4 hours 22 minutes to game time.

I honestly haven't been this excited for a Husker game since 2006 Texas game in Lincoln.

Does Langsdorf learn from the Illinois game?

Or does Tommy make 50 pass attempts?

It seems like Langs is learning on some things.....however I still don't trust him not to have some WTH moments.

2 hours 43 minutes to go before the beginning of Iowa's demise.

I thought this was the beginning of Iowa's demise

On November 16, 1889; the two teams met in Grinnell to play the first game of intercollegiate football west of the Mississippi River.[3] Iowa lost, 24–0, and a rematch between the two teams in Iowa City was canceled due to poor weather

We are still going to pass and I'm fine with that. I just hope we don't throw it 50 times. I'm okay with 30, if it's working.

More important is NOT forcing the passing game if it is not working.

Hawkeye trivia:

One of Iowa's best teams was in 1985 when Chuck Long was QB.* Iowa's offensive coordinator in 1985? Bill Snyder.

Was he at a party in Lincoln last week?

We definitely will try to throw against them in the first quarter without King.

Run the ball, stop the run, win the game.

Their CB's cheat a lot trying to get turnovers. Look for some double moves to burn them deep. Also a lot of Cross and TA running off of the bye.

I've never wanted to beat anyone this bad in a while. Probably as bad as texas. I can't even browse their boards without getting irritated and wanting to create a profile and say something.

 

[Terrabus]

I'm really excited about this game. This is the first game I will be able to watch of the season because I've had to work for every one thus far.

Plus, I'm excited about the growth of this team and staff. Things are clicking for them and they're moving forward. Sure, Iowa is a good team this year, but they are still just a team. And if I were to compare the spirit of a team, The Big Red would overwhelm anything those Iowiegans can come up with.
