Does anyone know his status? Think he may be our best player on D!

I have concerns. I have seen that we are taking a good practice schedule. I hope that players don't see this as a disappointment. It's the Rose Bowl. If they don't see the opportunity here that would be sad. I am not sending excitement from players or KF. KF on expanding football playoffs...

Who is predicting all black helmets on the field this Saturday? We did it in the past once under Hayden to mourn fallen Hawkeyes, and did a half straight black helmet to honor veterans in the past couple years. Would be an appropriate way to honor Sash I think.

Go to Outback Bowl - Outback Bowl, and cast your vote for Iowa to participate in the 2014 Outback Bowl. Obviously, it is not determinitive, but I wouldn't doubt it if Outback Bowl representatives take a look at the results of that poll when making their decision from the available teams on...

What does it take for a program to go from 11-2 and BCS Bowl Game victory, to 4-8, in two years? It takes a contract that ensures the coach a retirement so that he doesn't even need, or even have to care any more.

Program is completely at its bottom. Conference at its bottom. Coach who is locked in for 8 more years. Wait.... If anyone, anyone, can point to one single thing or other program that would point to anything other than us being the single biggest program failure in the United States, please...

Can't believe I haven't seen a thread on this yet. 14 years, losing record vs. mid-major ISU, 5th highest paid coach in all of college football. Unbelievable. Just unbelievable.

Start from the premise (that hopefully most or all of us can agree upon) that winning a B1G championship as soon (and as often )as possible is the primary goal of the program. If this season isn't going very well, at what point would you begin to give most of the QB playing time to Rudock (or...

Thirteen years of evidence. How much is enough?

Not sure if there has already been a thread devoted to this yet, but anyway... I really think the introduction of divisions into the Big Ten will benefit Iowa possibly more than any other program in the Conference. And it is obvious, but all the program has to do is beat out 5 other schools...

SORRY MY COMPUTER WAS MALFUNCTIONING AND I ACCIDENTLY POSTED TWICE. MY BAD.

If this is true, that we are playing Mizzou instead of Nebraska, let's look deeper. The Insight has a contract with the Bix XII that extends beyond this year. Last year the Insight insulted Mizzou, choosing Iowa State, a team with a worse record and who Mizzou beat. As a direct result, Mizzou...

Okay, still thinking this through. Folks have explained that Nebraska would not be rematched with Washington in the Alamo, but why wouldn't the Alamo select Arizona instead, allowing them to match them with Nebraska, and the accompanied large fan travel and TV appeal? Seems like a more...

Barta says this, yesterday: “The Insight Bowl is not new to our conference, but they stepped up significantly in order of selection and in their payout,â€￾ Barta said. “They also went from the NFL Network to ESPN. The Insight Bowl made a significant step forward in terms of bowl selection...

It's a long way away it seems, but as high as our hopes were for this season, and as much as we are losing to graduation, I like what I see in next year's squad. I'm not saying they're Rose bound, but I wouldn't say it's out of the picture. Defense: Safeties : Sash; Castillo/Lowe/Bernstine...

Assuming we beat Wisky (I know we can't even come close to assuming that, but...) if Iowa beats MSU, and then loses to OSU, and each of these three teams wins all of their other games, all three will have one loss. Who goes to the Rose? It would be OSU, wouldn't it? Rose couldn't take Iowa...

Warning: Kind of a long post: If before the season the gods of college fball said to you, you cannot go undefeated this year, but pick your loss, what team would you have picked to lose to? Then if the gods said to you, okay, pick how you lose? I would have said, we lose to Arizona before Big...

Does anyone know why neither Chaney nor Davis got any touches Saturday? Was there an injury I didn't hear about? Stanzi and Vandy were spreading the ball around to multiple receivers, but I can't find anything anywhere saying that these two were even in the game. I thought the pre-season...

I'm just another hawk fan hoping for glory this season, while holding down the fort on the inside in case of disaster. What did the blackheartgoldpants guy say in anticipation of this season, glory or "f bombs galore"? But to take a step back and look at where we are and where we fit, having...
