Tyler and Collin unpack Iowa's crushing 20-15 loss to Indiana — yet another missed opportunity for the Hawkeyes.

Collin breaks down Iowa's massive Big Ten showdown against the red-hot, 11th-ranked Indiana Hoosiers—undefeated at 4-0 and fresh off a 63-9 demolition of Illinois. Inside what will be a LOUD Kinnick Stadium on Saturday, can the Hawks get it done?

Collin analyzes Iowa’s 38-28 road win over Rutgers—their Big Ten opener and a crucial game to maintain momentum as they face a tough opponent next week at home against Indiana. Collin briefly previews that game toward the end of the episode.

Tyler and Collin discuss the Hawkeyes' commanding 47-7 victory over UMass, a game that displayed some offensive breakthroughs fans have been eager to see. We discuss whether this performance indicates real progress for Gronowski's comfort and the offense moving forward. We also cover the strong defensive showing and the ups and downs of Special Teams so far this season. Additionally, we preview Iowa's next challenge: a quick-turnaround road game against Rutgers on Friday night.

Of course, we can't overlook the historic milestone: Head coach Kirk Ferentz earning his 206th career win at Iowa, surpassing Woody Hayes to become the all-time leader in Big Ten coaching wins—a testament to his legendary tenure and the program's lasting stability.

In this post-CyHawk episode, we explore the aftermath, highlighting the key moments and frustrations of the game. But the main focus? Breaking down what has been a disastrous Iowa offense so far – why does it keep sputtering, what systemic issues are holding it back, and can it improve under Kirk?

Tyler and Collin analyze Iowa football's 2025 season opener against Albany, breaking down the 34-7 win. The main discussion point was the inconsistent passing game in Mark Gronowski’s Hawkeye debut.

We conclude by previewing the big game next week in Ames, where confidence in Iowa winning seems low at this point.
