How bout them Hawkeyes!
 

That Defense is stellar!

Can't wait to be at Kinnick for the Iowa/Michigan game in a couple of weeks.

I'm impressed

The problem with the Hawks is that the play to the level of their competition.

That said, their defense is something special this year.

They have a tough schedule with games @ Michigan State, @ Wisconsin, and @ Ohio State, but when you play defense like that, any thing is possible.

As of a week ago I was going to this game, but we decided after incurring several unexpected major costs to not go. Good thing with PSU losing and the rain.

Iowa played really well tonight. Forced turnovers, controlled the ball on the ground, forced Clark into bad throws and shut down PSU's running game. Very impressive victory, the kind of football I love.

Great win!

That said, Stanzi has to improve to make this a special season.

Isn't that pretty much every team in the conference? It's the Big Herm Conference.

Agree TRR. I'm pretty confident that Iowa will play in a January Bowl game, but if they want to move to the next level Stanzi is going to have to play better and find a way to play well for an entire game, not just the 2nd half.

ahahahahahha

Couldn't agree more.

They should beat Michigan, they're a recruiting class or two away.

Yo, check it.

Dude, the way they're playing defense right now, I'm not sure Stanzi needs to do anything differently.

It will be an interesting game. Iowa is going to have LB's matched up with Michigan's WR's all game.

Michigan's defense is horrible, they're capable of giving up shittons of yards and points to anybody.

Btw kansas and kansas state both won so far so good.

On the flip side, I don't think there's any team in the Big 10 that can score more than 20 on the Hawks.

They've finally got the running game going. The line is coming together even without future 1st-round pick Brian Bulaga. The guy playing LT in his place is a FRESHMAN and he looked like a man amongst boys out there tonight. And the two RB's they have are both freshmen too.
