We have Wisky right where we want them...

I hope they leave Meier in there with Hardy....5 man line. We have to dare Stave to beat us...rather than Gordon.

Getting ahead, by double digits, might force them to change a bit...not much tho....they just run., no matter the score.

WE need to win the turnover battle. A pick six or two gives us a shot. that and CJ bombing them deep.

This person had Delta House "right where he wanted them", and we saw how that ended.

Isn't it funny, that the very thing Iowa fans are sick and tired of KF for (playing to win the TO battle and winning field position) is the only chance of beating Wisconsin and Nebraska........Ironic, cause I am sick of it as well, but even I realize this is the only way to win these last two games

Iowa's conservative style plays down to the competition and up to the competition. As absurd as it sounds we have just as must chance to losing to a ISU as beating Wisconsin.

Hopefully the "Good" Iowa team shows up on Saturday.

Then you haven't been watching, because aside from the Northwestern game this is false. They looked damn good against LSU this season.

Oh and as for that 9-9 record that really isn't a very good comparison at all. Here are those 9 losses. LSU(28-24)-Ohio State x2 (33-29) (31-24)-Arizona State (32-30)- Oregon State(10-7) Nebraska(30-27)- Penn State (24-21 OT)- Michigan State (37-31)- Northwestern (20-14) .. Nice Try! Reinforces my thoughts on how much of a challenge this game will be..

No doubt they have had some close losses on the road but 9 - 9 is still 9 - 9. These guys are not the same team on the road and that was my point. Here is another fact, in the last 9 years Wisconsin has only beat two ranked teams on the road, Fresno State 13-10 in 2008 and Iowa 31-30 in 2010.
