Hawkeye Beacon - Five Thoughts on Iowa Football Following Big Ten Media Days
Between intel from sources and what we were told in Indianapolis, there's quite a bit to digest from B1G Media Days.

The paint is drying on this thread but for those of you with a bit of a Hawk-on after media days, here's the schedule grid.
Good enough that I'm heading out of state to bet $500 that they beat the 6.5 win line. (Can't bet on Rutgers in NJ...sigh)
We are heading to VT & USC to see them play, may even drive to East Lansing for the last game of the season if we get to the 10 win mark, which a bunch of talking heads think we will.
Iowa fans are hoping for 10 or 11 wins, too.
I see you have a bye week before heading to VA Tech.
You have a pretty favorable home schedule. Are your tickets sales good? Iowa has sold out all 7 of their home games.
Your games at USC and at Nebraska will be interesting to watch.
Oh, and beat Wisconsin at home. @EvilMonkeyInTheCloset will tell you why.

Iowa all-American LB Jay Higgins good-naturedly wondered at B1G Media Days why Caitlin Clark gets more attention in his hometown of Indianapolis than he does.
“I mean, she’s been here for how long? Three months? I’ve been here 22 (years). I’ve been here my whole life. Nobody’s thought of putting a mural of me anywhere. I mean, at least a piece of canvas artwork would be fun. But she’s got a whole wall.”

It only only go up from here for the new UCLA head coach
Hopefully the Iowa offense can pull their weight this season

Do you think the WR room will finally have a break out season?
I'd just like them to catch any ball that gets to them. No dropsies.
Things better improve under the new WR coach, Jon Budmayr (aka, "the gift from heaven")
