If Iowa finishes 8-4, my guess is the Reliaquest (Tampa) bowl. If Iowa finishes 7-5, I am gonna guess the Las Vegas Bowl. Other Big Ten options are Citrus, Music City, Rate(Phoenix), Pinstripe, and the Game Above Sports (Detroit) Bowls.

Over the years I have been impressed with BTN football broadcasts given its 3rd tier status. But that Iowa-USC broadcast has to be the lowest quality of broadcast I have ever seen by the BTN. Especially disappointing if you consider that was probably BTN's biggest game of the year.

Maybe not as big a collapse, but I was trying to think what team was as snakebit as Penn St this year so far: Lost in 2OT to Oregon Lost by 5 @UCLA Lost by 1 to NW Lost by 1 @iowa Lost to Ohio St Lost by 3 to Indiana One team that comes to mind is 2013 NW. NW was ranked #16, then went on a...

It will work itself out. As the competition improves, it will start to become more obvious who needs to be playing. I could see Fuererbach's minutes being diminished as the season progresses. Right now Kylie's experience is her main advantage she has over the talented group of young...

Yes, Niko Medved, who coached at Drake for 1 year before Devries started, then left for Col St, then was hired by Minnesota this last off-season So not only did the Big Ten hire the last 3 Drake coaches, they were all hired by their Big Ten teams in the exact same year.

I think the Clippers have their own place now, a new arena built right next to Sofi. I think the Lakers still share with the NHL hockey team

Yes, the last 3 coaches at Drake are now all head coaches in the Big Ten. What an amazing run.

My main concern is that playing the previous whole game in 40-degree rain can have a draining effect on the body. Throw in a long trip the west coast. Afraid Iowa might not have the energy it takes to play a full game and might let up in the 2nd half. That kind of effort won't be good enough...

But in this alternate scenerio, would Iowa still go for the TD on 4th and goal? In theory the game would be tied 13-13 at that point. Kirk would probably run the clock and kick the FG.

I wonder if the Rose Bowl folks could tear down the old stadium and build a new NFL style stadium in its place. Maybe get the Chargers to move in.

It was really bad timing for UCLA. They essentially signed a new 30-year lease in 2014, 2 years before the Rams announced they were leaving St Louis to build the grand new palace in Los Angeles that became known as Sofi Stadium. Although the cost to break the lease sounds expensive, if they...

https://247sports.com/college/ucla/article/ucla-football-move-from-rose-bowl-sofi-stadium-260786872/ Sounds like it is close to a done deal. UCLA will move its hime football games from the Rose Bowl to Sofi, maybe as early as 2026. This will cost UCLA $60M to $80M to break its lease, which...

That's a great memory you got. I have to admit I had forgotten how close Iowa was another 10-win season and division title in 2018

I am not so sure Iowa will win @USC. But I am more confident about beating Mich St and Nebraska to close out the season. I am thinking 8-4

Iowa has 4 blowout wins and has been in 5 games that were close in the 4Q, in which they were 2-3. Iowa managed to beat Rutgers and Penn St with strong 4Qs, but Iowa kinda blew it in last 2 minutes in all 3 losses against iowa St, Indiana and Oregon. But for some reason, I am not upset...

That might be hard to do if Iowa makes the CFP. Maybe he can announce before the last home game?

I highly doubt that a healthy Jazz would not be in the top 3. Maybe 3rd behind Williams and Moulton, but not 4th or 5th.

Or just announce in pre-season and step down at that time

I have a hunch whenever Kirk decides to retire, he will wait to announce it in June. This will helps the odds they just promote somebody from.his staff to be the new head coach. If it was up to me, if they were to fill the spot internally, I would name Phil Parker the next coach, but it...

I thiught JVB had an overall good season in 2011. Not every game, but overall I would call it a good season. He still had McNutt to throw to in 2011. It was 2012 when everything went to sh!t on the offense.
