Wow Penn State is bad.
October 27th, 2018 at 5:12 PM ^
Clearly wisky, MSU and Penn State are all just mediocre teams. Good news: We can beat all of them. Bad news: These teams we’re beating aren’t as impressive as we thought.
October 27th, 2018 at 7:04 PM ^
I never thought MSU was impressive at all.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:43 PM ^
So the winner of Iowa-NW is the West favorite?
October 27th, 2018 at 3:45 PM ^
So it would seem.
Iowa off to a strong start against PSU. Weather could give this game a yakety sax feeling.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:52 PM ^
you spelled “franklin+ferentz” wrong
October 27th, 2018 at 3:45 PM ^
Purdue at least is done and Wisconsin is hanging by a thread maybe. Looks like Iowa/Northwestern. I'm hoping for Northwestern. I don't want to play another late season ugly game against Iowa.
October 27th, 2018 at 4:26 PM ^
Win out and bring on Iowa. Winovich revenge tour complete.
I was rooting for Purdue in the west but they had the toughest road. Still play Iowa & Wisky at home.
NW only has one test left @ Iowa and they may still be able to win west with a loss there.
October 27th, 2018 at 4:28 PM ^
Part of me wants revenge against Iowa. OTOH Northwestern used all of their offense in the first 3 drives against us. They've got nothing left. We would obliterate them.
October 27th, 2018 at 4:38 PM ^
Personally I’d rather play (and beat) a highly ranked one-loss Iowa to get some extra credit for the CFP selection considering there may be other one-loss teams with viable resumes (e.g. OU). IF Michigan wins out, beating an unranked or lowly ranked NW for the second time won’t do much for the resume.
October 27th, 2018 at 4:56 PM ^
Beet me two it.
October 27th, 2018 at 4:57 PM ^
October 27th, 2018 at 5:04 PM ^
You think we'd to stumble against Iowa in Indy?
Bring it on. We'll Rutger them.
October 27th, 2018 at 5:10 PM ^
Iowa could still get into the CCG with a loss today or next week and a win over NW (in Iowa City). Though they would have to worry about what Wisky does (play @PSU & @Pur). I still see a 2 loss Iowa going into the CCG as a top 15 ranked team. A 1 loss Iowa would be top 10 easy. No way NW has a chance to get that far up (barring a win vs ND and winning out).
October 27th, 2018 at 4:52 PM ^
I don't think beating a team twice in the same year does much for your resume. Or at least not nearly as much as beating a different, higher ranked team. If we are fighting for a playoff spot it will be about resumes. If Iowa were to make it to the CCG they would likely be a top 15 team. NW is nowhere near the top 25 right now and play Notre Shame next week at home. Likely loss #4 although we will all be rooting for them. If they do lose next week and then win out they would definitely be west champs but would only creep into the 20-25 range, then of course fall out of it after we obliterate them.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:44 PM ^
This Iowa PSU game is crazy and it just started!
October 27th, 2018 at 3:44 PM ^
Hawkeyes now control their own destiny for the B1G West. Good start against PSU too, getting a few lucky bounces
October 27th, 2018 at 3:44 PM ^
We've got a hockey score in Happy Valley
October 27th, 2018 at 3:45 PM ^
Over under 12 fumbles today in the Iowa Penn St game. Seen two already a couple minutes in
October 27th, 2018 at 3:47 PM ^
Todd mcshay keeps calling Iowa coach BRIAN ferentz. Who is this B. Ferentz , sir.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:50 PM ^
Thought his name was Hayden Fryntz
October 27th, 2018 at 4:02 PM ^
Kirk's son Brian is Iowa's offensive coordinator.
October 27th, 2018 at 4:16 PM ^
Offensive coordinator and Kirk’s son..
October 27th, 2018 at 3:49 PM ^
Goal for this game is to make PSU expend a lot of effort and get beat up physically. That should soften them up for next week in Ann Arbor.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:52 PM ^
Agreed. Go go body blow theory!
October 27th, 2018 at 4:03 PM ^
We don’t need no injury-takin, excuse makin, soft-belly ache-in, wind-breakin, PSU next week.
I want to tear out their fully-healthy beating hearts and shit on them while their law-breakin alumni watch in powerless horror.
if possible, that would be my ideal scenario
October 27th, 2018 at 4:42 PM ^
Don't hold back. Tell us how you really feel!
(same as I do)
October 27th, 2018 at 3:50 PM ^
Franklin looks distracted. The football game is probably interfering with his attempt to sell a 2013 Corolla.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:50 PM ^
Iowa is a great preview for us should be some useful tape on this game
October 27th, 2018 at 3:51 PM ^
After that kick-fake-no let's kick routine, go home, Iowa. You're drunk.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:51 PM ^
Wtf was that
October 27th, 2018 at 3:51 PM ^
Iowa confusion, finally having to settle for a short FG to make it 5-0. Brian Ferentz is NOT happy.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:52 PM ^
Kirk Ferentz with the razzle dazzle
October 27th, 2018 at 3:52 PM ^
October 27th, 2018 at 3:53 PM ^
You're anal about practically EVERYTHING, aren't you?!
October 27th, 2018 at 3:52 PM ^
Shout-out to Steve Levy's hair dyer and plastic surgeon. Yamahama.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:54 PM ^
Btw is this the same crew that officiated SMU game ???
October 27th, 2018 at 3:54 PM ^
There is going to be a flag or injury on virtually every play in this game. Make it into a drinking game and you will be passed out by halftime.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:54 PM ^
holding!
October 27th, 2018 at 3:55 PM ^
I hate PSU, and a win/loss in this game barely effects UM, correct? I'm asking if there is an important reason that we should be rooting for PSU (and hoping the answer is no).
Also, what's Marcus Ray's hot take this week now that Purdue lost?
October 27th, 2018 at 3:56 PM ^
A PSU win would help us since we don't play Iowa (as far as we know)
October 27th, 2018 at 3:58 PM ^
Don't wanna play Iowa either
October 27th, 2018 at 4:08 PM ^
I do. We owe them too.
October 27th, 2018 at 5:27 PM ^
Marcus just received his 2 xtra large meat lovers pizzas. Will get back to you later.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:56 PM ^
A lot of open seats at Happy Valley.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:59 PM ^
I noticed the same. Pretty big game for obly what, 75k there?
October 27th, 2018 at 3:58 PM ^
Add Iowa to the revenge tour.
October 27th, 2018 at 3:59 PM ^
UGA up 10-0 in the 1st vs. Florida
October 27th, 2018 at 4:01 PM ^
Iowa getting all the luck
October 27th, 2018 at 4:02 PM ^
Iowa and Michigan will meet in Indy....im rather confident of this.
The outcome of that game is what I’m not confident about....
Im happy I took Sparty and Iowa with thenpoints today though....
