Miller on Twitter “Iowa right on schedule at 6-6”

[Joshbrown]

6-6 is a safe prediction every year until the Ferentz family is gone. Becuz . . .

 

[hawkijustin]

We will be lucky to get 6 wins. LUCKY!

Bull S**t 6-6, 5-7 this year and 4-8 next! Write it on the wall!

And then he'll pull 9 wins out of his ass in order to either get another 10 year extension or to get his kid the head gig; followed by 4 or 5 more mediocre years... and on and on.....

God I hope not, another ten extension will put me into retirement! Most of my adult life has been ruined by Ferentz!

Love this little guy every time someone posts the meme. Wonder what he looks like today?

Where do we get the 2 wins?

Where do we get the 2 wins?

Exactly. Based on the product the coaches put on the field today after a 2 week preparation, it's realistic Iowa could finish 4-8. Give Matt Campbell this team and Iowa is likely 6-1 right now.

People are going to hate hearing this, but we'll probably get to 7 wins. Here's the part you're gonna hate. The 7th win kicks in a 2.25 million dollar bonus, and the Ferentz' like money more than anything else. The Saint-Ferentz crowd loses their **** in 3 . . . 2 . . .

I would typically agree with you. But I think the coaches have lost this team more so than in most years. As I said in other posts, it's realistic Iowa doesn't win another game this year.

The coaches haven't "lost the team". The team just isn't very good. No one cares about losing bad players. They're just bad players.

If we just set our expectations at 4-8 ish every year then it’s cool if we go 4-8. You know, it’s all about expectations.

Hayden's legacy was raising expectations

Kirk's legacy? Lowering them

And here we will be, cheering on the team. That's what we do. Just like always.

I don't think that will be his legacy.

Those seem like low expectations.

 

[tksirius]

6 wins seems like a low expectation, as well.

Knowing that, would you prefer winning 3 more games, or 2?

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

6 wins seems like a low expectation, as well.

It is. You are correct.

Some folks expected 6 wins this year, I thought 7, maybe 8. But I did think we'd win today, after the first qtr.

Neb is god awful, we should win that one, thats if they still suck by late Nov.. We can beat both or either Purdue/Minn at home.

All depends on the offense. The one thing we've had in the recent past vs. nebby is a power running game. This team does not have that.

We can win all of those games, and can lose them all if we have the offense from the 2nd half today.
