Here's one for Condem and Happyiowan...I-O !
Fight, fight, fight for Iowa!

Great job shutting down the GT run game. Stanzi looked great on the play action.
Way to make the Big 10 proud. I think you guys should have won by at least 6 more points.

1. The game changing play...
was right after the Iowa fake FG (which was a great gutsy call) - the run stuff that ALMOST ended up being a safety. Pinned GT inside their 1, forced a 3rd and long, and set the tone for the rest of the game. GT had a chance to take the momentum right down the field and get the lead, but failed.

6. I thought it was the GT interception, trotsky.
If Stanzi doesn't throw that pass, I think we would of had a more sizable win.

2. Their defense was outstanding, especially in the first half
Georgia Tech could do absolutely nothing. If Stanzi can cut down on the dumb mistakes, he could be in the running for a Heisman next year.

I have to say, I never gave Ferentz much credit, but Iowa could be a contender next year, especially if they can knock off Ohio State.

4. We figure we have to spot the other team with 7 due to a hideous Stanzi pick.
But for what he has accomplished we'll gladly do it.

8. Thanks, a la.
I thinks I jumped the gun on the pool victor late last night. You still have a good shot. My bad.

10. Sweet!
I won the pool that I have going with a bunch of my grad school friends. I think I picked some different teams in the DU pool...

9. At the Sports Column (the greatest bar in IC) talk was of Clayborn, 1go.
He's decided to come back for his senior year. If I were he, I might want to think about that decision a little more. I think he's ready for Sunday football.

11. Belated congrats!!!
Yay Big Ten.

Of their losses, one (MSU) was probably due to attrition, one (MN) was by one point, and the other (Northwestern) was a closely played contest that might have gone into another OT had the coach elected to kick. I thought the Big Ten looked good this year.
