It really sucks to be Iowa this week.

There was only one game down the home stretch that concerned me - and this wasn't it with or without Stanzi.

Out biggest opponent next week is post-big game lethargy. But with so many players doing their last game in the Shoe - I don't see a problem.

Oh, and the fact that we are playing for the Big Ten title.

As we have seen year after year, JT has some wrinkles in the playbook for Michigan. I think he needs to pull them out a week early.

With Stanzi Iowa was the most overrated team in the country. At home we just need to show up to play and we can handle them straight up just fine.

While I think that is true, no need to hold anything back with the Rose Bowl on the line. I also think that is true every week, but as we have seen almost every year, JT has wrinkles in the offense in the last game. This year, this is the last game.

Iowa as an undefeated team was a fraud, but don't kid yourselves into thinking they are no good. Their defensive line will be the best we've faced all year. Adrian Clayborne is a beast; he and Cam Heyward are the best two d-linemen in the conference. Our O-line will be strongly tested on Saturday.

Don't know when they started doing it, but I know they've definitely been doing it for at least a few years. I remember hearing it in 2006 against OSU.
One of the blessings of being in a state with a short name.

Massachusetts fans have no chance of making this work.

Right on. I am as hopeful as any fan, but I keep replaying that Purdue game in my head. I am less worried right now about Iowa than playing in the XXXXhouse on Nov. 21.

That water boy they hired for a coach knows that the only way he can save his job is to beat Ohio State. If he is any kind of coach, he will be in a frenzy all week. Thing about it, they're gonna get their rectums handed to them next week vs. Wisky, and they will need one more win to get to a freaking bowl.... so they will be all in for the Buckeyes.

But back to Iowa.... the lethargy scares me, too. It's waaayyyyyyy too early to be throwing roses around.

Focus, focus, focus.

That said, OSU 33, Iowa 10.

Go Bucks!

Does their win against Delaware St count? I thought they were 1AA, but maybe not.

It doesn't really matter, becasue as you say they are going to get their a**es handed to them the last two games.
