Iowa HS baseball season ends tonight (only state where HS sports have taken place since pandemic)
It wasn’t exactly smooth sailing with Covid but:
- 94% of teams were unaffected
- 96% finished season
- all infections reportedly mild
- fans were allowed all season

Some ppl are actually fired up that Iowa dare storm the field.
It was 3 vs. 4, Iowa came back from 14 down, and it was the biggest game in that stadium in 36 years!
Storm away!
This might be the greatest time ever to be a fan of football in state of Iowa
Hawkeyes 5-1 and about to be ranked
Cyclones with back to back wins over ranked teams
Wisconsin gets ass kicked
Nebraska 0-6
NEBRAKSA IS 0-6!!!!!
Happy to be DEAD WRONG
Iowa made Boston look pedestrian
Bluder coached circles around Staley
Clark was generational — again
Hawkeyes will play for a national title!!!
By my math Iowa State just made history. From 2 wins to 21 wins. No program in CBB history has more than a 19-game improvement year over year.
From 0-19 in Big 12 games to an NCAA Tourney win. Incredible coaching job by TJ Otz!
In the last calendar year, Iowa has scored 7 pts or fewer SIX(!!!!!!!!!!) times.
It’s the worst offense in the country and perhaps the worst in modern football history.
A major change must be made if fans are to believe in this program any longer. PERIOD.
This was heartwarming to see in Des Moines.
As the curfew hit at 9pm CT, downtown protestors said they wanted the police to kneel with them for a couple minutes and they’d go home.
Police kneeled, protestors dispersed
In 1999 UConn played Iowa in the Sweet 16 and at the time UConn didn’t have a single Final Four appearance.
Since that day 25 years ago:
UConn has 6 national titles
Iowa has never returned to the Sweet 16
This is why a lot of ppl (including myself) were fooled into thinking this was a weak/bad call.
The broadcast only showed 2 replays of it and they were both from the side angle where you couldn’t see how much Edwards was moving and how wide her legs were.

Credit to Fran McCaffery. This team was supposed to SUCK. All they’ve done is beaten:
Texas Tech
Syracuse
Minnesota
Iowa State
And Minnesota was the only game in Iowa City.
TJ does in year 1 what Iowa has been trying to do for a generation.
Devastating weekend to be a Hawkeye hoops fan but as my dad said “at least they took out miserable Wisconsin”
Iowa hadn’t been shut out since 2000 — until this season. And it happened in the only 2 games Iowa played a ranked team.
31-0 at Penn State
26-0 vs. Michigan
I don’t want to hear about a 10-win season. At least ATTEMPT to fix the offense. This isn’t acceptable. It’s pathetic.

who just lost his father. Keith may be the finest man I’ve ever known and he learned most of his greatest traits from his incredible father (who was also his
#1
fan). Please keep Keith’s family & friends in your thoughts and prayers.
Nebraska fans are incredible. Have never had a great bball team. Haven’t even had a bowl qualifying football team in nearly a decade. And they just continue to pack stadiums and arenas. Add in volleyball too. Say what you want about them but they support their teams.
Says a lot about the Iowa football culture that no starters have opted out of the bowl game and several impact players with tons of options have already announced they’re coming back.
Things like that rarely happen in 2023
Jim Harbaugh is an amazing coach:
Back-to-back 11-1 seasons at San Diego
12-1 and Orange Bowl win at Stanford
3 straight NFC title games + SB w/ 49ers
3 straight CFP’s and now natty at Mich
Say what you want about the guy but he wins at every damn level.
The only thing keeping me alive is the season long battle between Iowa’s offense and Charlie Jones.
Iowa 316 total yards, 1 TD
Charlie Jones 286 rec yards, 4 TD
Dan Patrick reports Big Ten had internal vote & by 12-2 margin, league members opted on not having a fall football season. Nebraska & Iowa were only schools that voted to play this fall,
@dpshow
said. Patrick said Big Ten & Pac-12 would cancel fall seasons Tuesday
How are they just now figuring out the court has been jacked up in Portland? It was the same for every other game there too.
This was Baylor/USC last night. Can clearly tell it’s shorter distance on left.
A year ago TCU was 3-5 and fired their head coach of 20+ years who has a statue of himself outside the stadium.
They had finished inside the AP top 10 NINE times but they noticed a significant dropoff so they started over.
They’re now 7-0 and are led by an Iowa native QB.
More from Angel Reese on Caitlin Clark. I just don’t really understand how Clark or anyone on Iowa disrespected LSU or any LSU players specifically.
I think LSU felt disrespected by the media and turned that into fuel against Iowa.
