When it comes to timeouts or foul trouble, Iowa coach Ben McCollum doesn't have a set strategy. It's all about the moment. iowacollegehoops.com/2025/11/17/m...
McCollum Coaches By Feel When It Comes To Timeouts, Foul Trouble
By JOHN BOHNENKAMP Ben McCollum doesn’t have a set philosophy on how he uses his timeouts, or whether a player sits for the rest of the first half after picking up two fouls. Iowa fans have learned…

Ben McCollum sees the big picture, but the road to building the Iowa men's basketball program already has had some fun moments. Keeping that going is the coach's goal. It's THE MONDAY TIPOFF. iowacollegehoops.com/2025/11/17/t...
THE MONDAY TIPOFF: For McCollum, The ‘Long Game’ Is Just Starting
By JOHN BOHNENKAMP It’s as much what is going on off the court as it is on the court for the Iowa men’s basketball team, and it had to be that way. Three games at home — all wins — have ended the s…

Namaste...
I get it. I want Rodgers to play and for the #Bears to leave his bloody pulp of a carcass on the field.
If Rodgers is really out next Sunday and the Bears are getting Mason Rudolph instead, I have some mixed feelings about it.

Does that game get easier? Probably. But also, I've been wanting the payback ever since he signed with the Steelers, knowing damn well they were coming to Chicago this season.

Reportedly it was DL Coach Kelvin Bell flagged on the sideline for Unsportsmanlike Conduct. I haven't heard much said about it but it sealed the #Hawkeyes loss. TV didn't explain it either. Hard to blame him - his players were getting held on a majority of SC's offensive plays. Pretty egregious imo.

The egregious missed calls on blatantly obvious penalties in both the #NFL and #CFB (think face masks) like the #Hawkeyes game yesterday and the #Bears just now -- first thing that comes to my mind is the betting scandals now going on in other sports. Not sayin' - just sayin'...

The updated #Hawkeyes FBS Stats Rankings: minor changes (a few positive for the offense after losing at USC yesterday) but looks pretty similar to a week ago.

Two weeks to go with Iowa's game vs. Michigan State next Saturday at Kinnick set for 2:30 PM on FS1.

The #Hawkeyes Offense started fast, then bogged down in the 2H, falling at USC 26-21. Gronowski did score another rush TD (has at least 1 in every game) + had a pass TD & caught a TD pass (pretty amazing). Sparty is next in IC.

Just stay parked over here with the rest of the sane people - no need to wallow in the X shit-hole.
I usuallly Twitter it for live sports, but had to roll back here. Too much Iowa media bashing of the officiating for my taste over there.

FINAL: FADE TO BLACK
USC 26 - Iowa 21

Deflating loss for the #Hawkeyes. Offense went dormant in the 2H (108 YDs TO & 0 Pts) and you're not going to win many #B1G road games like that. Defense held SC 14 pts & 143 YDs below its ave. UI's 4 losses are by a combined 15 pts - record dips to 6-4, 4-3.
November 15, 2025 at 11:48 PM
The #Hawkeyes had +3:50 TOP at the Half - now it's SC +2:24 - so a big swing in the 3Q.
Can’t imagine time of possession in the 3Q was pretty.

3Q End: Iowa 21 - USC 19

#Hawkeyes are clinging to a lead but SC's offense has been cookin' - and a fluke deflection (after a missed blatant USC face mask penalty) has the Trojans deep in UI territory and driving. No turnovers yet for Iowa's D.

The Stats...
November 15, 2025 at 11:00 PM
2Q End: Iowa 21 - USC 10

The #Hawkeyes have been about all you ask for & more in the 1H. Defense has mostly held SC's potent offense in check. And UI's offense is pulling out all the stops. Gronowski has a rush TD (at least 1 in every game this season) + a receiving TD (thrown by RVZ)!

The stats.

1Q End: Iowa 7 - USC 0

Solid 1st for the #Hawkeyes who came out throwing on their first drive - now on the verge of another TD with 1D on the 2 as we move to the 2nd. UI's D has been rock-solid so far, too.

Oh, boy - the officials for tonight's WBB #Hawkeyes - Drake Game are likely to make your hair stand on end: Gina Cross, Natasha Camy, Felicia Grinter.

I remind you of this expose on WBB Officiating - and it appears they've still done nothing about it!
