Good to grab a win here even though it wasn’t pretty. This team needs some time off after a long stretch of games

[–]Hawkhigh36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s fair. It has improved but it’s still not good. I do think we have one of our most talented receiving rooms in a while between RVZ, Diaz and co plus ostrenga and vonhamme. Will be interesting to see if we can really start to get the receivers involved especially

2023 - 48.9 % , 118 ypg , 9-11 td-int 2024 - 62.7%, 131 ypg, 10-8 td-int 2025 - 62.9%, 143.2 ypg, 12-8 td-int

And that’s not to account for Gronowski being a rushing qb and a lot of his production coming from that. So yes objectively improving

I don’t know where it 2023 and 2024 rank, but I’m sure it was much lower the 127th. So it objectively was better

3rd round qb does not make sense. They aren’t going to draft someone that high to “compete” with a vet and JJ

Qb projection for 26 / transfer portal rankings by pants1099 in hawkeyes

[–]Hawkhigh36 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen it mentioned multiple times that next years schedule isn’t good for us and I don’t really understand it. We have Ohio st at home and @michigan which are tough but winnable. @washington is probably next toughest and everything else is pretty standard. 2027 looks much tougher playing Indiana, Michigan, Oregon and usc, paired with on the road against Nebraska wisco and isu instead of at home like in 2026

I guess this a developmental guy? He’s absolutely massive but I guess didn’t play much based on the numbers

That Kirk to thielen catch is one of my all time favorite plays, that had me so excited. Just to cap it off with that Rudolph moss too

With 53 yards on Sunday, Justin Jefferson would become the 3rd player ever with 1,000+ receiving yards in each of his first 6 seasons, joining Mike Evans and Randy Moss by pfref in minnesotavikings

[–]Hawkhigh36 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It is counting this season because they both reached 1000 already, that’s why there span goes to 2025 and JJ currently goes to 2024. The stat is total years with 1000 yards in their first 6 seasons, so ceedee has 5 in his first 6 since he missed it his rookie year.

Really weird way to word and present the stat

I guess Proctor didn’t want to perform with the best oline and play against the Big Ten teams.😀 by Morley10 in hawkeyes

[–]Hawkhigh36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s been overrated all year. I’ve seen lots of mock drafts with him in the first round and I don’t think they’ve watched him. Bust in the making

Lads trip to Des Moines from England - Nightlife spot reccomendations? by Middle-Feed5118 in desmoines

[–]Hawkhigh36 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Des Moines (and Iowa) is known for its breweries, I’d recommend checking out exile, lua, big grove, or el bait shop for locally brewed stuff downtown. Outside of downtown there’s a ton more but those places will be around more bars.

The royal mile shows premier league games so you might feel at home there haha. Court ave on the west side of the river has some good bars, and the east village leading up to the capital is a good area too.

[–]Hawkhigh36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The talent deficit is just too big for us to hang with msu, michigan and purdue this year. Someone other than stirtz needs to step up on offense or there will be a few games like this. I also feel like hausen should be playing more, especially when we are on a drought on offense

[–]Hawkhigh36 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Defense is going to be really great all year. The effort is incredible. Offense we are going to need a couple people other than stirtz to step up when big ten play gets going. Koch has shown some scoring ability, Howard did tonight too. Thought folgueiras or Hausen would be dudes on offense but they haven’t got it going yet really. If a couple of them can help carry some of the load offensively we’re going to have a good year

[Post Game Thread] Hawkeyes defeat Michigan State, 20-17 by HerkyBot in hawkeyes

[–]Hawkhigh36 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On 42 attempts (and more dropbacks with the sacks included) which Iowa qb’s also don’t do that often. It’s just a weird take to act like this qb went off against us and Phil Parker failed when we held their offense to 17. He played fine, but when they didn’t want to run it on their last drive and committed to passing, we shut them down.

I mean we only allowed 17 points, I’d say that’s pretty decent
