Are you kidding me? I dont go on there much, but decided I would read B10 RB article. Wiskey #1, ok I can see that. Mich St #2, alright then, they do have some good talent. Oh St #3, really? Not my choice, but ok. #4 Nebraska.
Now this is where I give up on those retards over there. Rex does not have any depth behind him and that was one of the considerations for the article. Then lets look at Rex, played 14 games with an avg of 12 carries per game!!!! His best game was against IA ST with 20 carries for 129. This all happened in a pass happy conf. I think we all know this just wont cut it in the B10.
Sometimes I think those fools over at espn, just write crap down, they dont even really look at anything.
 


Don't know enough about Nebraska to argue against their ranking, but I don't mind our 7th place ranking. Seems low, sure, but then you remember that:

1) We have NOBODY who has played a whole season at RB, with Hampton, Wegher, and Robinson all gone.

2) We have no proven depth.

3) We have AIRBHG working against us. Coker WILL go down, as will one of our backups. That's pretty much a guarantee for Iowa.

nah I dont mind being ranked low either. Like I said it's more about how they break things down over there or lack of , I should say. Seems there is no rhyme or reason to most everything they write.
I am not so sure, what happens this year health wise. We do have a fairly easy go of it. It's not like we are knocking heads with Wiskey or OH St.
 




^Players can and will get hurt against anyone, not just Wisconsin or Ohio St.
True but there are teams that build to stop the run and we dont have to many on our up coming season. You really think one back can carry 25 times a game and survive Nebraskas up coming games? I am just saying, maybe the rb gods have moved onto Nebraska and Coker can run free.
 


Iowa's backfield aside from Coker is an unknown commodity and for Coker he is virtually unknown outside of Iowa.

This is going to be an interesting position to watch and even more so if Coker goes down.
