It's Thursday night and we're less than 48 hours away from the kickoff of the Cyhawk football game. There are still so many unanswered questions that it's tough to know what to think about this game. I've been listening, talking, and reading about this game for the past few days and here's what I think could happen.
ISU's gameplan will work like clockwork in the 1st quarter. They will have more momentum due to coming off a win over NoDak St and having home field advantage. They're energy will carry them to score 2 touchdowns in the first half. Iowa's defense will ever-so-slightly shift the momentum towards the Hawkeyes late in the 2nd quarter. Despite showing some energy of the defensive side, the offense will be limited to a field goal. After the 1st half. 14-3, ISU.
In the 2nd half, I think Iowa will set the tone by energetically scoring early. Stanzi will connect with Moeki for their first touchdown of the game. The defense will start getting to Arnaud as the Cyclone Oline starts to crumble under some pressure. Angerer and Edds will have some strong showings and show everyone why the linebacking core is so feared. I also see DJK making some spectacular plays in the 2nd half. (Don't ask why, that's just what my crystal ball is saying)
IA will score a TD again to take the lead in the fourth quarter and Jack Trice will go quiet real quick. The cyclones will try to march down the field again using their athletic WRs, but they will only be able to muster an attempt at a field goal...that will be blocked. The hawkeyes will then proceed to run out the clock, march down the field themselves, and score a field goal towards the end of regulation.
Final score.....20-14 Iowa. Go Hawkeyes! Take it to the bank!
