TCU appears to be a legit team
The problem is that the only thing we’ll know at the end of the season is that they are better than a bunch of mediocre to bad teams and Oregon St.
Like I said…a bunch of mediocre to bad teams…that covers it.
Iowa would have beaten TCU in the Fiesta Bowl last January

Of course.
In fact Iowa has never lost a Div-1 football game.

Bama
We could have beaten the Buckeyes last season and I don’t think they’ve improved enough that we can’t knock them off.
I guess I didn't read the question close enough
I still choose Bama but I ain’t risking my life on them…Iowa is the only team on the list I’d consider dying for, yet I don’t think they are the best team in the nation.
TCU QB needs to get crunched here...

just now got sat down to watch the game on dvr. followed most of it on my phone. but can watch it now with pregame and postgame and beeeeeer. great way to start the season. disappointed AC didn’t gnaw off an EIU limb, but, he can save the canibalism for pryor. i’ll take iowa in the 64 team playoff starting tomorrow and look forward to the destruction of the “team” from ames that we are told has to exist. during the ames floods i was hoping to see flaming plumes of oil float thru town and burn it to the ground, but, i guess the gulf gets to keep those.

I think Stanzi revealed the locker room discussion
when he said, “we need to learn that every series is important.” Decoded, that means they didn’t play very hard after they got up big.
"I wish you luck with a capital 'F'" - The Real Elvis.
Didn't hear him say that
But it really makes some of the defensive series make more sense. They didn’t look bad, per se, but I just thought they’d look better.
yeah
i was at work screaming at the osu and michigan fan that we won’t sit on the brake pedal in the second half once we get up on them. i don’t think its the players, its that okeefe guy. for some reason they keep letting him call plays and if he were a hunter he would never kill anything completly, just maime it to let it live to see another day.

In terms of straight dollars-and-cents...
putting your games on PPV might actually be the next best thing to having a network devoted to your conference. You sign a team to play at your place (for the lowest amount of money possible), hope you sell the place out, and then charge anyone else that wants to see it a big chunk of change. And frankly, OU and NU don’t really need the national “attention” for this game.
However, if you don’t want to stick your money-vacuum in your own fans’ butts, then maybe you try to put the game on free (or close to it) TV.

when is the LAST time Iowa was on Pay Per View? the game @ Miami, Florida?
this place smells like feet. i’ll bring a can of lysol next week.
Technically the games that used to be on ESPN+
If you were outside of Iowa, I’m pretty sure those were only available through ESPN Gameplan on PPV.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
so Iowa was on TV, even if you had to pay.... no blackouts.

The thing I liked most was the fact that they did well in short yardage situations. At the goalline, on third and short or fourth and short… they got a really good push most of the time. That hasn’t often been the case in recent years.

I think traveling to Utah will be their hardest game of the year, and a likely defeat for the Frogs.
As for their rankings, I think they deserve to be ranked higher than Texas and Florida right now, but I doubt they would be ranked ahead of our hypothetically unbeaten Hawkeyes — who would have beaten likely ranked opponents PSU, Wisky, and OSU at home and potentially good opponents Zona, Mich, jNW, and Minny on the road.

So, so fat. Wisconsin was atrocious in 2008. Their quarterbacks were a joke. So we lined up in a 4-4, daring them to pass. They didn’t. Hill tried to go left or right and he waddled into the arms of a linebacker time after time.

Are Penn State and Wisconsin good enough opponents?
Because his tackle-breaking touchdown runs were pivotal in both of those games.
Not that you don’t have a point about not crowning him yet, because we haven’t seen Jewel yet, etc., etc. We do still need to see what he can do with this year’s offensive line against a quality defense.
He won’t be Shonn Greene, but he continues to make critical contributions to the team. I think he has a lot in common with Albert Young.

I actually thought he looked serviceable in the backfield
I don’t want him seeing time against a BCS opponent…but he could maybe even be a stud in a lesser conference.
He looked a lot better today than he has
but still went down a couple of times on finger tackles (i.e. went down as soon as someone got a pinkie on him)
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
In all fairness, it was the very end of the game
when Paki got his 4 carries. I don’t think KF wanted him to score a TD so late in the game with a 30 point lead already.

I'm all about the schadenfreude.
Don’t worry.
Even though the Big Ten has decreed that Wisco is no longer as rival-y to me as Purdue, I refuse to let my hate go quietly into that cold, dark night.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Wisco does this every year
For all the flak we caught for the UNI game, Wisconsin never gets called out for all the near-misses they have on a yearly basis with inferior opponents.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Yeah, that is very true.
They fuck around with teams like Fresno and NIU and whatnot all the time.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
But they do tend to get "called out" for it.
Or at least for the perception that they always schedule weak OOC opponents, which is related.
"Among the safe ways to pursue truth is the putting of experience ahead of any reasoning, we being sure that any fallacy must reside in the latter at least covertly." -- Galileo Galilei
They get called out for the weak schedule
But not for their poor performances against them.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
UNLV is getting thoroughly dominated
except for the pick-6 and a huge fumble return to set up the last TD. I would love to see the offensive comparison

I can't wait till midnight
Iowa game is suppose to be on BTN. I didn’t get to see it earlier b/c I was on the road.
And you don't need to watch anything past the first quarter
Seriously, I have almost no recollection of anything after that as it was a blur of extremely conservative playcalling on iowa’s part. Was nice to see Morse get a TD though
SPOILER ALERT: when Stanzi goes down in the 2nd quarter, it isn’t as bad as it looks and he comes back
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
it's cool
I listened to the game on WHO Radio. I heard 75% of the game, so I know pretty much what happens. Kinda need to see it for myself
Oh gosh
They’re gonna make me sit through overtime? It’s freaking midnight.
Oh, and Ross this thread is getting slow. Mind if I start a new one?

