It's Game Day, Boys!!!

Agreed and I feel slightly better about our odds in a game like this the way our offense has moved the ball and the fact their defense is struggling as much as ours is. Hate saying it, but can we keep that clock moving and put together a time consuming drive and not be in such a hurry to put points on the board.

Iowa fans: "defense is struggling"

gave up 27 points.

Laugh emoticon (cant find it)

Pavia can jump around all he wants, he’s not playing in the NFL.

He seems like the type of guy you’re going to see flipping burgers with an Uncle Rico name tag

People compare him to Johnny Manziel. People that say that are only comparing attitudes. Manziel put together one of the greatest seasons a college QB has ever had.

4114 passing yards, 37 passing TD's,
1410 rushing yards 21 rushing TD's.
That's 5524 total yards and 58 total TD's.

Diego needs to understand that his 5'9" ass is going to be sitting on a bench in Saskatchewan next year.

I was wondering why Phil isn’t sending some heat.

I was thinking the same thing. If Pavia escapes though, there's no second line of defense. High risk/reward.

"The living legend for the Commodores"? The glaze is almost at a Coach Prime/Sheduer level.

Right away, my wife said, "Lionel Ritchie is playing?"

 

[Hawkboys]

I thought it was a drone at first.

Stevens last game as a Hawkeye... I'm feeling confident.

I'm glad somebody did. In no way could I see that ball going through and that's nothing at all against Drew. Just the way it always seems to work out.

Vonahme. (Sp). MVP with Gronowski close 2nd

We'll all know how to spell it by the time he's done.

Scrolling through twitter, I can't tell you how many different fans/fanbases have Sharar's hit on Pavia posted.

 

[99topdawg]

Have fun going undrafted and working at the car wash Pavia

He lost the Heisman, he didn't get to go to the playoffs, he lost his bowl game.

And to the best part is, he wasn't the best QB in the bowl game...and he played Iowa.

Haha, my wife said the same thing.

Hawks win.
Pavia loses.
Iowa redshirt freshman TE would have outplayed the Mackey Award winner whk sat out.
Nebraska getting hammered.
Inventory at work done.
Got a couple bottles of soju chilling in the fridge. Gonna be a good night.

 

[shonblatt]

Every bowl season, I root for all the Big Ten teams....except for Nebraska.

So F USC for collapsing late and messing it all up.

....and Michigan just threw a late pick as I was typing this

He’ll get arrested in a bar and deported long before the first game. He’s got that “already had CTE for a while” vibe to him.

WTF is that? I don’t drink so I’m not in tune with the fringe stuff.

Those of my generation might remember the movie Little Big Man.

Pavia is now deemed in my household as Little Big Mouth

Even though I started this thread, I really did not anticipate it would become the game thread, so I only checked it once as the game was going. I just read the whole thing and reliving the game through all of your angst, bitching, and vitriol was so entertaining. Knowing that we won made all of your emotional roller coasters enjoyable as hell.

WTF is that? I don’t drink so I’m not in tune with the fringe stuff.

Korean brewed rice drink I think? I think it's closer to beer in the way it is made. But has an ABV of like 17+%.

I took some heat earlier for admitting to watching Korean romance TV. I can't help it. I am totally addicted. I guess I'm just old and these are my Hallmark movies. Only instead of a Christmas tree farm, it's a multibullion dollar business that some disgruntled sibling is trying to steal. And there's usually some violence and real danger, unlike a Hallmark movie. Sometimes even guns and stuff. But, in the end, the star crossed lovebirds find a way to beat the societal norms that would keep them apart and win over the traditional matriarch/patriarch who initially forbids love between two people of different classes. And save the conglomerate at the same time. And then they kiss and the camera swirls around as flower petals swirl down from the trees and the soft Korean pop music song swells. I swoon every time.


So my kids got me some soju for Christmas and took me out to a local place that makes Korean hot dogs. Think corn dog, but with a more pancake like batter. And rolled in anything from Ramen to hot Cheetohs or even sugary cereals like Fruity Pebbles.

Just gonna warn ya on the soju. Looks like a bottle of beer. Tastes a bit like watery vodka and nothing at the same time. Goes down without a fight. But a single bottle is the equivalent of drinking like 3 bottles of beer in terms of alcohol.
