No matter how banged up Nebraska was, Iowa was no match for the Huskers.
It's Heroes Game Day, but this game isn't about heroes (though it's worth it to read the stories of the people being honored). In fact, it's about the opposite. Today's game is about Nebraska...

BHGP discusses this week's Iowa Hawkeyes - Nebraska Cornhuskers game with Erin Sorensen of Husker Locker.
Iowa Hawkeyes halfback MiKa'il McCall has been suspended for this week's game against the Nebraska Cornhuskers for a violation of team rules. We think we know why.
After running back Marcus Coker, quarterback James Vandenberg, and receiver Marvin McNutt, there isn't much with Iowa's offense. Combine that with a mediocre defense, and you have an opponent that Nebraska should beat...barring the unexpected.
Iowa may have a relatively easier schedule, but with only nine returning starters, the Hawkeyes have too many question marks to be a serious contender in the Big Ten's West division. Start with a quarterback who only threw 8 passes last season, and then add in an underachieving defense that lost five players to the NFL. 2011 is a rebuilding year for the Iowa Hawkeyes.
