Anybody remember what the line was against South Carolina last year?

When Barta says "potentially everybody" will be at full-strength, does that include Dace Richardson?

Since the posts aren't numbered, Marc will have a fun time counting to 1000.

Vandenberg exceeded my wildest dreams for this week. This game really came down to a couple of plays, mostly dropped balls, that were the difference between winning and losing. The national press will probably slap themselves on the back again and drop us in the polls again, but I would not want to be Minnesota next week and we will definitely be a tough bowl opponent.

I was actually more upset about last week's loss than today's. I am extremely proud to be a Hawkeye fan and I am holding my head high.

Win, lose or draw, I am a Hawkeye fan and I am proud of this team. We have a tough play next week against Ohio State, but I will be cheering just as loud and hopefully in person. With all the naysayers giggling at our misfortune and slapping each other on the back saying "I told you so", I am not going to waiver in my support when my team needs me the most. If I lived near Iowa City, and I didn't have to work, I would be at the practice field cheering them on.

Although we may not win, Vanderberg will look a lot better this week and be better prepared for his most important game against Minnesota at home.

Go Hawks!

Norm Parker is one tough cookie.

Do we have to run every single first down the first three quarters to set up the play-action in the fourth quarter? This is like the third game in a row that the opponent has put 7 or 8 guys in the box and we kept running on first down for nothing, which forced us to pass on second down. I know that other teams are forcing Stanzi to beat them with his arm, but geez, we were so predictable that even my dog was hiding her head on first downs.

I agree that Mossbrucker should be getting some game experience. He should have kicked the extra point on the last touchdown for sure. Maybe KF doesn't want to shake Murray's confodence any more.

Can we PLEASE stop RUNNING every first down? A little play calling variation would be nice.

The was one of the most Iowa clutch drives I have ever seen. It ranks up there with the Christiansen pass to beat LSU in the bowl game.

I said it after the Penn State win - this will be Iowa and Kirk Ferentz's "Signature Season".

Can we one of the next two games going away? Please? These close games are killing me.

I hope that all the guys that got banged up today weren't hurt too bad.

I love the fact that Iowa continues to fly under the radar despite being undefeated and solidly ranked in both the AP and BCS standings. Maybe Boise State and Cincinnati are running a little interference for us. Barely beating UNI and Arkansas State may have been the best things that could happen to Iowa because it may have led our opponents to take us less seriously.

When those clowns doing the ESPN commentary were running their mouths about how Iowa should be 3-3 and about how "they are who we thought they were" I wanted to reach through the TV and slap them. They were still running their smack all the way into the fourth quarter.
