**Official Minnesota vs. Iowa Football Thread - 2:30pm - CBS**

[fossilhawk]

Who was it that was saying we hadn't kicked the shit out of Minnesota in Iowa City in years?

Show yourself, go the sculpture park with lube, and do the same defeatist bullshit in two weeks just to be sure.

 

[Kamala]

Nice little Saturday

 

[BBK]

Big Iowa win and Illinois got their ass whipped

 

[MikeyJoe]

I hope it's 20 degrees at kickoff on November 8th.

 

[Herky823]

Pj is one of the fun ones to embarrass

 

[douglasbader]

What a wonderful afternoon, and now it sets up 2 weeks of fun and another opportunity to make some noise and keep hope alive.

Iowa kicking the shit out of Minnesota and watching Iowa State fall apart at home will never not be fun.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

Who woulda thought Iowa would be bowl eligible before ISU

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

 

[douglasbader]

A bunch of teams lost or might lose at the bottom of the Top 25 (USF / Texas / Illinois), so with that ass whooping of a 5-2 team should be able to be ranked this week.

Doesn't really matter though as the first CFP rankings come out on Nov. 4th and might be ranked in the Top 20 going into the Oregon game.

 

[douglasbader]

Nice win. I'm happy. But we're still gonna lose 3 more games. Love our run game but the D isn't good enough to overcome our shitty passing game and almost embarrassing kicking game. I completely disagree with those who said the D was great tonight. Gave up way too much on the ground against a team that was less than zero threat to complete a pass downfield and almost zero threat to complete any pass. Toss up game next week, extremely likely to lose @ USC, highly likely to lose against Oregon, and likely to lose @ Nebby. Bring the bows, bitches

Hey @Bovert, I think the defense is pretty good and Minnesota wasn't a toss up game it seems.

 

[Rolo Tomassi]

It appears that the Hawkeyes have hit their stride, both offensively and defensively, at the absolute perfect time to do it.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Seems awfully high against a team that's probably pretty comparable to us

Oops

 

[Lee Beevers]

Oops

I did try and share about Minnesotas road defilings!

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Should be either noon on Fox or 230 on CBS for Oregon. Us and Indiana at Penn State are the only reasonable options

 

[Finnegan]

Beating Wisconsin and Minnesota by a combined 78-3 is sculpture park worthy.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

let’s make it 120-3 after Nebrantska

 

[L. Wade Childress]

PJ is actually growing on me. He’s been decent up there yet unable to beat their hated rival.

 

[Creed]

A rigorous buttfucking indeed. That one was for Lois!

And I’m growing ever more frustrated with that bullshit loss (again) to those animal fellators from Ames. The only way to offset that is a win versus Oregon.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

That was sexually satisfying

 

[BBK]

That was sexually satisfying

Just like your father

 

[MoneyPit]

 

[SteadyEddy]

I wish Minnesota fans were more passionate as it would have made the win more exciting for me as I was out and about bar hopping. But most except their fate and position in the grand scheme of college football.

 

[MikeyJoe]

Did you guys notice that scowling ginger Minnesota fan a few times?

 

[gable_guy]

Odd spot for a Blazing Saddles reference

 

[Fair and Balanced]

Did you guys notice that scowling ginger Minnesota fan a few times?

lol I did. He looked like a Nebrantska fan as they have an disproportionate number of redheaded losers. It has to have something to do with historic migration patterns but whatever it is it ain’t working for them.

 

[Stu Beagle]

More 40 burgers plz

 

[Hawk&Balls]

All hail!

 

[Stu Beagle]

Wetjen could not play another snap and be an All American

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

That and the pitch out play to the back side are going to drive me nuts. I think we are better on the lines, but can’t afford to throw away 14 points due to stupidity again.

Phil was also sick and fucking tired of that play.

 

[Matt]

Never in my life would I have thought I would pay anything to have pulled out a win/game over Indiana over Iowa State in football.

 

[Bonner]

Should be either noon on Fox or 230 on CBS for Oregon. Us and Indiana at Penn State are the only reasonable options

It’s going to be 11 Big Noon Kickoff!!

 

[Dr. Zaius]

2:30 games are awesome. Watched my son play soccer at 11 in the metro and was walking into Kinnick 10min before kick then followed the Gopher motorcade home.

 

[The Full Monte]

Pj is one of the fun ones to embarrass

He was surprisingly non-douchey in the post-game until someone asked him why they’ve been unable to close the gap with Iowa. He mentioned “winning down here 2 years ago” like 3 times in his response

 

[Dr. Zaius]

Boat racing the Gophers….also awesome

 

[Dr. Zaius]

NBC just showed the hawks as a playoff contender

All the way to Minneapolis ?

 

[Dr. Zaius]

All the way to Minneapolis ?

Maybe it wasn’t them, but not sure who else would have 3 charter buses followed by state troopers driving on I-80 west to the DSM airport

 

[WCFHawkeye]

Would think Minnesota would fly into Cedar Rapids? IDK, but Des Moines doesn't make a lot of sense. But neither does Minnesota.

They had 7 busses all with Minnesota plates. Guessing they drove.

 

[Dr. Zaius]

Yeah…I don’t know who I was following. They seemed important tho

 

[KitKatApples]

That’s a long ride home

bragging about a win that was a bullshit miracle of a gift call through review, should have zero wins over Iowa. Poor Floyd.

 

[cloudhawk]

Good- they deserve it

 

[Nobody]

Rather enjoyable how everyone around us just decided to get shitfaced mid-2nd quarter, for very obvious and very differing reasons. Not a bad little Saturday!

 

[Hawk&Balls]

He was all over on special teams

 

[Stomper15]

 

[douglasbader]

I gave a few playful "FUCK NESTOR!" jabs today, but can anyone blame him for leaving? He wasn't going to start and had the chance to start at Minnesota and has been good for them. They are going to win maybe 8 games and he got some NIL money.

He likely made the right choice.

 

[maxinquaye]

Nestor took his Whoopin today for his transgressions. We’re square by my estimation.

I like to think that once he showed up at Minny, PJ had him come to his office and explain how the Iowa D works. Nestor told him everything and PJ just said “that’s it? we already knew all that. goddammit.”

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I thought Nestor was pretty good today. Even on the TD it was just a great play by RVZ.
