Comparing the Alumni: IOWA vs. OSU

Posted by Mikehawk on September 29th, 2006

I was doing some thinking the other night- why do we get so damn hyped up about a football game? In the grand scheme of things, it doesn’t mean much, right?
Wrong. I was doing coke and now that I’m down from that little buzz, I decided to play a game called “Compare the Alumni.”In this […]

Know Thy Enemy: Enter The Buckeyes

Posted by ZoundBrigade on September 29th, 2006

When Hawkeye fans looked at the schedule for this season and saw THE Ohio State Buckeyes (TOSU) in week 5, we all were hoping for the same thing. Please God, just let both teams win their first four games. That way we will have the mother of all battles, in primetime, on ABC, […]

Bastardization: Ohio State

Posted by Σ on September 28th, 2006

Continuing my hatred for not only the state of Ohio but also Ohio State, I have begun bastardizing the Buckeyes. A lot of people who know me beyond ‘Sigma’ think I am so pro-Hawkeye that I am anti-anything (and frankly, everything) that opposes them… this is true, and also a real life example of being […]

A Quickie

Posted by ZoundBrigade on September 27th, 2006

I saw this and just had to pass it along.  Over on the ESPN college football home on the ESPN Motion Player (far right at the top) is a clip titled “Buckeyes Ready To Be Tested By Iowa”.  Check out the jab Kirk takes at ISU after considering being an “unimpressive 4-0″.  How can you not love […]

GOLD RUSH

Posted by ZoundBrigade on September 26th, 2006

Hawkeye fans lucky enough to get tickets to this Saturday’s game against tOSU, this is a friendly reminder to WEAR GOLD!!  Historically Iowa does blackouts, but since this game is at night a blackout wouldn’t work.  We want the stadium to look full and lively people.  So do whatever you have to do to get some gold apparel Hawk fans.  […]

@Clark: Fool Deserving of Her Title Would Not Say Things Like This

Yeah, that’s the result of me pounding on my keyboard after reading this Nancy Clark article* (Des Moines Register) entitled “Clark: Team deserving of its ranking would pulverize Illinois”. Good thing this isn’t a podcast or you would have heard a long string of profanities as well.
Seriously, I haven’t been this […]

Please donate to the Nancy Clark food fund

Posted by Mikehawk on September 26th, 2006

Hawkize readers,
I come to you today asking for your help. You’ve all been great Hawkeye fans for the past year of our existence, but now its time to back it up with some money.
You see, there is a poor old lady in Des Moines named Nancy Clark. Many of you may be familiar with this […]

Too Cool Not to Post

Warning, the following clip should not be viewed by young children, the elderly, or whinny Cyclone bitches. Rashawn Parker, meet the tank that is Marshal Yanda. Thanks to Colestal for the link.

Your Other Favorite Team This Week: Texas Longhorns

Posted by ZoundBrigade on September 22nd, 2006

You can be a Hawkeye fan and legitimately be a fan of the defending national champions this week.  Pretty fucking sweet eh?  Although we at Hawkize typically frown on all Big 12 teams and wish them only the worst, this week it’s the lesser of two evils and all we can say is:  HOOK’EM HORNS!  […]

Remarkable Women

Posted by Colestal on September 22nd, 2006

This year, the University of Iowa is starting a marketing campaign themed with the slogan “Be Remarkable.”  The campaign includes print, television, and radio media with statistics and data to prove how much we rock.  It’s a great idea.
Since Hawkize generally supports anything the university does, we have decided to launch a series of our […]

For those of you who are interested, drop a comment with your email address. I’ll be sure to send you an order-form. I […]

Juiced: Illinois Frosh QB Busted for ‘Roid Abuse

Posted by Colestal on September 20th, 2006

Champaign, IL — Illinois freshman quarterback Isiah “Juice” Williams has been suspended indefinitely after the Hawkize whistleblowers team pointed out his obvious abuse of performance enhancing drugs.  Williams, the most recent of several high profile athletes to be consumed by the doping scandal, was listed as a potential starter for this weekend’s contest versus the […]

The words of the great Vince Lombardi.  But the above quote from the hall of fame coach no doubt meant a lot more to Iowa MLB Mike Klinkenborg than anyone else last Saturday.  I’m not a huge quote guy, but Lombardi has a few that I really remember.  After hearing about Mike’s story and watching play in that […]

Hawkeyes Win, Cyclones Resort to Typical Poor Boying

Posted by ZoundBrigade on September 17th, 2006

Saturday afternoon was a great day to be a Hawkeye.  The Hawkeyes came out and played less than sound in the first half, going into halftime losing 10-14.  But in the second half the Hawkeyes responded to the challenge and the Cyclones had nothing to counter with.  The defense clamped down, allowing only a field goal and […]

The entire Hawize crew wants to give big ups to Hawkeye safety Devan Moylan.  Devan has been a long time friend of Colestal and I have gotten to know him a bit in my time here at Iowa as well.  His story exemplifies what the Hawkeye football team is all about.  A three year wallk on, before Saturday […]
