YOu are KIDDING, lol!! Go back and look how well Wisconsin has run the ball on Iowa lately....hell go back the last 5 years.

Michigan ran the ball well because 1) they have a mobile QB 2) they run a spread) 3) they have a lot of speed

Iowa plays VERY well against traditional offenses (Wisc, PSU, MN). Even when Iowa was terrible in 2006-2007 Wisconsin struggled against Iowa.

Wisconsin will have to throw the ball well to beat Iowa. I hope people are all over Wiscsonsin...I will take Ferentz and a physical Iowa team with wins over PSU, Arizona, and Michigan over Bielema and a Wiscosnin team that has its best win against Minnesota.

Iowa's had a nice year. Their DT's are also softer than usual. It's not a scheme thing or Michigan (Mich had 10 yds rushing against Sparty two weeks ago) The Iowa D is giving up 4.3 ypc and 135 ypg despite having Ark St, Iowa St and N Iowa in 3 of the 6 games. That's the worst Iowa run defense in terms of yards and average since 2000, if I'm not mistaken. Wisky averages 200+ on the ground. They'll get theirs on the ground and win this game.

"the bunker"
you have to figure that the linemaker saw the ohio st/wisky game last week and they realize that wisky icould very easily have won that game....they actually looked like the better team....could be the most "deceiving final score" in a game that i`ve watched in a very long time...

my first thought was," why did this open iowa-2 at camp randall?"....

my second thought was,"the linesmakers aren`t stupid"....

i say be very careful here...

I am guessing the line moved because numerous KEY players for Iowa have the flu. It is not a good situation right now.

Iowa absolutely dominated the final 2.5 quarters, Stanzi made throw after throw today!:00hour

:00hour


I admit I was a bit concerned after the 1st quarter with the way Wisky was dominating on both sides of the ball, but Iowa's coaching staff made the correct adjustments and it was all Hawkeyes after that.

That trip to the 'Shoe in a few weeks doesn't look so hard now, does it? :mj07: :scared

What a dominating 2nd half-Dice you might take all those Wisky pleayers vs Iowa players, etc. but the scoreboard means the final thing-GL on the rest of your games. Iowa has an excellent coaching staff.
