Hawkeyes vs Northwestern 10/26/13

Last weeks recap: It looked possible for 3 quarters.  Hoping one of these days they play a full game.

The Hawkeyes are coming back home for a very important run.  They are going to need to pull off a couple of big games to reach the 8 win mark.  The first one comes today.  We all know that Northwestern has been a pain in the butt the last few years.  It's not going to happen this year.  Iowa comes in to this game as a 4 point favorite and they are going to cover that.

The run game and 3 TE offense returns to Iowa City.  Weisman will run for 125 yards.  The other RB's, lead by Bullock and LeShun Daniels, will add over 100 of their own to get Iowa over the 250 yards rushing mark. They will control the clock in a solid fashion.

The 3 TE set is going to make a somewhat significant appearance as well.  Rudock will have completions to 4 different TE's and 10 receptions overall.  Rudock will have a steady amount of passing throughout the game and will accumulate over 200 yards passing and a couple TD's.

The defense will have a solid effort, limiting the effectiveness of Kain Colter.  It will seem like a return to the bend but don't break defense of years passed.  Iowa will force NW into a couple of mistakes that help keep the momentum going Iowa's direction.

On a day that will turn out a little warmer than predicted, Iowa will pull out the win 27-16.

Don't forget to stop by the ANF booth.  I'm bringing my son tomorrow and he's excited to try and get some autographs.
