Iowa @ Rutgers Predictions

[DavenportHawk8]

I got to say that Rutgers is in a bad spot this week. Iowa coming off a loss and hungry to improve. I will say this, I think Rutgers is a good team, but they are still in a transition w/a new coach. I think Ash will do wonders there and be a solid hire.

I gotta say Iowa focuses on the ground game and uses a little more PA this week. The Oline will have to improve for the hawks to get a BIG win.


Hawks: 45
Knights: 17

I think the hawks offense comes in rolling and steam rolls the Knights.

 

[MWardT]

27-17 Hawks

 

[whatsup13579er]

38-16 Hawks

 

[HawkHeel3]

37-17 Hawks. Kirk gets the ball to Akrum early and often and he rewards the Captain. Wadley is salty about the few carries last week, and the disrespect Rutgers gave him in the recruiting process.

Edit: Northwestern game last year Wadley, is what im envisioning

 

[WisestIowan]

6-4 Hawks

 

[HawktimusPrime]

I see this being closer than it probably needs to be. 31-24 Iowa.

 

[hawkfan1963]

Either 41-10 or 21-20 depending on which Iowa team and coaches show up. Either way Iowa wins.

 

[N.Legend]

Not enough time to change in the offensive line. Output has been about the same in the first three games, just different quality in opponents. Lots of talent but still to much indecision on offense. Feeling hangover from NDSU. Rutgers 28-24 overtime.

 

[David1979]

Going on the road and playing in a sleepy atmosphere is always tricky. But coming off a loss is going to make these guys Hungry. I think Iowa wins 38-23.

 

[NevadaHawk]

40-22 Hawks

 

[DrVenkman]

If Daniels and Welsh are back and truly healthy, I think iowa can control the ball on the ground which can make the play action what it should be, an opp for CJ to make some deeper throws.

Iowa 30- RU 26

 

[SWIowahawks]

Not enough time to change in the offensive line. Output has been about the same in the first three games, just different quality in opponents. Lots of talent but still to much indecision on offense. Feeling hangover from NDSU. Rutgers 28-24 overtime.

You mean the two starters being added back after missing the NDSU game and the starting center back after missing the last two games? It's gonna make a huge difference. Iowa comes out focused and pissed. 36-17

 

[OmahaSker]

You guys bounce back. Not spectacularly but better than last week. 28-14

 

[20Hawkeye14]

24-21 hawks in a very close one all game.

 

[BUCKSNDUCKS]

Hawks come out focused - 35-21.......not focused Rutgers 28-21

 

[Hawkeyeinoregon]

Hawks 55

Calming fact everyone:

The only time Iowa has ever lost in the past two seasons is because I wasn't watching.

I was on vacation for the B1G Championship
I was working during the Rose Bowl
I was working during last week's game

I will be watching tomorrow, so victory is assured.

 

[BIG BOY HAWK]

Iowa 31
Rutgers 23

 

[RogerKint]

Rutgers scores late to lose 35-10. Go RRRRRRRRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!

It is impossible to have a 28-24 overtime score. Well, it is technically possible, but would never happen. Think about it......

 

[QChawks]

Hawks 21
Rutgers 24

 

[xkiesterx]

Rutgers fan here. I fully expect you to absolutely steamroll us. I would be surprised if this is a game by the 4th quarter. We are awful. 31-10 Iowa

 

[SotaHawk87]

Rutgers 28
Iowa 23

 

[SotaHawk87]

I mean.. depends how much the losing coach had on the spread!

It better be a lot, because he will be out of a job the next day!

There maybe a little power outage in your area on Saturday. Tell your neighbors not to be alarmed, it should only last from about 11am to 3pm. Maybe a little longer if extenuating circumstances should arise.

Sincerely,
Go RU.

How do you get that score in overtime?

I predict the Hawks win by 2 scores.

 

[brewhawk23]

Closer game than anyone wants (Iowa fans anyways). Iowa wins on a late FG.
Iowa 24
Rutgers 21

Rutgers 20

I predict the Hawks win by 2 scores.

Goes into OT 21-21. Rutgers gets the ball first and scores a touchdown. Iowa gets into 4th and long on our drive and KF goes the safe route and kicks the FG. Boom, 28-24

That is why I said 28-24 is technically possible. With Kirk.....you never know.
