Sorry, having ARob out is no blessing...period. We have to win this game,and he is about the best rb in the league right now. It also could mean that his head injury is more serious than first thought and could mean he is out indefinitely. I will not relax until ARob is back in the starting lineup.
Meanwhile, we have frosh rb who runs upright and is going to be a target for defenders trying to put a helmet on the ball or stripping him. Last year Iowa almost lost the ballgame due to turnovers ..in Kinnick. We lost to IU in 06 and 07, and almost lost last year. They have our number lately. We need all hands on deck.
I think this just became a much closer game....hope the Hawks can pull it out. IU is playing for their coaches job and a bowl..they will be ready to go. If the Hawks get behind,look out.
