While it wasn't the opening game performance from the offense that we hoped for, it was the opening game performance that we got, which still resulted in a 34-7 week 1 win for your Iowa Hawkeyes! The Hawkeye 4DT guys come to you this week trying not to overreact to a, well, bad QB performance in week 1 that conjured up some of the ghosts of recent lackluster QB performances for your beloved Hawkeyes. Notwithstanding Iowa's inability to get anything going in the passing game, there were certainly some bright spots to discuss - including 300+ yards on the ground and a defense that was pretty stingy after the Great Danes were able to (briefly) take the lead on Saturday. Tune in this week to hear all of Zach's and Brian's reactions to week 1 and their preview of HATE WEEK, as the Hawkeyes travel to Jack Trice to take on the Cyclones in front of a Big Noon Kickoff crowd this coming Saturday.

Hawkeye 4DT is weekly Iowa Hawkeyes matchup and team analysis. Brian & Zach break down opponent tendencies, scheme, personnel usage, and keys to the game—nothing else.
