Everyone except Ferentz gets a B. They are doing exactly what they are told to do by the HC. The HC on the other hand deserves no better than a D-. However, if I dwell upon the two losses to Minnesota the last few years, I could easily give KF an F.

Persa is a living nightmare for Iowa. He is use to beating us and no matter how the game unfolds he will always feel he can bring his team a victory over us. As stated, he will have all day to throw. No, Norm won't blitz more than a few times, and that won't happen until we are down by 14-17...

Why do we have meltdowns? Because its fun. It fulfills our lives. Just as living vicariously through a bunch of 18 - 22 year old football players does. In that vain, and only beacause of that, I will continue. CC, what drug are you on? Please pass the syringe my way. Get real dude...

I made a post along this line a few days before the Pitt game and was pilloried by the people on this site. The OP is absolutely correct. The OP and my earlier post are (were) vindicated by what was done on Saturday and by simply observing, objectively, what this team is capable of and not...

Just my opininon (obviously). I am over the ISU debacle (sort of). Time to move on. So, what, if anything, do we have on this team that is most likely to be unstoppable in the game of college football? The answer as I see it is in our WR's and TE's. Pass the ball 75%+. Basically FORGET the...

You folks are looking at the wrong side of the ball. After Saturday's debacle, there is little more evidence that needs to be presented that we have absolutely the WORST offensive coordinator in major college football.

He'll be a stud in a year or two. This year is going to be a learning experience. But I like his speed and nose for the ball.

I believe Bullock is the real deal. I've thought that since seeing his HS tapes. He can go inside or outside. Given the fact he started the first play of the year on offense, even our coaches have to be feeling this kid has something. Next year I could see our backs being McCall, Bullock...

When you lose ugly to the worst team in the B12, it rattles your faith. Pitt 27 Iowa 14

I don't see an additional 15 yards per kickoff coming from the young man shy of steroids. I realize that Doyle and company can do some pretty impressive things with hulking big linemen, but I have yet to see anything remotely resembling that kind of transformation from any of our kickers in the...

BTNDaveRevsine Dave Revsine by HawkeyeReport Back on the bus after Iowa practice. They are young, but very talented. Ferentz really spoke highly of young RB's. Howard liked McCall I like this one!! I sure hope McCall comes up big for us this year. To have a second big powerfull running...

I see kicking as our biggest Achilles heel this year. I believe we will be solid on offense (barring injury) and reasonably solid on defense (thanks to Norm's return). The O and D together should keep us close in most all of our games. However kicking abilities play such major role, often...

You hit the nail on the head here. I took my 11 year old daughter to the Mich St game last year. Overall it was a great experience except for a drunken MSU fan yelling obscenities, etc.. Even his buddies were embarassed of him. Anyway, I don't want that atmosphere for my kids, nor quite...

Sorry, you can't turn a 5.33 into a 4.6. Ain't no way. 5.33 is way too slow for Big Ten football.

........... Quicksand At first glance this appears to me to be a poor choice of high school athlete to expend a football athletic scholarship on. He may be a great kid and all, I am not saying that he isn't. And maybe there is more going on here than meets the eye - perhaps we are after...
