    Hawks Win The B1G Outright Tourney Thread

    I'll be there with two of my sons. I expect a lot of Iowa fans to be in attendance.

    Is Iowa still a lock for the dance?

    I’m sure we’ll go deep in the Big Ten tourney. I mean, how often do you see Fran’s teams go one and done in the BTT?

    Iowa Big 10 Championship Thread

    I was there this weekend and enjoyed the tourney, although I was surprised at what a craphole Williams Arena is. If they have Kemmerer and a healthy Stoll they could have challenged OSU for 2nd. I thought Lee got robbed; granted he wasn’t aggressive enough in the 3rd but that hands to the face...

    Loved the Win. We just watched 2 Good, but Handicapped Teams Play

    I thought it was a hard fought, albeit ugly game between two pretty good teams with some obvious deficiencies. MSU made more mistakes (penalties, one more turnover) than Iowa and it cost them the game. Definitely wasn't pretty but I enjoyed the win. Tough one to get. That MSU front 4 is without...

    Biggest Case of Sour Grapes Ever

    Mississippi. Last in education, last in per capita income, last in infant mortality. Apparently also last in self awareness. I thought their D was better than ours although ours was damn good. When a team holds you to negative yards rushing they're pretty much kicking your ass. Our QB can...

    It would be a great time to retire......

    Hayden Fry took over a dumpster fire of a program that had been a joke for decades (18 consecutive years without a winning season) and turned it into one that was consistently competitive and respected. Kirk took over an established program coming off a down year. I've said it many times...

    Iowa lost 4 games by 23 points...the rest of the Big Ten

    You have to go to number 8 on that list before you get to a team Iowa managed to beat.

    Howe Column: Hawkeyes Snag Necessary Win in What Has Become a Heated Rivalry

    ^This. Nice to get the win of course but don't get carried away here. Needed a last second field goal to beat a 4 win team at home. More a feeling of relief than exhilaration for me. Nebraska is going to be pretty tough next year. Iowa still hasn't won a Big Ten title since 2004.

    It would be a great time to retire......

    Hall of Fame, lol. Two Big Ten titles in 20 years, none since 2004. Please.

    Beginning of The End for Kirk?

    I think Iowa football stopped being must watch viewing for me after the 2012 season. For the last 5 or 6 I almost never watch. This year the only game I watched in its entirety was the PSU game; I also watched the 2nd half of the Maryland game. Last year I doubt I watched a full 4 quarters of...

    This just became a hollow season...but can still be decent win wise historically.

    Get used to him; he'll be the next head coach. He doesn't deserve to be but he will be. Kirk has everything lined up for succession.

    Official Extend Brian Through 2026 Thread

    I'm not miserable at all. I still follow Iowa football online, but I stopped watching games for the most part 3 or 4 years ago. Ferentz had taken the fun out of it for me. When he leaves I'll start watching again unless his kid gets the job, which unfortunately is probably very likely. I know a...

    Official Extend Brian Through 2026 Thread

    Agreed. This is exactly why I didn't watch the game. Judging by the postgame activity on this board I'm assuming a lot of other Iowa fans joined me.

    No Pinstripe love from PennLive

    My take on the Pinstripe Bowl; zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz This is no joke, I'm not even sure what day it's being played. I don't think I'm alone.

    So what can you say after Drake game?

    It would be hard to find a team that Iowa has a more favorable matchup with than Drake. I'm not sure that game was indicative of anything other than that fact. Any talk of an NCAA berth is ridiculous at this point; that ship has sailed due to their awful start. Plus, I still don't see this...

    How Long does a coach get Part II

    Ah, I remember Adam Woodbury. I also remember how so many on here said he was going to be a solid NBA player some day and show us all. He's currently playing for Fort Wayne in the NBA G league averaging 1.6 pts in 6.5 minutes a game.

    Do Jewell and Jackson play?

    Yeah Kirk managed to pull out that rare great season. The B10 championship game and the Rose Bowl proved them to be pretenders. But still yes, a heck of a season for Iowa football and it didn't last. It was Kirk's only double digit win season in this decade. Want to know how many double digit...

    Do Jewell and Jackson play?

    Nothing. Iowa has lost their last 5 bowl games. Remember the worthless Taxslayer Bowl? Got smoked, what happened? Nothing, Kirk is still here putting up 7 win seasons and losing to dogs like Purdue.

    Stoops offered to come to Iowa!

    This is A+ level trolling. Well done.

    Things better than the Pinstripe Bowl

    A win over Purdue.... because then you wouldn't be playing in the Pinstripe Bowl.
