    A Question for Tom Kakert

    I used to post on the bigten.org forums back in 1999, when Jon Miller was DenverHawk, I was KansasHawk, a poster named "petemote" and a handful of others. And there was maybe 5 total postings the entire day. That was it. Since then, I've regularly posted on Hawkeye message boards. Never have had...

    QB situation is BLEAK

    Ken O'Keefe is the highest paid QB coach in all of college football. No joke. Look it up.

    Please please go get Joe Brady for OC

    If you need a tight end specialist, Mike Brady is one. But, Mike is assuming room temperature.

    Iowa vs Kentucky in the Citrus Bowl

    The Clones have to play Clemson at a night game in that stadium. That area is pure ghetto. It's OK attending a game in the day time, but, at night, I'd be afraid I'd get mugged. There are a lot of tents that pop up outside the stadium, where you can get some local deals or get some free swag...

    it's the citrus bowl baby!!!! the catch 2.0

    At the beginning of the season, I would've been happy with a Citrus Bowl. But, since we started 6-0, every game has either been a loss or a struggle. Plus, teams that lose conference championship games usually don't fare well in bowl games. A few years ago, Kentucky beat a pretty-good Penn...

    Iowa's win at Nebraska had the largest BTN viewing audience in history

    Black Friday 3pm FOX game was TCU vs Iowa State. Iowa at Nebraska would've given FOX better ratings than that. The morning of the TCU-ISU game, secondary tickets, including fees, were starting at $13. Clown fans could care less, but tickets in Lincoln were still over $100. Yes, being on BTN...

    Citrus / Fiesta Bowl preferences

    https://www.actionnetwork.com/ncaaf/college-football-bowl-projections-brett-mcmurphy-predictions-projected-spreads-week-14 Brett McMurphy seems to be the closest to the pin on these bowl projections. With an Iowa loss, he has Iowa vs Kentucky in the Citrus. He also has Sparty vs Notre Dame in...

    Citrus / Fiesta Bowl preferences

    First, we need Oregon to win the Pac 12. Then, we wouldn't see a Ohio State selection, as they played earlier this year. Between Michigan State and Iowa, you would think the Rose Bowl would take Iowa. Michigan State barely brought anyone to Indy and Dallas at the end of the 2015 season.

    Indy tickets

    Not the same thing, but after I parked my car at the 2016 Rose Bowl, there were plenty of $50 tickets for sale, but almost all Iowa fans had tickets, in hand, some paying as much as $1,000/ticket. In 2015, I was in Indianapolis, all day, and the cheapest ticket never got below $300. I know some...

    Brad Powers on Nashville radio, this Wednesday AM

    https://t.co/8fMtj0H00j?ssr=true Brad Powers is a Vegas handicapper, but provides a lot of good information, and isn't your typical smarmy Vegas handicapper. He used to work for Phil Steele, but, now, is on his own at Brad Powers Sports. He is on the Bill King show, every Friday morning at 8am...

    Outback Bowl: Yea Or Nay?

    I live in Nashville and love every chance to go back to Tampa. It's a better city than Orlando and Miami, but the bowls in those 2 cities are more prestigious.

    Jess Settles color commentator, for Arkansas PB/Creighton on FS1.

    Jess will be assisting Lane Grindle broadcasting the game on FS1. We've appreciated his work on BTN, but this is the first I've seen him broadcasting on FS1.

    Updated Bowl Projections

    I've been to the Rose, Orange, Citrus, Outback, Alamo and Gator Bowl. Yes, starting the season 6-0 and possibly ending up in the Outback is a bit of a buzzkill. The Pinstripe Bowl was the ultimate buzzkill bowl, since the 1997 Sun Bowl. But, I, and many other Iowa fans, will happily go back to...

    B1G expansion

    Nebraska was the worst addition, by far, to the B1G. Rutgers gave us a huge population for TV revenue and some fertile recruiting. Maryland gave us a nice population for TV (Baltimore, Washington DC) and a great recruiting territory in the DMV. Penn State expanded the footprint, years prior to...

    What Would Be Your Ideal Iowa Bowl Destinations/Match Ups?

    A 12-1 Michigan team losing to Ohio State would get a Rose Bowl shot over a 11-2 Iowa team that loses to Ohio State in the B1G Championship Game. I want to see Sparty win on Saturday and I see them losing 2 of their remaining games. Remember, all of their wins have come against teams with a...

    And that is with 86-year-old, post stroke, Lee Corso on there. David Pollack must be on that set only to make Desmond Howard look good.

    David Pollack With More Iowa Insight

    12 of the 20 highest rated college football games this season, involve at least one B1G team. When I first saw that Fox was going to have a pre-game show with a Notre Dame honk, 2 USC honks and Urban Meyer, I thought this would be 100% unwatchable. This pre-game show has been a pleasant...

    Kirk’s most devastating loss

    1. 2016 Rose Bowl - Just to say in my lifetime that Iowa won a Rose Bowl (and I'm 50) 2. 2010 vs Wisconsin - Because of the trajectory of the program after the fake punt by Connie. Without CJ Beathard, I'm not sure the Iowa program ever recovers. 3. 2009 vs Ohio State - An Orange Bowl victory...

    David Pollock is one reason why College Gameday is so unwatchable. Just an unlikable Delta Bravo to so many viewers, nationwide.
