_____________ ________________________

Problems for both Iowa units. Justin Jackson got loose for 176 yards rushing, his season high, and Austin Carr tallied 3 TD catches for Northwestern. Meanwhile, Iowa's offense allowed 6 QB sacks and 9 TFLs. Other than Desmond King's returns, not much to be excited about for the Hawkeyes. Clearly, a ton of work to do in order to get the team back on track. On to the Y/N contest scores.........

The high score this week was shared by two contestants: Dauminator (8-2) and EvilMonkeyInTheCloset (8-2). Both finalist's entries were entered into the Tie-Breaker machine to determine which contestant more closely predicted CJ Beathard's total yards passing: 204. This week's winner is Dauminator (210) by a narrow margin over EvilMonkeyInTheCloset (217). The Monkey remains caged for another week.

Pat Fitzgerald leads Northwestern to IC this week for its first road contest hoping to redeem a surprisingly disappointing start to the season. The Wildcats opened with home losses to Western Michigan and Illinois State and then surrendered to Nebraska after a bounce-back win against Duke the prior week. The Hawk's have problems to fix on offense. Let's get it on.............

Pat Fitzgerald leads Northwestern to IC this week for its first road contest hoping to redeem a surprisingly disappointing start to the season.

_____________ ________________________

Problems for both Iowa units. Justin Jackson got loose for 176 yards rushing, his season high, and Austin Carr tallied 3 TD catches for Northwestern. Meanwhile, Iowa's offense allowed 6 QB sacks and 9 TFLs. Other than Desmond King's returns, not much to be excited about for the Hawkeyes. Clearly, a ton of work to do in order to get the team back on track. On to the Y/N contest scores.........

The high score this week was shared by two contestants: Dauminator (8-2) and EvilMonkeyInTheCloset (8-2).
