**Official 2020 Iowa Hawkeye Football Offseason Thread**

[CurdMan]

Howe has gone from the Iowa City Press Citizen to HawkeyNation when it was with Scout to converting that to HawkeyeInsider(?) when Miller took HawkeyeNation away from scout, to starting a website with Harty that Harty has since changed only to end up back at HawkeyeNation.

That seems like a ridiculous amount of effort just to keep a job covering the same college team.

Imagine going into business with Pat fuckin Harty

Schedule coming out.

 

[JD720]

We add Maryland as a crossover game (labor day weekend) and end the season with Wisconsin and at OSU.

 

[Dr. Zaius]

 

[Dr. Zaius]

I’m thinking 7-3

 

[newsbreaker]

Ending with Wisconsin and at Ohio State? Oh, well, that should be fun.

 

[BuffettHawk]

See y’all in Pasadena!

 

[BluesHawk]

I'm thinking 10-0

 

[Shawneemicks]

I'm thinking 10-0

*13-0

[gable_guy]

Whose idea was it to use grey and light grey for home/away? Was it a canine?

 

[Alan Lomax]

Do this every year. Expand the playoffs.

 

[Greg Obrecht]

7-3 fo sho

 

[The Tin Man]

Fuck you Michigan. We’ll take your year end rivalry.

 

[Greg Obrecht]

[hawkeyealum]

Those last four games are a tough stretch

 

[brantshawks]

Staring at 6-0 start to hopefully finishing with 7-3.

 

[Stu Beagle]

Well our two toughest games are the least likely to happen

 

[Shawneemicks]

Those last four games are a tough stretch

it is but probably better at the end, right?

 

[Pedro]

Fuck you Michigan. We’ll take your year end rivalry.

Yeah, that's quite the slap in the dick for Michigan.

 

[Herky823]

Staring at 6-0 start to hopefully finishing with 7-3.

Wow. Just wow. I hope Iowa finishes 10-0. Which 3 of those teams do you like better than Iowa?

 

[hawkeyealum]

it is but probably better at the end, right?

Probably.

 

[CamelTones]

Lol at Rutgers first 5 games.

 

[Monster]

Staring at 6-0 start to hopefully finishing with 7-3.

Start 7-0, Coronavirus ends the season prematurely, Iowa national champions.

 

[BngHawk]

Expectations

 

[Pedro]

The Gophers seem to have the easiest schedule. Their only road test is @ Wisconsin.

 

[KitKatApples]

Why not just add two more games? Play everyone but one team

 

[Monster]

Expectations

 

[douglasbader]

The most important thing on that schedule is, yet again, somehow Wisconsin ended up with a fucking joke of a schedule.

Doesn't matter though, the fall season isn't happening and will be moved to the spring. 2 star players already opted out yesterday and many more will follow, so might as well move this to the spring when you can buy time and at least have the possibility of fans in the stands if a vaccine is out and distributed at that point.

 

[MikeyJoe]

Minnesota has a crazy easy schedule.

 

[BngHawk]

Fuck your doom and gloom, the season is happening until it isn’t. Until then I will enjoy the idea of Iowa football coming soon.

 

[douglasbader]

Minnesota has a crazy easy schedule.

How? They start out @Michigan State, Michigan, Iowa, @Wisconsin, @Nebrantska

That could be a 0-5 start for them. PJ's teams usually don't start well either. Look at how close they were to losing all their games to non-Power 5 teams early last year.

Home/away splits. And MSU isn't going to be any good.

 

[Alan Lomax]

Everyone else in the West has an easy schedule! Iowa’s is hardest but far. There, fellas. I covered it.

Yep just need 93 paragraphs spanning 11 posts from Doug to wrap it up.

No need, fall season isn't happening.

 

[CUIHAWK]

Bring it in!

Ol Brett participating in open mic day

 

[Stu Beagle]

No need, fall season isn't happening.

The SEC is 100% playing this Fall

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Deleted. What did it say?

 

[douglasbader]

Not necessarily. They will go with the crowd if the crowd decides to move.

 

[fuisu98]

So we get PSU and Wisky coming off Bye weeks? Thats pretty sweet.

 

[CamelTones]

They were going to get Penn State and Ohio State back to back on the road with each coming off a bye so I guess this is a little better.

 

[Talkin' Goat]

Looks like Nebrantska’s tough stretch got moved earlier in the season. Which is nice.

 

[Dr. Zaius]

Deleted. What did it say?

It was just the schedule. Looks like they deleted then reposted. IYAGTPSALHTBTLIU

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

I won't be totally heartbroken if the season is cancelled on 11/15.

 

[Pedro]

It seems odd to me to have so many teams with a bye right before their last game of the season.
