Yes, I am.
Nick Saban figured out once in a while you got to score 40There are so many clueless Iowa fans
Defense and special teams will only take you so far in this game
It is what it is. On to Wisconsin in Iowa City. Forgive and forget.This was a pitiful performance by the players. Too many mistakes.
I’m thinking reliaquest bowl9-wins tops, get ready to spend your holidays watching other teams compete in the CFP
It gets Alabama or Georgia in10-2 wont get this team to playoffs. Some who give a crap bowl game

Zero chance they get in at 10-2 vs any SEC with same record.It can still be playoff worthy. We need Wisconsin to win tonight, and we need to beat NW. Then we'll be back in the mix.
No, we won't. 2 losses likely finishes a team from CFP conversations. Not to mention that if the selection committee looks at the fact that Minnesota was missing 4 offensive lineman from this game and Iowa was mostly healthy coming in, we are not going anywhereIt can still be playoff worthy. We need Wisconsin to win tonight, and we need to beat NW. Then we'll be back in the mix.
I dont think so. 2+ losses with wins over who, exactly? The Michigan win isn't what it normally would be. Iowa had 2 losses a few years ago with Deacon Hill and was nowhere near the playoff picture going into that conference title game.It can still be playoff worthy. We need Wisconsin to win tonight, and we need to beat NW. Then we'll be back in the mix.

What could be ranked Wisconsin, what will be ranked NW, what could be ranked Nebraska. Ferentz swan song.I dont think so. 2+ losses with wins over who, exactly?

Iowa needed to beat Ohio State or run the table the rest of the way to have a shot.
It does and will again. It wont get iowa in.It gets Alabama or Georgia in

Yep - yay.
they gotta pull their heads out of their arsesProblem is , I’m not sure this team that didn’t show up today has what it takes to win out. NU Wisconsin, Nebraska….illinois even

I have no doubt we will have some close calls, but a "seasoned" fan should know that this team historically improves as the season goes on, especially on offense. Michigan may implode, but I doubt it. You are drastically underestimating how good their defense is. From someone who actually watches the games, you can see that they will likely have the best Dline Iowa plays this year, adding to a great to elite secondary. Then you look at their offesne, some of those throws that Underwood made were NFL ready, that is god given talent. If he had it between the ears, he would be unbeatable with the combination of scramble and arm talent. I don't doubt that this weekend gets ugly, but the rest of the schedule being a pipe dream isn't disingenuous, it's laughable.
Pipe dream? Washington is only tough due to the travel, they have no run game. Their defense is pretty mid in both pass and rush defense. Minnesota was absolutely cooked by Mississippi State a decent team with an elite QB. I will give Wisky props, Joseph can run the ball solidly, but he has an absolute noodle arm. Nebraska, well who the hell knows, they haven't played anyone, and that score against MSU should have been much closer. Debby does have what appears to be a solid. We will have a better idea when they matchup against Indiana.
I wish he had the balls Hayden had and take himself out and let us grow.Ferentz is simply way to comfortable in his position as head coach, and his decisions reflect that.
He doesn'tI wish he had the balls Hayden had and take himself out and let us grow.
KF likes his players, likes head coaching, he has a lot of young players and most will be back, buy a new QB and some OLInemen for next yeari don't think KF hangs it up after this season
Most of them are but I will watch the hawks post season unless they collapsenon-CFP bowl games are getting more & more irrelevant
The hawks had almost a season full of stupid mistakes, penalties, and turnovers yesterday. I dont think we see that again this year in any one game but still need to find yards on first down, yards running the ball. DTackles and up the middle was noted as Minny's defensive weakness but they put a lot of extra players there and we did not adjust with wide throws behind the LOS and wide running plays to find a crease and go. I dont care if our two fastest running backs are in there but sweep them wide and look for a crease and go.they gotta pull their heads out of their arses
As soon as our stock goes up we always **** the bed.Doesn't really matter in this day and age. With the number of teams being admitted to the playoffs and OSU, Oregon and the normal power teams struggling, Iowa pisses a golden opportunity down their collective legs again. It is a Hawkeye tradition.........
We have no money! When you people admit we’re Running this program on MAC conference dollars!KF likes his players, likes head coaching, he has a lot of young players and most will be back, buy a new QB and some OLInemen for next year

Not necessarily. When as a coach, you have a sub .500 winning percentage after a bye week, it's on you.the players are 100% responsible for yesterday's fiasco
Do any MAC teams spend $20.5 million on athletic salaries?We have no money! When you people admit we’re Running this program on MAC conference dollars!
No, they don't.Do any MAC teams spend $20.5 million on athletic salaries?
