Hawk fan here. This game makes me very nervous. Iowa needs to score 30 points to win and will need help from special teams and D to do so (they scored 14 against Illinois, offense scored 19). Our scoring D and special teams are excellent. If Nebraska can minimize mistakes and cover kick and punt returns well they should win. Also if Martinez can stay in the game. hawks have had 4 starting qbs either benched for bad play or hurt running with the ball.

Amazing stats breakdown.

Hard to believe Team A has 3 wins and Team B has 9.

OP, can you do a stats breakdown of Michigan State. It is truly dumbfounding how they have even won 9 games this year.

Our Special Teams will spot Iowa 7 off a Return TD or Return Punt and 6+ points from our missed FGs.

I hope Frost just goes for it on 4th because we’ll just miss the FG if we try or worse - get it blocked.
