lets not forget the game is at iowa city

[codydez]

I have seen a lot of people saying Iowa has no chance next week, but lets not forget the game is in Iowa city. If the game was in Ames we would be in trouble. JVB always plays a lot better at home. Iowa wins a close game 17-14

I've seen no one say, "Iowa has no chance." This game is a toss up.

There are a lot of clowns and unfaithful that see the Hawks getting blown out. I see it as a tough game with Iowa winning in the fourth quarter.

All rational Cyclone fans I have talked to are more confident now than before Saturday but all still think it's going to be a really close game. Iowa is a much better team at home. Iowa State is going to come ready but I think Iowa will be too. It's going to be a good game Saturday, I can feel it! Can't wait!

Home field advantage is big but still going to be good/close game.

How did Iowa State do the last time they were in Kinnick? It's hard to come into Iowa City and wipe that from the memory banks. Ferentz took the pedal off the gas or that could have been a 50 point game, instead of 35-7.

If Jantz can remember what Jersey color he is wearing, this one will be a dog fight.

I look for Iowa to try to control the ball again on the ground and wear them down similar to the NIU game. The question becomes, can our defense play against a much different style passing game. I've heard all the talk about how fast our back seven is...well, I think we are going to get the chance to find out. I hope Lowry can play, but I think you will see 5 DB's alot. Buford gets more playing time.

What does a game from 3 years ago have to do with this game? Most these players weren't even on the team.

Iowa will have trouble keeping up with the speed of the receivers and as for Iowas running game, let me introduce you to Knott and Klien.

Rhoads has done a pretty good job of wiping the bad memories from the players minds. At Texas, At Nebraska, others...

ISU under Rhoads seem to have more mental toughness, if they get down, they do a better job of getting back into games.

Kinnick however is one of the top 5 or 6 toughest stadiums to play in and the record backs it up. Iowa has a young team, ISU has a more veteran team..

Pick em..

Game will be close and will be decided by injuries and turnovers. I am very concerned with the ability of Jantz ability to run and scramble.

those two must not have been in the game when tulsa ran for 180 yards on 21 carries.
