*****THE OFFICIAL IOWA VS DEBBIE GAME THREAD*****

Look at the hidden yardage in that game and you'll see how we won. Our avg starting position was our 37 yard line, Debbie? Their 22.

Over 11 possessions, that's 165 yards of offense without even snapping the ball. Add in +50 return yard advantage and the game results make more sense. The Kirk way.

Also didn't hurt that the defense shut them out the second half. They only scored one TD, just like us.

Max strip sacking Ravioli was pure will and desire.
Plus add in the yards gained on turnovers. The muffed punt rolled forward about 10 yards on a 40 yard kick into the wind. So that is like a 50 yard drive by our offense and getting a FG.

And as you said if we averaged starting around our own 35 and we recovered the last fumble at their 35 then that is another 30 yards advanced that led to a score.

And empty possessions into scoring territory was +1 for Nebby. They had the long drive in the 2nd half that resulted in the missed FG, that was a crucial play to keep us in it.

You are correct about all the hidden yardage there is in most every game.

Coaches Poll released on Tuesday

Report: Florida State interested in Nebraska's Tony White, who may get more job looks for 2025

White has experience coaching LB's. It will be interesting to see if he also takes on that role, and Shannon is gone. It will also be interesting is White stays with a base 3-3-5 alignment, or goes with FSU's 4-2-5 alignment. I suspect it will be a hybrid of the 2, and may change some coaching duties. I'd like to see White coach LB's, and Shannon be gone.

Other Results

Rhodes was a room guy here, Cobe was suspended and if being honest room guy level and I would favor Salazar over Glazier who was a backup most of his career. These results basically confirm what we already knew about their abilities if being honest and it also confirms our bad recruiting that 2 of the 3 started a season here as basically the only options at the time.

I believe Cobe was the 11 seed at the NCAAs two years ago. I wouldn't call that "room guy" in the grand scheme of things. Perhaps the rest of the season will go better for him.

California Lawmakers to Propose $25 Million Fund to Litigate Trump Administration

You probably should flush your toilet then. I'm not making these things up. You can live in denial all you want, but these are verified facts that they haven't even denied.

Republicans don't like to know things. Then when they know something, they simply ignore it and pretend their first belief is still the correct one.

Joe pardons Hunter

I agree and disagree. It wasn't a witch hunt. Hunter did the crimes, and more that we don't know about or can't be prosecuted. Biden's own DoJ and other agencies did the investigations.

Any Democrat wanting more gun laws, or claiming the "rich" don't pay their fair share, need to be first in line criticizing this.

Oh, I'm waiting for Joes Place to pop up demanding Hunter sign a confession as a requirement for accepting the pardon. The hypocrisy is overwhelming.

I'd venture a guess Hunter has committed other crimes, like not registering as a foreign agent, money laundering, and tax evasion. At least we can save some D0J and FBI resources not pursuing those potential crimes.
I think many of the criticisms are valid...sort of. The problem is since nothing was ever done about it when this stuff came up under Trump then that's the playing field we are on now. If you don't like it, you should have thought about these things 5 years ago. But now this is where we are at. Congrats. By allowing Trump to do these types of things it made it ok, and actually expected, for everyone else to do it too. That's the problem with setting precedents. And now, there's nothing stopping Trump from doing it again and you better believe that Congress won't do anything about it either. They'll just complain like they always do.

Iowans - what do you plant in your home gardens?

Good stuff. I am currently thinking tomatoes, green beans, snap peas, bell peppers, some spicy peppers, and and zucchini. I will start planting basil too, to make a fresh pesto. I am not sure what other herbs I will plant, if any...
Garlic takes a couple years to establish fwiw, you don't get a production your first year.

What exactly is the deep state?

Bureaucracies with a not so subtle political agenda that use their position to prosecute that agenda...How hard can that be for you to grasp???
It’s an escapegoat for Trump’s failings. He’ll never admit he’s wrong. He’ll never admit he failed at something. Nothing is ever his fault.

It’s how you get here,

2026 four-star QB Peyton Falzone Decommits from Virginia Tech; will be in Iowa City this Weekend

True enough, so maybe there's hope. My point is the same posters who complain here that Kirk does the "were just little old Iowa" deal, are the same ones who post why would any kid in their right mind ever commit to play here. Maybe they don't get the fact that everything they post is just as out there for recruits to see as anything that Kirk says. Maybe welcome the kid and hope he has great success as a Hawk, and enjoy his time with the support of a fan base that welcomes and appreciates all of those who become Hawkeyes.
With the new OC there is renewed hope. If recruits like him can view the past as being in the rear view mirror and evaluate the situation as different given the arrival of Lester then Iowa has a chance. If viewed through the lens of the last 5 years, then it will really be an uphill climb to attract any high quality QB's and receivers. Unfortunately this year saw an improvement in the offense but the passing game was still worst in the nation, sans service academies.. That didn't help Iowa's argument that things are changing.

Iowans - what do you plant in your home gardens?

Tomatoes for fresh eating as well as canning
Onions
Green beans ( pole)
Snap peas
Cucumber
Radishes
Peppers ( bell, jalapeño, Anaheim)


In the back half I do sunflowers and watermelons. ( next year will do sun/pump as my soil isn't sandy enough)



Pro tip: don't plant cherry tomatoes, you will never get rid of them, if you really want cherry tomatoes, put them in a bucket.

Rutgers "Insider" Claims Elite Guys Leaving Both PSU and Iowa

lmao the same exact thing could be said for glazier and cobe.

glazier came to iowa as a career room guy and left as an aa-level grad transfer.
Siebrecht is 2-3 and has been dominated twice by Minnesota's back up for SDSU. Glazier's solid, but he's never beaten an AA. We'll see how he does at CKLV.

Remember when people were trying to say Siebrecht scared Teemer off?
