First team to get to 30 will win tonight, just like last Saturday
And winflop calls it again! Nicely done.

Apparently they weren't - to Iowa.
Thanks, same story for the Rose Bowl although i'm not sure either team is going to get there.

Au contraire mon frère, we will score more than 30 points against Iowa. I guaran-damn-tee it.

Woofing alert!! Woofing alert!!!!
Somehow I get the impression that there will be a much stronger impulse to woof at our Rose Bowl opponent than is typically the case for our other foes. There is a very discernible undercurrent of disrespect toward the Hawkeyes among some of the folks on this board, all couched in the appropriate caveats and platitudes about "staying focused". And, after all, The CardBoard is just a place to vent normal fan excitement and enthusiasm. But the parallel dynamics for the players are also in play. I think Shaw and the coaches will actually need to be very astute to pick up any signs of complacence arising from the pervasive sense that Iowa is not really all that serious a threat.

Yeah, like Northwestern wasn't a threat either.

Northwestern WASN'T a threat . . . . to Iowa
