IU has had good luck against nearly all of Iowa's mediocre-to-bad teams (doesn't sound like much, but hell, look at what Minnesota did to us last year). The 69 point turnaround from 1997 to 1998 transition was the biggest score turnaround in NCAA history. Iowa won 62-0 in 1997 and IU won 14-7 in 1998.John Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00904933804078748933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783919656736552601.post-14130115738632793572007-09-26T18:57:00.000+03:302007-09-26T18:57:00.000+03:30I did not realize Indy had beat Iowa 5 times over ...I did not realize Indy had beat Iowa 5 times over the past 13 years. I do remember Antwan Randle El owning the Hawks.

So bring your hardhats, Hoosiers. We've got three or four freshman defenders who will blow up people -- only they're not good enough to get on the field.<BR/><BR/>On the bright side, for you, our free safety and middle linebacker may both be out, and that's a lot of uncertainty in the middle of the field for Mr. Hardy. And did I mention that both of our upperclassmen receivers got hurt and are likely done for the year? Last, our offense has two seniors who play, both running backs. <BR/><BR/>We went four wide with ... four freshman. They don't harmonize, but they're sticking their noses in there. Run-DJK looks like no one so much as Randle-El. Hope he gives you nightmares.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783919656736552601.post-59523076637669821942007-09-24T21:36:00.000+03:302007-09-24T21:36:00.000+03:30There is one somewhat active one (linked on the si...There is one somewhat active one (linked on the sidebar), so I guess my statement was not entirely correct, but he hasn't joined our group for whatever reason. It's probably for the best. Illinois and Purdue are the two fanbases that make it very difficult for me to play nicely. KatsTMill seems like a good guy, but I don't know if I could be civil to Purdue and Illinois bloggers at the same time.John Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00904933804078748933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5783919656736552601.post-51977420421077956862007-09-24T19:29:00.000+03:302007-09-24T19:29:00.000+03:30We may have our differences, but can we all agree ...We may have our differences, but can we all agree that it's pathetic that there are no Illini blogs?<BR/><BR/>Champaign sucks.<BR/><BR/>Good luck this week.Hawkeye Statehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02894608148962290244noreply@blogger.com
