    Who else is tired of coach talk?

    If your 'goals' don't align with your bosses 'goals' you won't be around for the long haul. Doesn't matter if you are talking the real world, or the sports world.

    What Goals left for 2021

    Now can officially say no Conf Championship. What an unbelievably sad season. CMC and team built up the hype and fell flat on their face this year. Something very off with this team - I am simply not sure if the coaching staff is going to learn or take something from this season. Were fairly...

    Moved to MN. Interesting observations

    As a person who grew up in MN I will give Iowa huge credit for having delicious beef and pork. I did not know what good meat tasted like until I moved down to Iowa and I used to bring back a cooler full everytime I would go home the first 10 yrs or so. The pork chops and steaks I ate going up...

    Moved to MN. Interesting observations

    You need to cut them a little slack about their attitudes about Iowa. The main exposure they get r Hawkeye fans coming up games and doing things like tearing down a goalpost and trying to get it thru a revolving door or going at it in a public restroom. Also used to see a ton come up to fish...

    Moved to MN. Interesting observations

    Both of you r a riot. I am from MN but moved down here 20+ yrs ago and would love to get back. Minnesotans (at least a majority) don’t care about saying the pledge of allegiance daily, don’t want everyone and their brother carrying handguns, respect gay marriage and LBGTQ community, care about...

    What Goals left for 2021

    Now that the Clones dropped their 3rd game of the season, what goals are still realistically attainable for this team? Beat Iowa - Nope Go Undefeated in Conf? Nope New Year’s 6 or CFP game? Nope Conf Championship? Nope Win Bowl Game? Yes, but only mid tier bowl. Serious letdown for a team...

    SUCKTEMBER: Matt Campbell Teams not ready to start the season.

    Honestly I think the only reason for this season is 5&6. I throw 7 out the window everytime - there is plenty of 'tape' on UNI/IOWA to go off of from the previous year(s). As for the rest, did not see a ton of new faces so 1 is out the window, 2 should be a non-factor as everybody returned and...

    SUCKTEMBER: Matt Campbell Teams not ready to start the season.

    I could buy this argument from the staff if this year would have been a normal year and we only returned 12-14 guys (takes a bit to gel; real problem against Iowa has been Purdy and turnovers + ST). However we basically returned the whole team - should not need time to gel. Everyone had seen...

    Did the high expectations kill this season?

    Pope - 19 times out of 20 I would agree with you that each season is a process of starting over and building. The reason for that is generally a team loses several key players from the previous season and the 'new' players/starters need to gel with the returners into a cohesive unit. I truly...

    Did the high expectations kill this season?

    Honestly I am the exact opposite. I have been very understanding of 'The Process' up til now, but feel much worse after hearing CMC comments after the game and this week. You say we should judge the success of a season at the END. Well the 'END' of last season was a Fiesta Bowl win over a...

    ISU -33 vs Kansas this weekend

    Well we certainly aren't 'better' than last year. In fact at this point we are worse than last year. We will beat Kansas, but doubful by 33+.

    Purdy.....

    Well it can be pretty tough to get open when your QB does not have a strong enough arm to throw accurately beyond 20 or so yards. The short routes are usually the area for TEs and RBs. Hutchinson is a quality receiver but is a deep threat and Brock simply does not have the arm to hit him with...

    Purdy.....

    LIke I said - we had a back go for 190 so rushing was not the issue. Line played OK if we had a back go for 190. On the passing game side, we had 263, but 65% of those went to TE and another 20% to our back. Literally 15% of our passing yrds went to WR. TE are Brocks warm baby blanket. I...

    Purdy.....

    We had a back go for 190 yrds and a defense give up only 24 pts (and only 3 in the second half). What more do people expect? ST and Purdy were the problem yesterday and have been for most of our losses the last 3 yrs.
