I have Andy Hamilton from the Iowa City newspaper lined up for a Q & A ... anything in particular you want fired his way?
 

What is the primary element of Iowa's game that Minnesota needs to take away for a chance to win at Kinnick?
 

The Hawkeyes defense leads the nation in interceptions and Weber has thrown more picks than tds. Is this matchup as much of a nightmare as I think it is?
 

dollar says Weber does not throw a pick this weekend.
 

How common are expressions of intra-species affection in Johnson County?
 


Why does Ferentz still have a job considering he told his players to clean up a rape scene? Why does Ferentz think he's above the law in Johnson County by telling a rape victim to not report it to the authorities?
 

In 2007 after the Purdue game, there were screams for Ferentz and/or his Offensive Coordinator to go. Last year there were still people screaming for the Offensive Coordinator to go after Michigan State. Is this stuff just "internet based or was there really an uproar?
 





Question:

Why do tree limbs all face south on the MN/Iowa border?

(if my supicions are right, it's because IA SUCKS)

Sure he was cleared of any wrong-doing by an independent investigation, but dammit, I heard on THE INTERNET that he did something wrong, so it must be the truth!

I'm assuming you mean inter-species affection.

I personally very much enjoy intra-species affection and try to engage in it as often as possible.
 

Is U of I considering replacing the grass in Kinnick with turf? I heard the sidelines are getting chewed up by their cheerleaders. We chose field turf for TCF in order to prevent this from happening here during Iowa's biannual visit.
 



Does/did he or Iowa fans in general really believe that they could compete with top 5 teams such as Florida, Alabama, Texas. If so HOW?!?!?
 

how come nobody has painted a tigerhawk on the water tower? i think that would be a good idea.

Tell him about Mbakwe being suspended for the basketball team with a trial in the future and then ask him about Clayborn playing with an upcoming trial.

Let's see, in out last 2 against Florida, we are 1-1 and should be 2-0; we are 1-1 against TX with a blowout and close loss. Further, we are 1-0 vs LSU, 1-0 vs. South Carolina and 1-0 vs, TN. I know this isn't quite up their with being 1-0 vs. SDSU and 1-1 vs. NDSU...but we are trying.

Then SCHEDULE them! We constantly here how Kinnick is always full (unlike Carver-Hawkeye where you can get tickets thrown in by buying a Coke..) of 70,000 plus hysterical fans shelling out top dollar to see their Hawkeyes play. So you've got the damn money as you never tire of talking about. You also never tried of talking about that "lousy non-conference' schedule of the Mason years. Well take a look at the upcoming Non-Conference game now.

If you're so damn sure of your status as a National Power then go ahead and SCHEDULE somebody who actually has BEEN in a Championship game in the past 10 years. That's your favorite timeline I know. Brewster for all his faults has USC and Texas on upcoming home and homes. The mighty money -making Hawkeyes have.....Pitt?

Great record, great year; enjoy it. Just try scheduling some real games in the regular season okay?

Oh by the way the Gophers are 6-0 versus hated South Dakota State :D, 7-1 versus the Mighty Bison :mad: but 1-0 versus Nothern Iowa!:clap:

Those stats are just fantastic, but I don't see the relevance to 2009 Iowa vs. 2009 Florida, 2009 Texas, or 2009 Alabama. I can bring up how the Gophers beat the Buckeyes and the Nittany Lions a decade ago, but that means nothing when we're talking about this year's team.

I'm not saying Iowa couldn't beat any of those teams, as they have already won several games this year that they shouldn't, but you know that in a bowl game against any of those teams Iowa would be a 2-TD underdog, at least.

And Minnesota is 6-1 vs. NDSU, 6-0 vs. SDSU. To keep up with the "6" theme, we also have 6 national championships, as opposed to Iowa's zero.

I don't care about what Iowa did earlier this decade, but damned if I'm not going to brag endlessly about Minnesota being really good during the Roosevelt administration.

Please point out where I (or anyone else on this site) has said that Minnesota is good this year because we have six national championships.

Thanks in advance!
 


Yes ... it's in the bag ... will be posted shortly.
