No matter what happens the rest of the season, Hawkeye Fans will always have that first quarter against Utah State. At least that is kind of how it felt by the end of Saturday’s 24-14 win with Cade McNamara sitting on the sidelines while Deacon Hill tried to chuck the ball over the mountains. Of course, while it was easy to overreact to Iowa’s lightning fast start, it was just as easy to overreact to some of the struggles during the week 1 contest.  To provide some perspective, Brian and Zach first look around the B1G West to see how Iowa’s 2023 debut stacked up to the rest of West.  The Hawkeye 4DT guys then complete their standard weekly breakdown by diving into a few positive takeaways from Saturday and highlighting a couple of areas of concern as the team heads into “Hate Week” against ISU. Download and listen this week to see whether the guys think Iowa can build some momentum in Ames, or whether the dream of 15-0 crashes down before it even gets off the ground.
