I just hope the Hawks don't look past Nebraska to the BIG10 Championship game. Nebraska has been a tad below mediocre in 2015 so it would be natural to look down on the Huskers as an inferior team. But I have no doubt that Nebraska will rise up and play beyond their woeful new normal for the Iowa game...it means a lot the the UNL program and overwhelmed new staff. A neutral observer would assume that Iowa will manhandle this years below average bunch from Lincoln, but I suspect Nebraska will rally and put up a valiant effort and keep the game reasonably close at halftime and only fade late and manage to stay within 2 TD's of the Hawkeyes. I'm expecting a great game and a great effort from this once proud program from the wrong side of the Missouri River.
Black Friday looming large for both Iowa and Nebraska

Ferentz is far too experienced to let his team overlook anyone which is one of the reasons Iowa is undefeated.
U actually do, especially with the bye week looming. If TA can keep his mistakes in check that in itself is worth a 14 point swing.

I agree he is pretty even keel and the only thing on his mind is getting past Purdue on Saturday.
One game at a time has been the team mantra this year.
Nebraska will win again to make it 4 out of 5 against Iowa since joining the B1G. That's the ratio I expected, too.
Lol, why the hell not? The team is finally pretty healthy and look completely different. I fully expect to win.
I love the arrogance. If neb was 10-0 they would laugh at our record of 5-6. It's all about perception. They have better players so they will win. In the 90's it was a different story facing Florida teams. Don't get me wrong, I think neb could defiantly win, but their absolute arrogance is mind blowing. I've heard radio announcers say Iowa will always be Iowa no matter what. They even attacked Iowa people (93.7).
Perception is a hard thing to change. Right tommy A!!!

Lonehawk you might want to read the posts by your cohorts then we can discuss arrogance. It goes both ways so don't come here and act like it's all one sided.
