We talk about our Spotify wrapped, how much it would take to buy us out of the WUW, and other dumb stuff. Then we mesh the discussion into Rhule taking over at Nebraska, and Fickell taking over at Wisconsin, and the the outlook for the West with ...
Nebraska plays spoiler and leaves Hawkeye Nation licking our wounds. With everything on the line, the Hawks were down starters, turned the ball over, played sloppy, and got behind by too many points to put together the kind of day that everyone in Black and Gold was hoping for. We discuss why our Defense struggled to deal with Trey Palmer in the passing game, and the options that the Hawkeye D had to try and survive Cooper Dejean's first quarter knock out hit. We talk about the hurt and disappoi...
Friend of the show and now 4 time guest Jeremiah Sirles joins us to preview the Nebraska v Iowa Thanksgiving day matchup.

After retiring from playing, he's ventured into the media side of the game, similar to ourselves, and has worked within the Husker Radio network the past several years as a sideline reporter and cohost of som...
The Hawkeyes win streak continues as they found a way to battle and win in single digit temperatures in Minneapolis over the weekend. The trophy, Floyd of Rosedale stays in Iowa City, where it has resided for 8 straight years. The question.. how does a team give up 270 rushing yards to a single running back and win the game? How do 2 teams in frigid weather manage ZERO penalties, something that hasn't been done since 1986. How does this Defense continue to find ways of bending, and bending, and ...
One heck of an episode that crosses back and forth between a whole host of topics. We start the episode with bowl projections discussion and some comedic banter.

The Hawks found life, and put out their best offensive performance of the year in a 33-13 victory of the Wildcats. How much of this weekend's success was due to progress from the O vs the Northwestern team being bad at football? How much has this Offense truly struggled because of the lack of time to throw the ball? Will this momentum keep building this week vs Purdue? Many new questions to ponder as the Hawks go to 4-4. We recap the weekend bets, and an all new Walkon Top 5, Halloween Candy....

We sat down to record this episode just 30 mins after the news that Wisconsin Head Football coach Paul Chryst was being relieved of his duties. So we start the episode with a brief discussion on that news. We dive into breaking down the Iowa game, talk about how Spencer Petras had his best personal outing to date, how the Defense could have helped themselves out a little more, the difference in performance around the line of scrimmage on Saturday, and how Iowa even in defeat took a step forward ...
This is a very Washed Up Walkons episode.. unfiltered, off subject, entertaining but not safe for work. We do an absolutely abysmal job at actually previewing the football game. But.. if you like to laugh then this could be for you. We touch on topics like how we prepared for Michigan in 2016, what it will take for this years team to pull off a similar upset, and why Kinnick is so special when it comes to big matchups. Most of the episode is about our top 5 breads, making fun of Brady Ross, comi...

The Hawkeyes took care of business in Piscataway on Saturday earning their way to Victory 27-10. While the Defense posted their 4th straight solid performance, highlighted by 2 trips to the endzone off of turnovers, it was the Offense who may have injected some more hope into Hawkeye faithful. We go back through our Wards Winners from week 4, and discuss the lopsided Minnesota vs Michigan St game. We recap the win, our initial thoughts on what we saw improve from the Hawks and what still needs w...

A late night game, turns into an early morning recap. Iowa's Offense and Defense did as expected, controlling the field and blanking the Nevada Wolfpack for a their first shutout of the season. Iowa's Offense looked to be better, in multiple areas, but the question now is was the reason because Iowa actually figured some things out? Or was this a product of playing one of the worst teams in the country? Why did the playbook get bigger? Did Nico and Keagan really make a big difference? Who are th...
