Here are 24 minutes of two Nebraska Fans video about "Nebraska is Dead". Paraphrasing now: "We had to consider where Iowa was as a program." Attributed to a former NE Athletic Director. These two fellows are deaf and dumb to the new reality that this is no longer 1995. That paraphrased quote...

I have to respect the work that Oregon has done to be competitive in the NFL light era of college football. They have a creative approach that attracts those easily excited by glitz and glamour. And when they have a hole to fill they go out and fill it. It is a DWAG it DWAG world and hanging on...

After an eternity I witnessed the unheard of on Saturday night in Iowa City. No, it wasn't the fact the police didn't arrest anyone for public drunkenness, but an Iowa QB running through the center of the defense for more than 20 yards, not once but twice. PSU evidently couldn't find any...

Tonight, Arkansas took down Kansas. The great Bill Self and his contingent of top recruits and NIL transfers beaten by another sleaze Jon Calapari and the Razorbacks. Over the course of the next three weeks there are going to be many disappointed boosters that put up a lot of money to get...

Great win over MSU 73-61. Heiden came up big when Steulke had to sit with 4 fouls. Defense created 24 turnovers resulting 27 points.

Net Rankings as of 3-1-2025 I've been following the Net Rankings and before today's game with Wisconsin Iowa is at 27. What I have a problem with is UConn being ranked #1. UConn has an 11 - 3 record against Q1 and Q2 teams. It is 5 and 3 against Q1 teams. It has only played 14 games against Q1...

I've posted multiple times that Iowa's Men Basketball Team biggest weakness is that it has no upper class compared to the competition they play. It really comes down to the senior class. Here are a few comments about the prominent players: 1. Payton Sandfort's overall field goal percentage made...

If statistics are for losers, call me a loser. I’d like to shed some light on those that puff out their chest with pride over the overall win total of their favorite football team. Our friendly foe just across the Missouri river frequently points to their team’s great success being among the top...

I'm glad that it is. I think this season has been a continuation of the Brian Ferentz era as offensive coordinator and quarterback coach. While Tim Lester made some noticeable improvements Iowa is or was still hung with his recruitment choices at the QB position. I was optimistic that C...

Florida Roster Plan If I understand the new Roster Settlement Iowa will have to shed some members of the team starting with player 106. Of course those that used up eligibility will be leaving, so that will accomplish some of required reduction. I'm sure Iowa can count on some players going...

The Iowa Football Program won it's 700th game on Saturday according to Winsipedia website. The period from the mid 60s to 1979 really affected the overall record.

I'm starting this thread to track how current Hawkeyes are doing in the WNBA. I'm really tracking Indiana and Las Vegas, but you never know another Hawkeye might get picked up. Anyway. my two cents worth about The Fever vs the Mystics and the Aces vs the Sparks. The Fever beat the win less...

I'm inclined to say no. Other than the money factor for the game isn't being in the playoffs enough? If multiple Big Ten teams make the playoff then just pit them against each other in the playoffs?

I'm not going to provide a link to CF website, but there is a fair amount of butt hurt about it and also some rational perspectives. The prospect of the ACC breaking apart and high profile teams likely headed to the SEC and B1G will make these two national conference. AD Beth Goetz probably has...

Dennis Dodd - CBS - sec-big-ten-developing-plan-to-share-revenue-with-players "The model being discussed by college sports' top conferences could go a long way toward settling outstanding lawsuits" . The impact of revenue sharing will have a major impact on what institutions will be able to be...

I'm intrigued by what the future of revenue college sports will hold, particularly for the Big Ten. I also have an interest in how things will shake out for the ACC / Big XII members. In my effort I gathered data from websites related to memberships, facilities, football attendance, football...

When the pairings came out it was somewhat universal that Iowa, as the 2nd number one seed, got the short straw in terms of difficulty. The Portland 4 region where Texas was the number one seed proved to be the weakest of the 4 regions. Texas by far had the easiest path to the elite 8. Based on...

I'm still upset with the tactics that West Virginia's coach employed on Monday night. He harmed to the growth of women's basketball by turning it into a turnover foul fest on the national stage. He is another Bob Huggins coach from West Virginia. As an older sport fan I remember a number of...

Iowa is past the half way mark for the 2023/2024 basketball season. A review of the team statistics really explains why Iowa is below .500 in the conference and has no quad 1 wins. The team could improve as they have 3 of the 4 most difficult games out of the way based on current standings. When...

01-10-24 Purdue vs Nebraska - Nebraska shot lights out in this game and Hoiberg used zone in this game and got away with it. Edey got pounded in this one. The refs let a lot physical play go on in the paint area. Nebraska has a lot of older players that are very physical. 01-11-24 MSU vs...
