ISU -3.5
Ok…then good for us, I guess. ADs “eff” up hires all the time. What’s the odds Iowa hires a better coach, the 1st time out? Tough question eh? Your fandom won’t allow you to say that there is a very good chance they’ll hire a better coach. There isn’t anyway and we know from a national... -
ISU -3.5
Everyone looks at other teams and says if “this” was us, I wouldn’t care. Yet as you said, their fans, much like Iowas fanbase, has wanted their coach ousted many times over the years… That’s more of an indictment of the fickleness and short sightedness of said fans… You guys have had a train... -
ISU -3.5
BYU/TCU/Baylor/KU/Cincy will all have spreads that are under a TD unless something major changes. Ridiculous, Texas should be number one until proven otherwise but their number is to high. TT, TCU, Baylor and Okie St are way to high. BYU, Kansas, ISU & Cinncy are way to low. I think SMU... -
ISU -3.5
Very sound reasoning and I concur. I’m also not ready to write your season off. I’m not convinced the Big10 nor Big 12 (who is really, PAC 12 ??♂️) are all that strong…. That defense will keep you in every game. It would be nice if you had a consistently solid return game, and some turnovers... -
ISU -3.5
24-3 ISU…..mark it down and make it so. OSU is poor and Iowa St is better than their resume. Ohio was a good team, I believe a 10 win team that The Clones should have beat but didn’t. I don’t envision The Cowpokes getting 200 yds…as long as the team hasn’t quit -

Long term implications
Right, and yes they recruit well by rankings, but they have 29 players in the NFL, which is a solid number, but not like the B1G boys! 14 of them defenders. I’d wager OU under Venables will eventually play better D. But you want to hear an amazing stat. They have 33 current NFL players, but... -
Long term implications
Top 5?! Now I get there’s a difference between talent as in future, NFL players and team defense?! But who are the four other teams that have better defensive talent right now? -
Long term implications
Yes, I get the concept, thanks…DOH!! But Knott, (thanks for reminding me) and Klein were fantastic LBers at the same time and if memory serves Klein ran a 4.66, extremely fast at his size (yet there were questions about his athleticism LOL) and was code. Defensive player of the year is junior... -
Long term implications
Meh…I you have st least 2 Rbers I like a lot especially the freshman from Iowa?! Where’d he play high school Sama. ? And your TEs have some skill. -
Long term implications
I don’t know, AJ Klein was a hell of an Lber and played many productive years in the NFL. I can’t remember the name of the other kid that played at the same time, who honestly had even better college numbers, but flamed out in the pros. And I would’ve been pretty young then, but if memory... -

Tampa IS an NFL player for sure. That defense is building good talent! -
Long term implications
Meh….fans always want some sort of magical “scheme” change that is going to fix everything. Doesn’t typically work like that. They need to figure out how to make what they “do”, work better, because it can and has! -
Long term implications
I know it’s a rough morning for you fellas, but there are a couple ISU fans that I greatly enjoy interacting with on the old Hawkeyereport site. One of them was musing about lost opportunities and it being a bad year to be struggling because college football is wide open and there’s a lot of... -
Can Someone tell me why...
Nice try…but not really. You said he flamed out in the NFL clearly not true. Nice attempt to deflect though -
Can Someone tell me why...
Well thankfully Georgia only had a week to prepare for tOSU… probably why it was so close. WTH?! Look nothing personal but the reasoning people use baffles me. -
Has the Rot Started to Set In?
This is a $1 billion statement. Vans and Ohio State wanted fired after the Indiana game that they won 23 to 3. People are freaking crazy…. It’s all relative… After you’ve won X amount of times over a couple seasons, not only is it criminal to go backwards, you basically have to always be... -
Can Someone tell me why...
Here’s why….42-41, Georgia gave up 467 yds and 41 points, they gave up 30 to LSU, and then 20-22 3 other times. They had an awesome defense… Ohio State was clearly & far away the best team they played all year. I said it, and then they made it true! -
