Has JP said when single game tickets go on sale? Seems weird they haven’t opened them up yet. I wonder what the strategy is there.
I think he tries to sell as many season ticket packages as possible.

I wonder if they try to hit a certain number of season tickets every year before selling single game tickets or if they just go by a given date like 3 weeks before the season starts to release them. Wonder when they released them in seasons past?

Not exactly sure.
IA is very capable of winning double digit games this year. They just need him to be a threat.
Talked to a good buddy of one of the players parents last night. I know it’s third hand, but he mentioned the player said Labia should be started not Petra’s. Thought that last year also. But said you know, and shrugged his shoulders. (Meaning it’s who Kirk likes better).

He wasn’t a threat last year and they still won 10 games. Iowas defense and special teams was so elite last year that their offense didn’t matter.

Iowa’s best win ended up being @ Iowa State and we were just an average team last year.

Yeah I do think Iowa probably has a little tougher schedule this year and have to replace some pieces but could still see them somewhat close to last year.
I wouldn't be shocked to see them undefeated @tOSU for a big noon kickoff or GameDay.

It’s certainly possible. That Michigan game would be huge. All I know is for that game I’m hammering the under. That one’s got 10-6 written all over it.

It'll be a night Kinnick game. I'll take the Hawks getting title game revenge.

When it comes to twitter, I see idiots from both fan bases far more than I care to. It's Twitter's model.
Twitter brings out the worst of the fanbases because it’s easily accessible to find compared to message boards and one bad post spreads like wildfire.

I'd be pleasantly suprised if Iowa wins 10 games this year. Schedule this year is more than a little tougher imo. Not only was the quarterback play not good but across the board offensively. It's going to be tough for defense and special teams to replicate positions they put the offense in last year. The defense will no doubt be solid again though but will they get all the turnovers on the other teams doorstep no less? Special teams replacing Jones and Shudak is a big mystery too but going to be critical for the way we play. I think 7 wins is more likely than 10 but I'll settle on 8-4

I like how Iowa's schedule is setup though:
ISU is sandwiched by SDSU and Nevada.
Michigan is sandwiched by @Rutgers and @Illinois.
@tOSU is sandwiched by a bye and NW.

And Sconnie comes to Kinnick.

Layout wise that's as best as you could hope for with the opponents, IMO.

I don't get it? Those are 12 tough games any way you lay them out.
