I think Iowa will bounce back and we will see a much better performance next week. And playing the game in Kinnick will definitely help. I think home-field advantage is the decider for this one. Iowa 24 ISU 17

Thank you for that brilliant piece of information. Look a little deeper than the score, pal.
ISU gave up 160 yards on the ground to a lackluster football team, over 5 yards per carry. ISU also allowed a crappy QB to throw for 200 yards. The only reason it wasn't close is because the crappy Tulsa QB threw 2 picks.
You wouldn't know that though because all you care to look at is that ISU only gave up 7 points after the first.
75 of the rush yards were one play. Just sayin.

Perfect justification...also in 2005, isu put up 30+ points on a lesser opponent, ISU proceeded to put up a 23-3 margin on iowa......also in 2002, ISU blew out tennessee tech 58-6 and proceeded to beat the best team in iowa history in the second half alone...you can't use justifications to prognosticate the outcomes.....
It's a home game where Vandy is a different player. That said, if Iowa doesn't get some stuff figured out and hurt ISU in the vertical passing game, ISU will have no reason to not keep 8 men in the box. Iowa has some stuff to get figured out on offense before next week because I'm confident ISU will score a little bit, ESPECIALLY if there is no Lowery and ISU's BFF Castillo plays major snaps.

I think this rivalry gets more and more pathetic each year. what used to be an epic week long ******* match between bitter fan bases has turned into mutual masturbation where nobody is willing to step up and go out on a limb and everyone just nervously downplays their team for fear of being humiliated as they have in the past. for all the crap that gets talked before the season by both teams, it's embarrassing to see both sides curl up in their shells like cowards.
JVB goes Steele Jantz on the clowns and hawks win 31-20.

I predict that isu will win by at least 50 points. They are clearly the Alabama of the big(12-2).
How ya feelin this morn vint?
1 run all day otherwise they ran for less than 3 yards a carry. Tulsa has more talent at probably every position than Iowa minus maybe quarterback.

Fresh as a daisy, Oz. I behaved last night.
We'll see if you are still saying that after Saturday's game. I expect a tough close game. I expect Iowa to pull it out since it is at home, and we play so much better in Kinnick. Should be fun.

Are you trying to say Soldier wasn't a home game for Iowa yesterday?

I have not seen a Conference USA team with more talent on offense than Tulsa. Their running back and H back would start for most BSC schools. Their wide receivers are tall, fast, freakish athletes. Their offensive line is senior laden and very good. Every guy on that offense looks the part. As for their defensive line and corners they have some of the best in their conference. I was even more impressed with this team in person than I was on paper and that rarely happens as every team looks good on paper. This team is going to win a lot of games this season.

It wasn't remotely a home game. There were mostly Iowa fans there, but that doesn't make it a home game. You don't ride a bus four hours to a home game, for one. You don't dress in a locker room for the first time at a home game.
