Hawk nation,

Let's not lose our support for this team. Still a lot to play for this year. GOAL OF THE BIG TEN WEST IS STILL INTACT. Obvious our hawks are still a good team - 10 point favorites at home to division leading Northwestern. Still hope people. Say it with me - still hope, still hope, still hope. What did Jimmy V say? Don't give up, don't ever give up. GO HAWKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I rode on two RAGBRAI's and so appreciate what the State of Ioa offers. The food is delicious, the land is beautiful, and your farmgirls are easy. However, I hate your football program and hope we beat your asses yet again.

Hope we don't hurt any of your boys.

Good guys 27
Kitty Cats 17

 

[CAhawki]

B Smith is out today

 

[hknation]

Mean while back to business at hand, KF just interviewed:
* first, exhibited some class, unlike eva-cat
* relying on sr leadership to move on
* good wk of practice, hmmmm
* young OL still growing
* expected Thorsen to be good, another sr QB
* mostly coach speak, usual KF.

Fun fact for you youngins:

And he tore a knee (acl) his senior year playing iowa...

 

[mill1634]

OJ and HAnkins with the start. Wish it was Hankins and Brents. NW safety is out. So is Brandon Smith.

Guess that explains his hatred for Iowa

Why no Brents?

 

[takai]

Hawks lose a close one because of too many stupid mistakes

NW - 23
Iowa - 17

 

[mill1634]

Why no Brents?

He will play, but not start.

 

[TheTruthTheWholeTruth]

27-10 Hawks

NW is going to have a very difficult time moving the ball today.

 

[HawkeyeFever62]

How is the weather in Iowa City?

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Kickoff now 2:47....

 

[IowaMeatMan]

Go Hawks!

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

First non-sell out in what four or five games? You can tell too.

No one wants to watch a Pinstripe bowl bound team in 25 degree weather. Can't blame them.

 

[ottumwan in tx]

looks like a lot of empty seats

I don't think they can go there again so soon

Yes, although I am not sure that shot of the two announcers was live.

 

[Midwestfella12]

We are playing for the Outback Bowl or Lower. Why anyone would be out there in 20 degree weather is beyond me

 

[bojihawk44]

In before the bitchfest after we give up one big play or have to punt. Can't wait for all the idiots to come out of the woodwork.

 

[HawkeyeFever62]

looks like a lot of empty seats

After 3 losses that should've been wins. Apathy has set in once again.

 

[DougFHawkeye]

Great start

 

[JoelBittner]

FoxSports - Kinnick focused
ESPN - sad medical stories focused
One is better than the other

 

[bojihawk44]

Sargent with the carry. Will iafbnbb stop bitching now?

Sad.

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Wasted great field position....

 

[spiderland]

SMH...

 

[EpenesaEpenesa]

It’s not possible to stare down a receiver more than that

 

[Slappy Pappy]

Thanks for going pass heavy, Brian.
