Thinking about fading both Iowa (-40 vs. Tennessee Tech) and Iowa State (-11 vs. UNI) the week before their big game.
Hawkeyes have a lot of new starters and seem kind of slow defensively. TT runs a hurry-up offense that -- while obviously inferior to the product that usually gives them fits -- should cause at least a little bit of trouble. They basically return their whole lineup from 2010, while the Hawkeyes are the most inexperienced team in the Big Ten.
ISU breaking in a new QB, and UNI has 18 starters back while being a consensus Top-5 national 1-AA outfit.
