Chill everyone

[Hawkfan_08*]

Dang everyone. It is week 1.

I totally get it, we have been watching the same movie over and over but we have to give this squad a chance.

It certainly wasn't good, by any means, but there was some bad football this weekend.

ISU has a huge leg up by playing in their third game. They have a great understanding of what is and isn't working. I'm choosing to believe that our defense is better than KSU and SD. I also am choosing to believe we won't look THAT bad again on offense.

 

[ESMDHawk]

Great that you’re optimistic. But as you said, we’ve seen this same movie over and over. We’ve also heard the same excuses over and over. And seen the same result over and over. And it hasn’t been pretty.

[paednoch23]

Clowns have 2 games under their belt. They seem to be pretty good this year. They have an excellent QB. They have early season momentum. Iowas D doesn’t look good. Our QB play is terrible. This is the first year in 35+ years that I expect Iowa to lose. Knowing the Clowns are clearly better team the sting of losing to them the sting wont burn much for me. Iowa will need the entire season to get their legs under them. If the Clowns blow Iowa out Hawkeye fans will be calling for our 70 old coach o hang it up. If the season tanks I can’t see us going forward with Kirk. Many have been saying this for 5+ years.

I get it. If Iowa wins this game I will consider it the biggest win for Iowa in this series since resuming. I would call it a significant upset. That said, the Clowns having 2 games under their belt is the deal breaker for me.

 

[Clone2]

You guys will still beat up on the bottom half of the BIG, get to 8 wins and give Kirk an extension. Rinse and repeat.

Not even that optimistic. Just not willing to give up on them after 1 game.

Ah, the Clone perspective. 1) Kirks not getting another extension, certainly not anything more then a year, and Barta is not the AD anymore. 2) The whole looking down at Iowa from you clowns. Lolol.. Remind us again of all the conference championship you've won in over 110 YEARS and major bowls played in? I'd wait for your response, but the silence is too much....

 

[Kceasthawk@77]

This. How crappy it must be to go through life with such a defeatest attitude. And for the record, YES, we have seen this movie before, and you'd have to go back 25 years since it led us to a two win season and almost 200 wins since. But, I'm sure those folks are right and Kirk, the coaches and players will just give up and stop doing their best to improve each week and move forward. Until the day I see that happen I'll keep a positive attitude...

I think this is Kirk’s last run at something special. It’s not going to happen.

Why is it that Squawk fans are now playing up ISU, significant upset you say, when a couple of weeks ago, ISU was garbage and the squawks were a playoff contender? If the squawks win, it will be because ISU turned the ball over and allowed you to get easy scores. If that does not happen or the TO margin is within one, ISU will win easily. Outside of a couple guys on your OL, ISU is better at every position, QB, WR, TE. I would call the RB a wash. On the defense side, the DL look about equal, ISU is better and deeper at LB and both back ends need to improve. Neither special team as an edge. The only stat you are better is the one we keep hearing the most, the Squawks have won the last four in a row at JTS, which means nothing when the teams meet on Saturday, just like the ISU win last year in IC means nothing.

Assuming that you have a brain you know the answer to your own question. They're called FANS. Short for fanatics. They saw ISU's first game and saw cracks on their game. Then week two at home a much better performance. Iowa plays game one and the QB everyone pins there hopes on does poorly throwing the ball. Doom and gloom. No kidding. The question is just how much will Iowa improve from game one to game two, not only like ISU, but what would be considered normal progression. Does MG look much better? Does Lester put Brown in early if he doesn't. Does Iowa do just enough passing to keep ISU on their heels. Frankly you may have more questions about the game then we do. We already know what you are, at least more than you know just what shows up in Trice from the Hawks. I'd step back on the "ISU wins easily" stuff. Show me the last time ISU won easily over Iowa. Iowa WILL show up Saturday, even if they have to make it a messy dog fight, I doubt your going to "win easily".

I can't imagine going to another forum and lying as much as you do. There was a debate on whether we could get back to the playoffs, and there are arguments for both sides. But absolutely no one was saying we were a shoe-in for the playoffs. The only way for Cocksucking Clown narratives to work is if you lie, so it's no surprise you're full of ****.

