Iowa wins by 31

looking at what BC did the 2nd half of the season, I don't think it's gonna be an easy game.
that doesn't even factor in the way the last 4 iowa teams have played their last games!

I am too. This will be cold weather game like a Packers or Bears game in December. Two northern teams that know how to play in this kind of weather. Hope they both play well and the Hawks win.

As I've said many times this team frustrates me just as badly as the critics. But I love our D, I love the way they fly around and when we aren't dropping passes and missing assignments we are very fun to watch. It's "my" team good, bad or indifferent and unless we sign a real knucklehead as coach one day I will ALWAYS enjoy seeing them play!

I don't care if it's 10-7 or 31-28....I just can't always watch them play live…

On a sidenote and I may be in the minority here but I have never much enjoyed 45-41 type game.... I like to see more defensive control than that! The only thing of course being more frustrating is when we can't move the ball at all, vis-a-vis the Wisconsin game!

How confident are we in the team stopping the run? If we can, I think we have this game. The qb for BC wasn't the starter for most of the year came in after original starter's season ending injury, but their freshman back is all ACC. Their TE is the leading TD receiver, and no one receiver cracked over 500 yards receiving hmm sounds familiar. They are heavily reliant on the run and solid defense but I think our defense is better.

Giving up on the basketball team already?

I just want a close game. We've seen a bunch of sad bowl losses lately. Been wanting a win for a decade almost. I think they can win this but it's not going to be easy.

I never watch basketball since they hired alford. literally gave up on them then.

It's the Hawks and college football. The game could be against Mercer in the Arctic Circle and only available by listening to Dolph, and I'd still be excited for it.

Go Hawks, Iowa wins by 13.

I’d rank that best to worst:

Mercer
Artic Circle
Listening to Dolph
