iowa Hawkeyes to win. I like it. Deace puts 8 on Iowa.

Penn State favored by 2.5 to open. http://www.vegasinsider.com/college-football/odds/las-vegas/

It looks like AJ Epenesa and Amani Hooker made the 1st team all Big Ten, media and A. Nelson 2nd team. Also ISM 1st team All BIG special teams. http://btn.com/2018/11/27/here-is-the-2018-all-big-ten-football-defense-special-teams/amp/

Just read on the Husker board that Phil Parker is interviewing for the Ole Miss DC job for twice the salary. Not sure if true... Regardless, I’m thinking this is the coach we can least afford to lose.

Iowa is still the highest and only ranked team in the West even with almost no chance to go to Indy. Iowa State #22.

Iowa is initially favored by 10 against the division champ Northwestern Kitty Cats.

PSU -5 is the opening line. Sagarin shows Iowa #9 and PSU #10 and PSU favored by 2.5 since they’re at home. Iowa is 6-1 against the Vegas spread so far. Here are the remaining games per the most recent Sagarin; Purdue +3.5, NW +16, Illinois +25.5, Nebraska +20.5.

Iowa is an opening 13.5 point favorite. This is the 1st game that the Vegas spread is slightly more than the Sagarin spread so maybe Vegas is starting to warm up on Iowa. Iowa is 5-1 against the spread and only didn’t cover against Wiscy. Btw, Sagarin shows Maryland +12.5, PSU -5.5 and Purdue...

Here's a stat, yards per attempt rushing, that really needs to improve if we want to see better results on offense. Iowa's average rank going back to 2008 is 72nd compared to Wisconsin at 27th. I don't follow it that much anymore but, last I checked, Iowa puts about the same number of OL in...

Iowa favored by 3 in the opening line.

Just listening to HN podcast and Deace is right. Iowa needs to self-scout. There are things we do, I believe, that teams have picked up on over the years and gained an advantage on us. We may not even realize it. A good poker player never gives away your tell. For example, I think teams may...

Just listening to Rick Neuheisel on the radio and he was talking about watching practices for Washington State. He says Mike Leach only has 7 pass plays and 3 run plays. They practice each play for entire days at a time and only one play per day. He said he initially thought it was crazy but...

That’s the early line in Vegas. Sagarin has Iowa rated 13th and Wiscy 14th and Iowa a 3 point favorite at home.

Just listening to the CF Iowa game podcast with Jeff Woody because I just like to hear what they're saying about us. Actually it wasn't that bad. A good portion was about Iowa. Here are the cliffnotes; Eppy will be a 1st round draft pick, probably next year. He almost guarantees it. A...

It looks like the Northern Illinois LT is pretty highly regarded as an NFL draft prospect. Didn’t realize this. This site shows him as the #1 OT for 2019 ( in pass protection). To me it makes the 5 sacks, and especially Hesse’s and AJEs performances even more impressive...

Sagarin has Iowa #17, not sure how that's figured with no games played. Maybe something to do with recruiting or returning starters, not sure? Anyway, Iowa State is #59 and if we played this weekend Iowa would about a 14 point favorite at home. It's usually within a few points of the Vegas...

in recruiting (team ranking #29 vs #32 per rivals). This is including Calloway to. Let's see a 12-0 regular season, brand new facilities, 16th in NFL draftees over the last 10 years, 5 top 10 finishes in 15 years, top 15-20 in athletic revenue nationally and freaking ISU is beating us?!! JHC...