Crouch?
No. He was on the 01 squad that got fucking wrecked by Miami and their team of future All-Pros.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
God that Miami team was good
For my money, the best team of the past decade, at the least. They were just ruthless in the way they dismembered opponents
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Yeah, they were fucking ruthless.
And unlike other “OMG Greatest Team of the Decade” squads that were loaded with NFL draft picks… their guys were actually good in the NFL.
They should have had back-to-back titles. Possibly three straight if not for that wacky loss to… UCLA?… in ’00, too.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
You know how you can tell they were ruthless?
Because one of their players went on to stab someone to death…in public…in the middle of a few hundred people.
Sometimes it's stabbin' time.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
That was before 2001
Ray Ray was mid-90s Canes.
@Ross, loss in 2000 was to Washington, I think. And yes, Miami’s team had guys that dominated college and were successful in the pros. Contrast that with the other alleged “best team ever” – 2004/5 USC – who’s skill players have been busts with the limited exception of Reggie Bush, culminating with today’s cut of Leinart.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
No I was talking about Ray Ray's limo driver
Ray Ray didn’t stab nobody…it was that craazy limo driver.
USC is the biggest culprit there.
There were also some Oklahoma and Florida teams that got big upped pretty heavily and a lot of those guys went on to pretty unimpressive pro careers.
And I knew it was a Pac 10 team that knocked off Miami in 2000. Couldn’t remember who. Still think they were better than Oklahoma or Florida State that year (hell, they probably beat FSU earlier that year, didn’t they?). And that 2002 title game… ugh. Luckeyes + McGahee’s ghastly knee injury + that fucking call in OT…
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
USC is absolutely the biggest culprit
It’s shocking, really, how completely unstoppable their skill players, WRs especially, looked in college just to get the pros and do absolutely nothing.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Steve Smith has been pretty good.
But other than that… zilch.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Allright, I'm going to put the PC down and crawl into bed so Wisconsin can put me to sleep.

Is Trent Dilfer in the booth in this Fresno-Cincy game?
Along with the dulcet tones of Pam Ward?

Certainly sounds like it
He get fired from analyzing the NFL?

Maybe he's doing double-duty since the pros haven't started yet.
Kind of a weird conflict of interest, though, what with him being a former player at Fresno. Then again, that doesn’t stop Spielman or Herbie from doing OSU games or Griese doing Purdue games, etc.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Or Craig James from calling the Alamo Bowl
Yet Herbstreit can’t make predictions on Game Day for the game he will call because THAT would be a conflict-of-interest
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Yes.
They have a virtual homefield, a punishing offense (way unlike anything Boise sees in the WAC) full of good athletes. Their defense is the biggest question mark, but Bud Foster usually puts together solid defenses, so that shouldn’t be a huge worry.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Biggest problem for Tech
is that defense will be young. Foster’s defenses are predicated on blitzing from all over (the anti-Norm), which can open them up to being shredded by a competent offense, doubly so when they’re young. And as punishing as Tech’s offense is, it isn’t built for coming from behind
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
especially with a guy that can see the field as well as Moore
doesn’t matter what type of defense that kid goes up against, he finds open men

I'm not sure he has ever had to do it under pressure though

because the WAC

Yeah, true.
They need to keep it close and, ideally, get an early lead.

PAKIBOMB GOES BOOM, MOTHERFUCKERS.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
just Northwestern squeeked one out today
and look at Persa’s numbers:
19/21 222 yds 3 tds 0 int
17 carries 82 yards
good god
did they have 304 yards of offense then?
by Pain in the Sash on Sep 4, 2010 11:44 PM CDT up reply actions
wow
so gameplan: contain persa and repeat?
by Pain in the Sash on Sep 4, 2010 11:46 PM CDT up reply actions
their running backs
certainly don’t pose a threat.
I guess I told him. Nobody messes with Adam We...
Arby Fields had 10 carries for -7 yards.
I believe he’s their starter.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Shouldn't be too hard with our DE's as long as Nielsen, Prater and Hyde play decent

hahaha
this is a pass that goes backwards and out of the endzone, which we call a safety.
Thanks Mike Hall
Mike Hall is actually pretty funny
Much better than some of those “experts” at tWWL

I appreciated the "love it or leave it" shout-out, too.

He must be a reader
Because during that highlight he said…remember Paki O’Meara. Uh…Mike you’re presenting to an entire Big Ten viewership here…no…they don’t. Hell a lot of Iowa people barely remember Paki O’Meara.
We need to figure out if we have another FotP in the media out there now

Not sure about that
until he drops a “PAKIbomb” or “APAKIalypse” reference, then he’s using fairly run-of-the mill references
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
When he asks...
Remember (Michigan’s 4th string RB)…during a highlight…I’ll be deconvinced…until then…
Hey Mike Hall…how’s it going?
Sure was a tough break losing that game show on ESPN huh?
Oh you won…what about the guy that was way better with the long hair and the cool Labatt Blue rap?
john clay
is as big as our offensive linemen. holy fat.
I guess I told him. Nobody messes with Adam We...
at least minnesota
will have the edge there

How is a d-bag like Lavar Arrington
more of a B10 icon than Tom Brands. Correct yourself, BTN.
I guess I told him. Nobody messes with Adam We...
They have a third-string RB named J. White, too?
Goddamn, they copy everything about us…
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Their J White is small, fast and a slasher too
Not only copying names but copying running styles. Maybe he caught a plane after the Iowa game to make it to Vegas before kickoff?
