Iowa favored by 40

[DDHawkeye]

I know you are a true Hawk fan and I can understand how you feel. You are missing the positives. This won't be like the UNI game. We have such superior talent this year that I could call this game and win by 40. The offensive line is better than last years was at mid-season, Senior leadership is huge, they may no cross mid-field all day. Our return game is one of the best in the country. Our WR's may be the best in the big 10. Robinson will have a huge first half, probably over 100, and the back-ups will roll in the second half. I would be shocked if we were under 30 at the half. This not like an Iowa team that we have ever put on field. My prediction 55-3. Do ya think I'm a homer or what?

I like your prediction, except for the 3 points by EIU. You know we're gonna block all field goal kicks they attempt, right? EIU will not score.
Also, I'm saying Iowa will be leading 35-0 by 12:35pm.

You will have to do with a brand new 46 inch samsung lcd. A 9 year old yellow lab.

With the players we have out Saturday and the new line i just cant see us even putting up 30 let alone win by that. Were going to run alot. Dont forget Ken O'Keefe is calling plays people.

I will actually be surprised if Iowa doesn't have 30 or close to it (28) by halftime.

I have a feeling this game is going to be a lot like the first 2 in 08 that Iowa won over Maine 46-3 and Florida International 42-0.

Everyone knows this team will/could be something special, but the other posters are saying that IA won't run up the score due to the philosophy of the coaching staff. After a two touchdown lead, IA lets their feet off the throats of opponents. No team knows that better than NW. They know how to take advantage of it.

do you think if KOK drew up a gameplan that would allow Iowa to run up the score that KF would give him the green light? Who really draws up the final gameplan? Who listens to the offensive plays and is known to override or suggest? That's what I thought.

Ark St last year. I hope the team learned from those games last year. I also hope that they know if they want to be something special this year they have to put the foot on the throat and keep it.