The only positions the Cocksucking Clowns are better than Iowa in are QB and WR, but so is every single school in America, so that isn't much of an accomplishment. Iowa will always beat you in line play, always. We have better players, a better strength and conditioning program, and better position coaches. There's a reason why we're a factory for OLine and Dline to the NFL every year, and why all the Cocksucking Clowns are blowing their collective loads on one dude for the first time in years in the big orange or whatever stupid nickname you gave him.

You say the RB room is a wash because you know how much better our guys are than yours. Iowa has a better defense and a miles better Special Teams. Congrats, your kicker kicked a long field goal. Welcome to the club. We're also returning the Returner of the Year in Wetjen, and we have our punter Rhys Dakin, who is already projected to be the best in the B1G. It's a top 3 special teams unit, and it's not #3.

The reason for the change in tone is because we didn't expect Mark to be so inexplicably bad that he's unable to throw the football. So once again, our pass game must be completely taken out of the equation. Luckily, you had a bad run defense again this year, so the Hawks should be able to run over the Cocksucking Clowns again like we did last year on the ground. This time Lester won't go full retard and try 3 pass attempts in a row in the endzone again.

The biggest difference between our programs is that we can operate without a QB, you can't. If Rocco is shaken or taken out of the game, your team is effectively finished. As much as I hate to say it, I think the Cocksucking Clowns will win this year. Mark won't drastically improve in time for the game and Rocco will give just enough to our bad secondary to win a close one. Lester is still in rebuild mode, so it'll take some time before we finally get out of the hole that dipshit Brian Ferentz left us in. So enjoy it while you can.

Here’s the reality check, Clown: Iowa’s in the Big Ten, the most powerful conference in college football. The money, the media, the resources — all flow into Iowa City whether we go 12–0 or 6–6. You? You’re hanging by a thread in a conference praying not to get absorbed or left behind. I see things from the big picture. You guys are screwed in due time.

 

[LaQuintaHawk]

I fully realize you're trolling, but just so we're clear, there will be no more extensions for Kirk ...not without a national championship anyway.

How does ISU have more questions than the squawks? We went overseas and beat KSU, then played the 5th ranked FCS team in SD and after the first couple of series it was not a game. The starters were out in the middle of the 3rd quarter. The Squawks struggled for a half with one of the worst teams in the FCS. Becht had more yards on this first throw from scrimmage than your guy did the entire game. You wore down a below average team in the 2nd half, that will not happen this game.
Unless you get multiple turnovers this should not be a close game, I get its a rivalry game, the only group that you can say is better for the squawks would be the offensive line, but you also lost your starting RB in the game, and he is not listed on deep chart for Saturday. Becht will be the difference for ISU, he is a special player, being at home this should be over starting the 4th quarter as the Squawk fans are exiting the stadium.

Reality check squawk, you are about to get rolled this week and will struggle to reach 500 for the season. You have a 70 some year old coach that is going to bleed out the contract and then may even want a few more years when it's over. You overspent on a poor QB, have one of the worst WR rooms in the country. It's not a blip but a trend, keep talking about cashing checks while you struggle to win games.

That's a pretty risky prediction given Iowa's recent history of going into Ames and, gasp, winning. Against favored ISU teams. What's your score prediction? Want to put money on it?

Can you actually read? Good Lord. I said the first game we played may have nothing to do with how we play in game two. That happens very often. Hence you may still not know exactly what Iowa will be capable of. So you may have more questions then we do. We know what you guys do well. I'm not sure what you saw from QB1 in game one will be indicative of his play going forward. does that help or do I need to type slower?...

OL - great

TE - good (just didn't get targeted enough)

RB - great

WR - who knows as didn't get targeted enough. Kirk said were more open than last year.

QB - hoping he sleeps good this week and eats his Wheaties


DL - just okay. Need to increase the pressure. Maybe it was the rope a dope for game 1.

LB - okay for game 1. Need to be ready for lots of different looks for this upcoming one.

DB - okay overall

Kicker - Excellent

Punter - Excellent

Returners - Good to great

 

[TrojanHawkeye]

Ah, the Clone perspective. 1) Kirks not getting another extension, certainly not anything more then a year, and Barta is not the AD anymore. 2) The whole looking down at Iowa from you clowns. Lolol.. Remind us again of all the conference championship you've won in over 110 YEARS and major bowls played in? I'd wait for your response, but the silence is too much....

