It ain't easy being a Hawkeye running back.

If your not blowing out your ACL, the weed will get you.

Wising ill will on young men and/or loving it when it happens is uncool.

Actually, I was speaking about the Iowa RB situation....not that this kid got in trouble....

But keep thinking you have everything and everyone figured out on this board.....it's comical.

Wishing for the guy to get hurt...very uncool. Wishing for the guy to get caught if he's breaking the law...very cool.

Wierd voodoo stuff going on over in Iowa City concerning their runningbacks the past few years.

Agreed, was just talking to my friend who is an Iowa booster about this....he seriously thinks there is a curse for RBs at Iowa....I don't know if you can argue that there isn't. It's like the Madden curse, as much as you don't want to believe it, something freaky goes on with it.

They still beat us pal... 1-9 aint exactly getting it done

Isn't that 2 already for this season? I think one got hurt in spring ball. A couple years ago they were down to #5 or #6 by the end of the season, IIRC.

I hear the waterboy is going to tryout. Although he has been recently cited for "J" Walking.

Even if that law is insanely hypocritical?

...27 RB since 2002, that blows my mind. As much as i want Iowa to blow, and get their teeth kicked in by Nebraska every year...this imo is bad. I wish for Iowa to be successful and have the legends div. come down between us and them late in november.....it'll never be that way if they have to change their style and game to compensate for another loss at RB


The rivalry with Iowa will be there on the hate level ...but not on the compition level if something doesnt change ...and that makes me sad

Irrelevant. He broke the law as it is now. If He/anyone doesn't like it change it. Until then follow the rules or pay the price and don't whine.

Makes me insanely happy. The less Iowa is competitive against ISU and NU, the better. I want both to beat them by 70 every year. I want to lord it over everyone here, and I NEVER want to have to fly a Squawkeyes flag in my yard for a week. I want to see my NU and ISU flags flying in my neighbor's yard for two weeks every fall. Speaking of...I better get myself shiny new Cyclones flag before the season!
