One difference is we are running mark weisman at you. The other B1G teams are running high draft picks out there. Iowa's physicality will be something to see if ut can handle.

Saw today in Iowa that tickets were available for 45 on stubhub. Iowa's tickets through the u of I were at 85 with a 20 processing fee. This is exactly one reason iowa ticket sales are down. Most iowa fans have been talking about this for a yr. Iowa attendance wont be what it usually...

Not to mention Koehn was leading the country in touchbacks for muc of the year. He can be a weapon. WISH HE COULD PUNT!!

Iowa fans have been talking for a yr about not buying tickets through U of I anymore. The seats were always bad. The open market was better. Combine that with many utterly revolting against the AD and Ferentz, it makes sense that Iowa isnt going to travel as well as in the past...

That is not accurate at all. Yes, there were problems with kicking game at beginning of the year but it has been solid fir most of the year

Nebraska fans bragged for a year how they would come in and dominate the big, slow big 10. It didnt and wont happen. The B1G has to be built in a way that no other conference does. Combine that with some inherent disadvantages based on geography, academic standards, more broad athletic...

The SEC teams generally wont come up north for the return trip. Its been tried

You son of a ....!

Regarding Iowa traveling well as a fan base. This will be the weakest attended bowl game of the Ferentz era if i had to guess. Not only from the number of fans in attendance but also the fan energy enthusiasm. There is as much frustration with the program as i have ever seen...

I remember quite a few SEC teams fans saying the same thing in the past only to walk away with a L. The speed myth hasnt materialized too many times. UT may win but no one can look at these 2 teams and say there is a big advantage in many areas

@ChadLeistikow: Obviously early, but forecast for TaxSlayer Bowl in Jacksonville on Jan. 2 calls for a 60% chance of showers, high temp 64 degrees. Who does this benefit?

the key to this game for both teams will be first down gains for Tennessee. If it ends up 2nd and 3rd and long or even medium, that greatly benefits Iowa's D. Sure, you can say that in many games but with the worries of containing a QB capable of hurting you with h is feet and combined with...

I think that is a good idea and I even think Iowa has tried that vs a few teams. The issue is a lack of athleticism and discipline at times with a few of the LB's. The saving grace for Iowa could be the preparation time that they have. Generally, they do an excellent job of having the team...

I'm not sure the OP's intent but I think he is right but to narrow it down a bit more clearly, IMO the key is to limit his scrambling and force him to be accurate. In other words, force him to be a pocket passer. The Iowa D under Norm Parker was designed around a simple concept. College...

Girls are girls no matter where you go. I'm positive Tennessee doesn't have a monopoly on hot women.
