Iowa’s home game against Indiana on Sunday, Feb. 19 is one of three games CBS can choose from. A decision on that game’s tip time and television network will be announced at a later date.

HAWKEYE FOOTBALL: Get ON or Get OUT
It's been quiet on this little blog of mine with it being the off-season and all, also due to the fact that I started up a new site earlier in the year - BrewManiacs - with a couple other midwest friends.
The new Iowa Football video was awesome enough to bring me out of semi-hibernation.
Awesome.

National Media Attacks Ferentz, Jon Miller Fights Back
Jon Miller of Hawkeyenation.com just wrote one of the best pieces I have every read in regards to Iowa Football. It came at a place in time where someone had to make a stand and let the national media know that they are out of line. Several Hawkeye fans have gone to Twitter to let the national pundits know that they are wrong, but this article went beyond that. Hopefully guys like Pat Forde and Gregg Doyel read it, but I'm not sure they will. Listening to reason hasn't their strong suit as of late. A big thank you to Jon for writing this. A truly fantastic piece.
