**2025 Iowa Football Season Thread**

We could also use some snow and polar vortex like temps in the early November.

Very true, Eugene weather is pretty darn similar to Iowa City this time of year. Late November is the ideal time for them to visit Iowa

 

[CamelTones]

Indiana is very good. It’s also true their schedule the last 2 years couldn’t have worked out better for them. Their non conference scheduling is a joke.

 

[Pedro]

Probably the greatest improvement I saw was the success of our first down plays. 2nd down and short seems to be really advantageous to moving the ball down the field. We should do this more often.

 

[Dr. Zaius]

I like the winning part. We should do more of that too.

 

[The Full Monte]

 

[Pedro]

Just a remarkable improvement.

 

[douglasbader]

Iowa ranked #17 on Sagarin and #18 on Massey. I'm guessing this is where they show up on the first CFP rankings.

[RazHawk]

Iowa seemed to stick out to him:

 

[BBK]

@Rolo Tomassi Bot's wife's tits are #1 in the Sagarin rankings

 

[douglasbader]

Iowa seemed to stick out to him:

They should, that is impressive and along with all the other stats and measurements from any reputable source, Iowa is an objectively good team.

Not going to be easy, but all the opportunity is right there for Iowa in the coming weeks.

 

[Truant]

@Rolo Tomassi Bot Bot's wife's tits are #1 in the Sagarin rankings

I thought they were sagging down in the rankings.

Kakert just posted that if Indiana wins this week Iowa-Oregon will be 2:30.

I don’t get why FOX wouldn’t automatically want the Oregon-Iowa game.

 

[douglasbader]

I don’t get why FOX wouldn’t automatically want the Oregon-Iowa game.

Honestly, I'm guessing a Noon local kickoff between the hottest team in college football and a traditional blue blood playing spoiler is a better ratings draw at that time than 11am local time for Iowa and 9am local time for Oregon kickoff.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

I can't imagine that's going to be a happy atmosphere in State college

 

[Silky Johnson]

I’ll be mildly surprised if Penn State doesn’t give at least one of Indiana or Ohio State a game. That’s still a very talented roster and playing spoiler is all they have.

 

[KitKatApples]

Perhaps an unhappy valley?

Fox may not have the top selection this week. It could be CBS.

 

[Stu Beagle]

FWIW, the SeC has dominated the B10 in Tv ratings this year

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Fox may not have the top selection this week. It could be CBS.

The talk on Saturday was that fox had the top pick

 

[Hawkeye_Pierce]

I'll be in glorious Kinnick for the Oregon game. Since I'm driving Saturday AM, I'm really hoping it isn't an 11am kickoff. Last game I went to was the PSU game where we briefly thought we were a national contender.

No chance to go Friday and stay the night/weekend?

He probably didn't even think about that. Way to help out!

You know I can beat you up, right?

I’m going to go to the basketball game Friday and the football game on Saturday.

Atta boy!!!

 

[Bonner]

Not sure if posted, but Oregon is a 6.5 favorite with a over/under of 42.5

This joke has already been used on another poster’s wife, by you. Banworthy IMO.

Your face is banworthy. IMHO!!1!!1

saw this too, and was a little surprised by it.. thinking though overall, the SEC has had more interesting games thus far

You’d know better than I. Selection order is a fairly well-kept secret.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Much funnier when used on the basketball team

 

[douglasbader]

Ok @Mr. Hawk , for USC time to go all-in or all out. USC website released tickets in the Club 400 level for $375. If not, wait and get a ticket in 103 or 203 sections.

 

[Mr. Hawk]

Prices similar to edging. I like it.

 

[Mr. Hawk]

103 and 203 appear to be on the goal line, Mouse. Seat Geak has aisle tix on the 40.

I'm fine with that in those sections, all the Iowa fans will be in that area.

 

[Mr. Hawk]

Ain't no Iowa fans gonna be sitting with me in the club section, Mouse. That's a good point. I'd probably gel better with the USC peeps anyway, as I'm kind of a big deal.

and also never attend football games

They had coordinator press conferences today. If you have an interest and free time, check out Lester’s. No coach speak with him, almost shockingly thorough in his answers.

as previously mentioned, Lester is a very likable and engaging guy, unless you like the forward pass and engaging wide receivers.

 

[KitKatApples]

Yea, he really brought all that to an abrupt halt at Iowa

We're going to be in the area for a funeral next week, so I'm going to take my son to the Oregon game. What's the strategy? Just buy now or wait until closer to the game?

I realize this is a tired theme and I've already tried jamming the computer/phone up my ass mercilessly to no avail.

 

[gable_guy]

I’d wait. They’ll drop

 

[KitKatApples]

Prices weren't bad yesterday

Buy now. There are a few hundred great seats they released, saw 4 on the 50 yard line in Row 12 Section 126 for sale. Plenty on the opposite side as well.
