__________________________________________

Iowa's offense has now scored exactly 17 points in 4 of 5 B10 contests. Result: 3 losses in those 4 games and, thanks to Minnesota (and especially the Hawkeye D), just one win. At minimum, the Hawkeye offense needs a major tune-up.... is there a mechanic in the house? We shall see soon enough Hawk fans. On to the contest results..........

jdv77, thewop, hawkeye bb n fb fan, and jimney74 all scored 7-3 this week, the high score among all 31 contest entries. Proximity to Nate Stanley's 190 yards passing would decide the winner under the Tie-Breaker.

Congratulations to jimney74 (TB 183) this week's winner with the closest prediction to Stanley's pass yardage. Runner-up spot goes to jdv77 (TB 226) who was a botched downfield pass completion / freak Gopher INT away from taking the top spot.

__________________________________________

Iowa's offense has now scored exactly 17 points in 4 of 5 B10 contests. Result: 3 losses in those 4 games and, thanks to Minnesota (and especially the Hawkeye D), just one win. At minimum, the Hawkeye offense needs a major tune-up.... is there a mechanic in the house? We shall see soon enough Hawk fans. On to the contest results..........

jdv77, thewop, hawkeye bb n fb fan, and jimney74 all scored 7-3 this week, the high score among all 31 contest entries. Proximity to Nate Stanley's 190 yards passing would decide the winner under the Tie-Breaker.

Congratulations to jimney74 (TB 183) this week's winner with the closest prediction to Stanley's pass yardage. Runner-up spot goes to jdv77 (TB 226) who was a botched downfield pass completion / freak Gopher INT away from taking the top spot.
