Hawkeye Report Podcast


Oct 31, 2024

A lot of ground to cover this week on the podcast and much of it involves the quarterback position for the Iowa Football team. First, we take one final look back at the Northwestern game and what we saw there and the play of Brendan Sullivan. 

Then we look at everything that has happened since the game on Saturday that includes a new depth chart that includes Sullivan as the starter and doesn't include Cade McNamara. We discuss McNamara suffering a concussion and how he will miss this week and will almost certainly be questionable for next week at UCLA as he goes through the protocols. Then there is a potential injury to Marco Lainez, who was listed as the starter, which would elevate Jackson Stratton as the Iowa backup quarterback this week. Who would be Iowa's third stringer this weekend? We have that news on the pod. 

Then we preview the game against Wisconsin. What have we seen from the Badgers? Are they a decent team who has beaten bad teams and struggled when they step up in class? What have we seen this year from their backup quarterback and their ground game? What about their defense?

We move on to Tom's Fearless Forecast for Iowa men's basketball. What will the record be for the Hawkeyes? Will that make the NCAA Tournament? Then we wrap up picking some football games this week, incuding the Wisconsin/Iowa prediction.
