Iowa -11.5 vs Iowa State

[rchawk]

In college football it can be argued that a strong OL is the most important "position".

(Which is nothing new) for Iowa.

I can tell you this. If Iowa can run the ball, stop the run, have consistency in the punt game, and stay healthy, it won't make a damn bit of difference who the QB is

Players have said before that after the first possibly emotional series on offensive and defense, it gets down to doing your job.

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

Yep, they sure are spiraling. LOL!

Lolol.. golf, track, volleyballl, MAYBE ONE off those sports (mens babasketball), make any money while the rest are a total drain on the budget, Lets see in a few years how many of those are club programs if hey're even still able to field competitive teams....

I believe (could be wrong) FBS football schools are required to have at least 16 total sports. Of course the individual school can decide for itself how much to spend on a sport.

Why I stated earlier they should drop down to the FCS level. Its just funny he's boasting all these sports as successful when all but one are money sink holes and they're talking about revenue....

Yeah. The 85 team would have had as good a season without Long. QBs don't matter.
One of your better takes.

And how would '85 have looked with a crap OL? You have made no point here.

And where did I ever say QB's don't matter? NOWHERE.

Either read better, have the decency to not mischaracterize, or both

I'm trying to remember the 1985 OL. Mike Haight was at one tackle (1st round draft pick), I think Dave Croston was the other. Kelly O'Brien was a guard, famous for getting in the ref's face in the Michigan game and calling TO with :03 left on the clock. I think Bob Kratch was the other guard. Mark Sindlinger may have been the center. Any help from guys with better memories than mine?

I think you pretty well got it. Kratch and Haight had solid NFL careers. Croston and Tom Humphrey made the NFL but didn't stick as long. I don't see that Sindlinger or O'Brien had any NFL stats. It was definitely a very good line.

Does that count the required scholarships?

Good question, anybody know?

 

[BigDelHawk]

This has the smell of a stomping.

ISU is returning 3 starters,,,,,,3. New coach, new assistant coaches (all of them), new schemes. They lost 55 players to the portal. 12 of their incoming recruits that had signed asked for and received releases. Plus, the they have no money to recruit effectively in the portal. This is going to be a beat down.

Iowa 45, Iowa State 7, and only because Ferentz gets a call from the governor to ask for Mercy.

 

[OnlyTheObscure]

Should blow their doors off

"Packing"?

 

[rchawk]

"Packing"?

There must be a big curtain involved.

 

[eyesofhawk]

What's the under?

41.5

 

[eyesofhawk]

Bet the farm on the Hawks in this game!

Don't bet the farm on anything.

Unless you have multiple farms

Low light hawk fans say this every year. It seems to be the only coping mechanism available after consecutive 54 yard daggers.
