    Eickholt & Kluver On Iowa's Ugly Loss, QB Uncertainty, & Wisconsin Preview

    Tyler and David recap Iowa’s loss at Minnesota, calling it one of the least disciplined Kirk Ferentz games they’ve covered, marked by multiple turnovers (plus a blocked punt), penalties, and failing to capitalize on several drives starting in Minnesota territory. They discuss how quarterback play wasn’t the only issue but remains a major concern, with Hank Brown expected to finish the season as the starter and debate shifting meaningful bowl practices toward younger QBs Jimmy Sullivan and Traydin Bessinger given upcoming portal timing changes. They note positives on defense, frustrations with missed opportunities to Tony Diaz, and uncertainty after running back Kamari’s injury. The episode closes with sponsor reads and a Halloween-week preview of Wisconsin at Kinnick, with Eickholt predicting a low-scoring Badgers win.

    Hawks Get Bullied At Minnesota, How Did It Happen? | WUW 726

    On a quick early-morning episode of the Washed Up Walk-Ons podcast, the hosts recap Iowa’s 13-10 loss to Minnesota on a last-second field goal, calling it one of the worst self-inflicted games they can remember. They praise the defense—highlighting Bryce Hawthorne’s standout season—and note Minnesota’s low totals (209 yards, 2/15 on third down), while emphasizing that Iowa’s ball security and special teams mistakes decided the game: four official turnovers (plus a blocked punt) with several more near-fumbles, along with costly penalties and missed tackles. They discuss missed open throws, the quick quarterback switch between Jeremy Hecklinski and Hank Brown, Minnesota’s run-stopping game plan, and what the loss means for Iowa’s playoff hopes and the importance of responding against Wisconsin and the remaining schedule.

    Eickholt & Kluver | Hecklinski Is Your Starter

    We recap a college football-filled Iowa bye week, discuss Iowa basketball secret scrimmage intel (including big performances from Dani Carnegie and McKenna Woliczko), and debate the value of “secret” scrimmages and potential joint practices. They break down Minnesota’s difficult remaining schedule and how pivotal the Iowa game is for bowl hopes, plus FanDuel win-total odds. The episode centers on a memorable Kirk Ferentz press conference where he effectively confirmed Jeremy Hecklinski as the starting quarterback, prompting discussion of practice equity, Tim Lester’s influence, and how quickly Iowa could pivot back to Hank Brown if needed. They power-rank Iowa’s remaining opponents, touch on portal/NIL realities, note Mike Locksley’s firing at Maryland, and close with health updates and KF’s dove-hunting analogy about overthinking.
