7-5?????

[76Hawkeye]

We are looking down the barrel at perhaps a 7-5 season! For those that say no way MN beats us, think long and hard about that one the way these last two weeks have gone!!!!

 

[nationalchamps]

I came on here and predicted 7-5 after the Wisky loss and was lambasted for it. Minny played well today so I'm not looking so silly right about now.

If we lose to MN they'll have to cut away the rope around my stiff body.

 

[76Hawkeye]

Without a doubt MN will be placing emphasis on that game, they beat us.....they will of had successful season in their eyes! OSU next week, might stay home and see what's on Spike TV!

Unlikely. 8-4 will be about the lowest we go. Minny played well, but I don't know if we lose that game. If we play like we did against Indiana, and today against Northwestern, it's not an impossibility, but still.

 

[Xerxes]

Can't overlook Minnesota now, not after the last 2 weeks.

It's a hard fact to come to grips with.

If we lose to Minnesota, you'll find me drowned in pool of my own sh!t.

Given that we essentially lost at Indiana (we sure didn't 'win' that game) we will be virtually 7-5.

 

[rwin03]

We should be a goof loss from 6-6.

If hell freezes over and we do lose to Minny, Kirk might be pressured (at least I hope) by Barta to make switch with asst. coaches! Won't happen, but a man can dream! Ron Aiken at Arizona Cardinals would fit bill for DC! As of OC, I don't know where he would go, as long as it wasn't from state of Maine!

Hell won't freeze over. We will beat the Gophers.

 

[83Hawk]

I predicted 8-4 for this season and it is looking like I'll be right.

I assume Iowa will beat Minnesota...that is, unless they "quit" like they did against Western Michigan in 2007.

Iowa has nothing to play for but pride. Let's see how much pride the players have two weeks from now.

This team seems to play down the other team on the road. Mn is no longer guaranteed, its only a probable win.

Last year was supposed to be an easy win. We scored 12 pts! We had only 54yds rushing last year and 171yds total offense.

There is plenty to be concerned about this game. Minny scores points....they just have trouble stopping other teams (kind of like Ind and NW)

 

[McNutt7gets6]

Hell could freeze over - you ever been to MN at the end of November

 

[76Hawkeye]

People are melting down now, can you imagine what this board would be like on November 28th (assuming we lose to OSU) if we lose to Minny! This thing would crash and this site would be down for days!!!

We are arguably the worst road team in the Big Ten. A loss in Minny would not surprise me one bit.
