It all comes down to discipline, you can have all the great athletes in the world, but if they do not do the little things, you will lose.

EIU does not hurt themselves, and they just play great solid ball, no one is doing more than his job. Its not pretty to watch, but its effective as hell and we need to start doing more of it.

ISU won a Fiesta Bowl because of it.

Some on CF called that 'boring'.

Came to see if there is any intelligent conversation in here. I see MOST are
Seeing what rest of nation is seeing. Iowa has one of if not the best D in nation and a solid team. Only ones making excuses and saying Iowa is not that good are the normal trolls on here that won’t give Iowa credit even if they won a national title.

Surprise.... a Panther Hawk lover.

If you can't see all the breaks Iowa has caught this season, I don't know what to tell you. Yes, they have created some of these breaks themselves, but many have just been freaky.

I may be wrong in my exact number but that 2011 Alabama defense, widely considered one of the top 3 to 5 defenses of all time had only 20 turnovers the entire year I believe. The pace the Hawks are on is insane. I am jealous. If we had this turnover output by our defense this season looks mighty different.

UNI fans don't have anything to watch other than one day out of the year, clearly nothing better to do.

You want to talk boring... go to a home UNI football game sometime. Yawn fest. You can pick almost anywhere in the Dome you want to sit. All the students go home every weekend because their campus is so lame and there's nothing to do.... and they even get in free, but still don't go. They'd rather stay home and watch the Hawks on TV.

Iowas defense is incredible. Iowas offense is still very suspect, but with their schedule their defense could carry them to a 12-0 season pretty easily.