Please don't bring up Iowa and major bowls....Wow

Again, how can ISU have more questions after two games than the Squawks that are replacing most of their defense, along with a new QB, and others. ISU was one of the teams that was returning quite a few starters from the year before, QB, RBs, TE, most of the Oline, the only questions on offense was WR. On defense they returned one starter on the line, all the LBers and 2 of the 4 DBs, now compare the to what you brought back. Both the special teams kickers were back. My God its ok to just admit, ISU has fewer question marks entering the season, and few if any of them were answer last Saturday. Throw in the fact you lost a starting RB in the game, and a WR before the game.

[rchawk]

If Iowa wins this game I will consider it the biggest win for Iowa in this series since resuming.

Not even close. The 1977 game, when the series first resumed, was Iowa's biggest upset since they started playing again. Hawkeyes 12, clowns 10 in Kinnick Stadium.

Earle Bruce was the clown coach, he had fine teams in the late 1970s. Bob Commings was doing his best at Iowa. An unheard of RB named Dennis Mosley had a good game.

By biggest win for Iowa you may be thinking of the 1985 game in Ames when the Hawks won 57-3. It wasn't as close as the score suggests.

 

[AxisBoldAsKIrk]

What looks good this game for us?
Our kicker?
Our O line and running backs?
Great.

How about the clown QB?
What EVER have our DBs and ENTIRE LB CORPS shown?
Nothing.
Week 2 for this totally green LB corps and DBs that are ? marks.
(Oh but we have X back in his comfortable position. Sure).

Clowns look like a fine tuned machine.
We look like we have no idea who we even are yet.

Good God. I'm not talking about question. marks. I'm talking about who KNOWS more about the team they'll be playing Saturday. We know more about the Cyclones and what to expect. You've played two games and Your strengths are what we'd expect them to be. We've played one game, and pulled in the playbook after some early struggles settling in and cramping by MG. Hence you have more"questions" about just what you'll face. How much will it change if MG settles down and looks more like the QB that set most of the FCS records throwing for almost 11,000 yds? He is still that guy regardless of last Saturday. We also have three Linebackers who started their first game even though they're 4th year players because they played behind All American s ahead of them. I'd say they played pretty well game one, but I have no doubt they'll take another step forward each week with more on the field knowledge and working as a unit. I also wouldn't put any stock in us losing our starting RB. We have a room of talented backs. Moultan was the starter but not sure if he'll hold off Williams or Jazz Patterson, not to mention the freshman McNeil they're really high on.

It’s Iowa State not Ohio State.

I wouldn’t assume greatness out of them.

[Hans81]

Clowns have 2 games under their belt. They seem to be pretty good this year. They have an excellent QB. They have early season momentum. Iowas D doesn’t look good. Our QB play is terrible. This is the first year in 35+ years that I expect Iowa to lose. Knowing the Clowns are clearly better team the sting of losing to them the sting wont burn much for me. Iowa will need the entire season to get their legs under them. If the Clowns blow Iowa out Hawkeye fans will be calling for our 70 old coach o hang it up. If the season tanks I can’t see us going forward with Kirk. Many have been saying this for 5+ years.

Over-react much?!? Get a grip man…the Hawks will beat the clowns this Sat.

 

[Hans81]

I get it. If Iowa wins this game I will consider it the biggest win for Iowa in this series since resuming. I would call it a significant upset. That said, the Clowns having 2 games under their belt is the deal breaker for me.

One was against a weak SD team and the other over a highly over-rated KSU squad. Take a chill pill.

You guys will still beat up on the bottom half of the BIG, get to 8 wins and give Kirk an extension. Rinse and repeat.

Get lost. Iowa will beat an over-rated isu team on Sat and the Hawks will be on their way to a 10-win season.

The biggest difference between our programs is that we can operate without a QB, you can't. If Rocco is shaken or taken out of the game, your team is effectively finished. As much as I hate to say it, I think the Cocksucking Clowns will win this year. Mark won't drastically improve in time for the game and Rocco will give just enough to our bad secondary to win a close one. Lester is still in rebuild mode, so it'll take some time before we finally get out of the hole that dipshit Brian Ferentz left us in. So enjoy it while you can.

Is the isu wide receiver room/depth really that good this year?
