I’ve made fun of Missouri for bailing on the series with the Hawkeyes once the Hawks started getting better. Once you make a commitment, you should just follow through with it. Unless you want your team to think you are a chicken.
Sometimes, though, you have to use a little common sense. It [...]
Let’s say Drew Tate had to sit on the bench this week. I think he’ll play, but let’s pretend he needs another week of rest for a second. And, Jason Manson is going to be the starter. Where would you rank Iowa right now with Manson as the starter?
I would put us [...]
Nothing is better than blowing out a team…if you want to watch a really boring game.
For real entertainment value, sit your starting QB right before the game and watch the next man in struggle. Commit 4 interceptions and force zero turnovers. Commit 4 pass interference penalties between the last drive of regulation and [...]
It is a good thing I am not a gambler after the predictions I made last week. Oh well. At least I’ve still got my good looks.
Fortunately, the only thing I mostly got right was Ohio State beating Texas so I did not wear my sweater vest today. Instead I opted for my humbling Iowa [...]
Let’s do some predictions for this coming weekend:
Iowa vs Syracuse - I’m expecting the receivers to drop a few less passes and for the offense to look sharper than last week against Montana. With Iwebema back from his one game suspension, I’m expecting the defensive line to be even a little more crazy. Iowa 54 [...]

Preason college football is miserable. There is very little press because most people are still watching baseball drag its way to a conclusion.
You end up watching a lot of good teams play a lot of bad teams. The Big 10 went undefeated in the first weekend. There were some classic matchups to [...]
It is tough to really get a read of how good a team is when they play a team that matches up physically as poorly as Montana did. They are well coached and play tough and one of the best teams in Div 1-AA. That does not help much when playing one of [...]
Want some help deciding who I will be rooting for in any given game? Here is my order of priority.
1) Iowa2) Anybody in the Big 10 playing somebody outside of the Big 103) Anybody undefeated in the Big 10 over anybody else. National Championships are good for the league4) Anybody body playing an undefeated team [...]
I normally miss the first couple weeks of Yahoo’s College Football Pick’em. I managed to get signed up in time this year. I’m TalkHawkeyes. Feel free to track me throughout the year and make fun of how poorly I do.
If you are planning on participating, please feel free to join the group [...]
