BYU exposed Wisconsin as not a legit top 10 team. The Badger defense is not nearly as good as last season. I pick Iowa to win this game.

Hope you're right, but I'm not as confident in Iowa's offense. Iowa's offense has only looked good when Northern Illinois' defense wore down and against Northern Iowa. Even after NIU's defense wore down, they still didn't look that good.

Iowa's defensive front has looked really strong. Iowa State was good warm up. Montgomery is no Taylor, but he is one where Iowa needed 2+ guys to tackle. Wisconsin's OL is much better, so it will a tougher game. But ISU was good to prepare for Wisconsin.

I think Iowa's offense will find gaps and holes in Wisconsin and get a couple TDs, but I think Wisconsin will do just a little bit better. They line up against each other good. Should be a good game.

Right, but both of these teams would pound the feathers off the Ducks....

One thing Ferentz said that is interesting is the preparation for this game. Week 1, like all other teams, doesn't have any game film to study outside last year's. Week 2, Iowa had 13 plays to study from Iowa State. UNI had a bye in week 2, so Iowa had only 1 game to do game film with for UNI. Wisconsin will be the first game with multiple games to study, and he will have more than the previous 3 games combined.

I think Iowa is going to win this game. That place is tough to play regardless a day or night game. Furthermore, this is the one opportunity for the Hawkeyes to take the west away from the Badgers.

Through the beer assisted self analysis, I have discovered why I hate Iowa so much. 4 speeding tickets in my life and 3 of them were in Iowa.

Go Iowa. You know I'm hoping Wisky shits the bed so we can have a family reunion at the UF/UW bowl game.

Throughout the years, many visiting players have stated that Kinnick Stadium is one of the toughest/most intimidating venues in which to play. The crazed Iowa fans are right on top of the player bench area.
