NW 21
Iowa 14

 

[Ben Rumson]

Geeze tk, quit baiting them!

 

[Stanzi]

Won’t be watching today. Can’t handle another letdown. I hope we win but I’m not optimistic on the slightest. Losing to Purdue makes me question whether or not we can even beat Illinois let alone a much better team in NW.

 

[1hawkeye1]

I think Iowa will win, but just barely and it will go down to the final seconds.
Iowa 16
jNW 14

Oh we could have beaten Purdue. We just decided to not target our best player enough and turn an entire game into a teachable moment for a true freshman cornerback. Yeah, sometimes the other team has good players too. That's why you help with safeties covering over the top of corners. Man cover 2 is a thing.

And don't chase points from behind until late.

Iowa will keep it a close game so if Iowa pukes it, Brian can complain about the officiating.

Bowl game for NW, every year. Bowl game for Nebraska, this year. Buckle up coaches!

Hawks are not going to win a close game....we lose those. Win big or go home

 

[99topdawg]

I see we have Jason Baker back as honorary captain. Can he punt today, too?

 

[99topdawg]

On second thought, maybe we should bring back Scott Slutzker every time we play NW to have a debate with Fitz about whether or not it was a cheap shot that broke his leg. He's the left ILB on this play, where his leg snaps:

Operation get Miller to erase his podcast again.

OK. Hawks by a million.

 

[mopkins]

Wisconsin looks like shit so far. They have Taylor and nothing else.

Had Iowa won last week they'd be in the driver's seat. So that feels great.

Looks more like a weak ass leg to me.

I've just always thought it was BS that he felt the need to use this lie as an excuse to get his team fired up for Iowa. Be a man. Do your job Fitz.

Maybe we can start a new tradition for home games against NW. At the end of the 2nd quarter we all wave prosthetic legs equipped with purple socks and old cleats at Fitz as he is headed into the locker room.

When we lose today, what needs to happen for us to still win the west?

Turn in everyone else for recruiting violations or give every team Casey's pizza so they get the runs and can't play.

 

[M1911A1Hawkeye]

Lets go Hawkeyes!!!!

Iowa wins by a touchdown.
