Michigan @ Minnesota on Saturday

[Ripcord]

Normally I would pick Michigan easily, but from what I understand of the injury report, they have an OL out and a DL, and Jordan Marshall is supposedly not100% also. that receiver Marsh who got 100 yards against us is questionable, which probably means he is out.

Minnesota does not look that great, but they are at home, and that DE should worry about every one of their opponents.

I suppose I would still take Michigan, but probabl a lot closer final score than if Michigan was at full strength.

 

[PinkShizzle]

Ya never know. I didn't figure Minny would go to Washington and win last week but they did.

 

[SoonerBeAHawk]

It'll be a warm up before the Hawks play. I hope Michigan throttles them.

Yeah we want every one of our future opponents to lose hard and by a lot, get them to lose their spirit. Never wishing for injuries though

Not happening to the purple kitties on their new field. The PSU cyclones get blasted by the kitties. NW looks for real, and Campbell may be in trouble after 5 weeks.....

 

[Iron Doc]

Can BOTH Michigan and the Rodents lose tomorrow?

I said after PSU lost that lead and lost to Wisky that Campbell and his ISU players were used to playing kiddie ball in the Big 12 where defense is optional and players hand tackle, not even arm tackle, but hand tackle. PSU is soft, I watched the first half tonight and the PSU defense was a sieve with holes a mile wide.

If only there was a dumpster they could toss him into.

Fleck every time the focus should be on his team…

Michigan was slow to get going but something tells me they pull this one off

 

[Hurricane88]

Like I've said, (10-2 Iowa CFB Playoff thread) Minnesota is under rated. They are better than they appear. Future NFL QB and RB on the team and one of the better defensive lines in the conference IMHO. Nestor is one of the best CB's in the conference if not the whole nation. This team should not be taken lightly. Iowa's (easy schedule) doesn't appear to be so easy. Northwestern and Minnesota both on the road on the schedule for Iowa.

Yeah kind of surprising still 7-7 game

 

[r_desihawk]

mn was grinding down mi and they throw the rz pick six…
michigan looks like 2021-23 iowa.

 

[ottumwan in tx]

44 needs oxygen after that!!!

It is pj payback

 

[Anon1750875978]

I hope Parker is watching.
Lindsay has made two terrible throws under pressure for interceptions.

The issue is I don't think Phil trusts his defensive backs to blitz our linebackers.
Meanwhile, Underwood looks like shiit today.

 

[r_desihawk]

a lot teams (mi and mn for instance) appear to have decided that kirk ball is best ball

14-10 3rd qtr looks like Iowa score

 

[r_desihawk]

underwood played like vince young against iowa but against mn he is deacon hill
maybe we’ll get to see not a fair catch part 2 at end of this game

 

[ottumwan in tx]

Styrone Stacy little bro can play

The 3 game stretch starting with Michigan is really tough and all the talk has been how easy the rest of the schedule was going to be playing all the old B1G West teams....the more I watch them I think those games are far from locks and most will be tough games

Agreed. They generally are.

 

[r_desihawk]

this game is quite enjoyable
michigan offense i think has about 4 plays in the last 40 or so plays and they are still up on the score board just with defense that has to be totally gassed.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Another INT for Underwood.

Thought they would rally after losing to us.... Instead they are a dumpster fire

 

[AFM22]

3rd straight turnover.

Minnesota doing what I hoped Iowa would have. Underwood is solid when he gets no pressure...put the heat on him and he makes a lot of mistakes.

 

[Mitch122_rivals]

Michigan sucks. Today could be ugly for us.

 

[IowaCityLit]

Michigan isn’t very good are they? Doesn’t bode well for today. Was hoping that would be a signature win that holds up throughout the season. Ugh.

 

[DuddyB]

These former big 12 coaches are finding out how overrated their conference was.

 

[DuddyB]

It’s a long season. Just win and everything will take care of itself. If we beat Northwestern, Wisconsin and Minnesota, those games will look pretty good.

 

[Rambler Hawk]

Just turned on the game, yeah if Minny wins it definitely cheapens our win....(still an all-time exciting win for our program nonetheless)

Good point. Those games suddenly look huge on many levels

Michigan is a mess right now, getting run on, turning it over, some key penalties, not running it well against Minny. It is now a bit bad that the hawks had so much trouble running the ball last week but you mentioned a Mich Dlineman might be out which is where Minny is attacking

 

[Rambler Hawk]

Hoping for a 21-20 Final...

 

[r_desihawk]

i agree that the mi win doesn’t necessarily suggest we are any good but the one good thing is that at least we know that brown won’t always crumble under pressure and can stay poised on the road

 

[HuskerTherapist]

Michigan looks like a shell of itself from last week.

 

[eyesofhawk]

Minnesota doing what I hoped Iowa would have. Underwood is solid when he gets no pressure...put the heat on him and he makes a lot of mistakes.

And your hope didn't end up meaning much, as Iowa won

 

[HuskerTherapist]

This is what the ANF guys were talking about with Underwood he’s a one read guy and when that goes away he’s gone. It didn’t show up too often last week but it’s in full force today against Minny.
