A rough week for the men's hoops team isn't the end of the world. The women's team keeps finding ways to win. And the football All-American teams are out with Iowa being well-represented.

The Big Ten Championship may have ended as expected but there were plenty of surprises along the way to discuss. Now its time to turn toward Citrus Bowl prep and discuss coaching hires, players in the portal, and what it all means for the future.

So much to cram into an hour long show. The boys do their best to touch on all of it while paying fair attention to football as the regular season is now in the past and Michigan awaits in the Big Ten Championship Game.

Pre-empted by Drake Basketball on the Radio, the boys put together a technology challenged but packed podcast to discuss Iowa's Big Ten West Championship and all other things in the Hawkeye sports world.

So much happening in so many sports! A packed show with football, basketball, women's basketball, soccer, field hockey, and women's wrestling all part of the discussion.

A show that could have used two hours with the football win over Northwestern and the Wrigley experience, both hoops teams kicking off the season, field hockey into the NCAAs and a Big Ten Championship for the Soccer team.

A bye week for football certainly isn't boring as news on the Iowa Coaching Staff takes center stage. It's time for hoops to crank up. And the other fall sports begin to wrap up with their conference tournaments.

So much to unpack after the frustrating and emotional loss of Floyd Of Rosedale to Minnesota. The boys don't hold back in their opinions of both the crushing inappropriately applied official's call that cost Cooper Dejean Hawkeye immortality AND the coaching situation that has reached critical mass.

The Hawks have moved to 5-1 on the gridiron but the fans feel mired in mediocrity. Is that fair and what will happen at Wisconsin next weekend?

Iowa wins another game with a sputtering offense and stellar special teams & defense. Purdue is ahead.
