Pretty sure Phil permitted it last yearNot a blowout. Phil would not permit that.
Despite an outstanding defensive performance and solid special teams play, we will suffer defeat by the score of @17-0.

It's not...lowest I've seen is Michigan -4.5 with the average at -7.5I just saw that the early line has Iowa favored by 2.
I was joking.It's not...lowest I've seen is Michigan -4.5 with the average at -7.5
Stats can be funny...you say Michigan gave up 400 total yards...well yeah (technically 397 but same thing)...a good amount of that was late in the game...I'm not see I see a non-fantasy way for the Hawks to beat Michigan, but then again Kinnick can be a magical place.
The few times I watched Michigan this year, the offense looks complete. JJ is really good. I wouldn't have thought a Michigan defense would give up 400 yards to Maryland, so maybe there is some hope for the Hawks on O.
And, surprisingly, they look well-coached. One turnover and one penalty.
It will take a supreme effort and some Kinnick magic to get this one IMO
I wish that ridiculous expression would go away.The game will hinge on field position. Punting is winning.
Good plan.1) One decent drive for a TD from the offense....something in the realm of a 75 yard, 12 play sustained drive.
2) 3 FGs sprinkled throughout the game....2 of which will likely be 45+ yarders. These will, on the surface, be frustrating at the time because the offense will have stalled. They add up and are critical to a Hawkeye win.
3) A turnover forced by our defense that either creates a defensive score or gives our offense a very short field, leading to a quick offensive TD.
23 points at home against Michigan wins the game.
I'd like to read your thoughts on how you think the Hawks win this game. Would be nice if it didn't start with "fire the Head Coach and his Son" or "don't let Petras anywhere near the field".
Come on...what's your combination of things that lead to the point total we need to win?
Kinnick the hell out of them a.k.a. BE LOUD!!!
1. Hoping the offense can get to midfield.
2. Hoping our punter pins the opponent deep.
3. Needing the defense to make a stop or get a turnover.
Most teams expect the offense to score points. Not Iowa. We either need the defense to score, or hope the other team makes mistakes in order to win
Wrong.This is it.
End thread.
All other talk is just jokes and or speculation.
We are going to have to rely on the D, FOR FOUR QUARTERS of getting THREE DOWN BREATHERS, to win this.
Yikes.
Hawks by a million!.....1) One decent drive for a TD from the offense....something in the realm of a 75 yard, 12 play sustained drive.
2) 3 FGs sprinkled throughout the game....2 of which will likely be 45+ yarders. These will, on the surface, be frustrating at the time because the offense will have stalled. They add up and are critical to a Hawkeye win.

We'll take Hawks by anything, right?!?Hawks by a million!.....
Iowa is a +9.5 currently.That makes no sense.
Fire the head coach and his son.1) One decent drive for a TD from the offense....something in the realm of a 75 yard, 12 play sustained drive.

You wouldn’t be JHS Class of ‘77 would you?This is it.

You don’t need to pressure Petras. All you have to do is yell Boo!😂I think we see Michigan’s strategy in 2019 when they blitzed the hell out of Stanley and he was sacked 8 times. They are going to pressure Petras all game

How so?Wrong.
Highly doubtful Cade will be able to play.does michigan’s other qb become available for next week or will it be just mccarthy?
Not beating anyone good with our offensive Offensive scheme.Glad you’re not the coach bro!
I'm pretty sure we've punted in every game we've won. Further, I'd argue that punting was key to the winning pts vs SDSU.I wish that ridiculous expression would go away.
If you are punting, you are losing.
Got lots of respect for Iowa. Im not looking forward to this game one bit. Its going to be painful to watch. I'm 50.9 percent sure we'll find a way. Wouldn't touch Michigan against that spread though1) One decent drive for a TD from the offense....something in the realm of a 75 yard, 12 play sustained drive.
2) 3 FGs sprinkled throughout the game....2 of which will likely be 45+ yarders. These will, on the surface, be frustrating at the time because the offense will have stalled. They add up and are critical to a Hawkeye win.

If you are punting, you are not scoring. Of course teams punt almost every game, but too many punts is not good……and I don’t care how many times you pin the opponent inside their 10.I'm pretty sure we've punted in every game we've won. Further, I'd argue that punting was key to the winning pts vs SDSU.
All The pressure is on them.. We are not suppose to win they are the ranked powerhouse. So play loose and let it fly.. sorta like the Ohio St game where we blasted them.1) One decent drive for a TD from the offense....something in the realm of a 75 yard, 12 play sustained drive.
2) 3 FGs sprinkled throughout the game....2 of which will likely be 45+ yarders. These will, on the surface, be frustrating at the time because the offense will have stalled. They add up and are critical to a Hawkeye win.

Great add to the conversation....NOT. Unless you think you're funny....I'm betting you are a real pin dick.Fire the head coach and his son.
Simple. Iowa expects the offense to score points....just like "most teams" (every team).How so?
Really?
Not trying to be a smartass, but how is that not Iowa's game plan?
