Indiana

I've been to three games there.

Trust me, there isn't much of a home-field advantage.

Fans come in late, not a big tailgate experience, I've never seen the stadium full, always a ton of Iowa fans there, people empty out early if they're losing, etc.

If we can play well offensively @ Minney, we'll have no trouble doing it at Indy.

Iowa just needs to stop gifting other teams points like they did against Wisconsin and Minnesota.

Exactly, just like the Wisky game the hawk defense had held Minny to 10 earned points (minus the 6 yd TD drive after the pick just b4 the half and the 4 yd TD drive after the sack fumble on Nate) through 57 minutes. When Minny got the TD after the fumble the score was 31-24 and 14 of Minny's pts came on the 2 less than 7 yard drives.

Ten points at that time is great scoring defense.

You are right the hawk offense and special teams needs to stop giving the short field etc.
