After taking several weeks off Brian and Zach are back to look at the Top 5 storylines from Iowa's 2018 football season and hand out some post-season awards (and check back on how we did with our pre-season awards). With MSU on the horizon (Bulldogs, not Spartans), we take one final opportunity for the 2018 season to provide our prediction for a game that experts believe will be a quite low scoring game.

The 2018 Redemption Tour did not go as expected with your Iowa Hawkeyes going 0-4 against opponents to whom they lost in 2017. For a third straight week, the Hawkeye4DT podcast struggles with a disappointing loss - this one more perplexing than the prior two. Brian and Zach discuss the 2018 Iowa identity, the baffling usage of Noah Fant and essentially skip right over the positivity that second down usually brings in favor of an extended look at where things went wrong against Northwestern.

When you are Iowa and you put up 36 points and zero (meaningful) turnovers, you expect to win a football game. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case this week. Brian and Zach look back at another disappointing loss and try to find ways to keep the faith this week. While the B1G West is off the table, a chance to steady the ship and get some late-season momentum is still out there in 2018.

In this week’s episode of the Hawkeye 4DT Podcast, Zach and Brian take a deep dive into Iowa’s disappointing loss to the Nittany Lions. In addition to breaking down the reasons for the loss, the guys also spend some time looking at what this game means for the rest of 2018 (and beyond).  On the more positive side, Zach and Brian also examine the goals that are still achievable for this Hawkeye team and how they can get there. The formula is simple - just gotta keep winning!!

After a dominating performance against Maryland, the likes of which we have not seen in the Ferentz era, all eyes are focused on this week’s trip to Happy Valley where the Hawkeyes, and the Hawkeye4DT Podcast, have revenge on their mind.  Brian and Zach first take a look back over the first seven games and identify their mid-season offensive and defensive MVPs.   Brian and Zach also break down just how dominating the Hawkeyes’ performance against Maryland were before switching gears and analyzing the upcoming tilt on the road against the Nittany Lions.  The PSU game kicks off a critical three-game stretch as Iowa looks to continue and build on what has the makings of a special season in Iowa City if the Hawks can manage to take out the next three opponents, all of whom bested your Iowa Hawkeyes in 2017.  Spoiler alert – the Hawkeye4DT Podcast likes the Hawks’ chances this week!!

Iowa football is...fun? A debate of who is the best tight end of the Ferentz era? This week's episode definitely reflects our good mood after back-to-back 40+ point games with over 400 yards of offense coupled with a defense that ranks in the top 10 in the country. We also take a look at the upcoming Maryland match-up this week and peek ahead to an important game at PSU next week. Buckle up, Hawk fans, if the offense continues to be this productive and dynamic, this could be a fun year!

On the road again! Brian and Zach look at the successful B1G road opener against the Gophers and look ahead to the Hawks' second consecutive road game  - this time against basketball powerhouse, the Indiana Hoosiers. A lot to like from the Minnesota game, but will the newfound offensive juggernaut continue on? Or will injuries finally catch up with the defense? Download to find out what 4DT thinks about those things and more!

After taking a week to cope with the heartbreaking loss to the Badgers, Brian and Zach return this week to take a more measured review of the Wisconsin game and look ahead to this week's game again the Gophers. Good news, Hawkeye fans, despite the disappointment, a good season is still very possible - we expect to know more after Saturday afternoon in Minneapolis.

While we don't typically want to declare a game "must win" in September, this week's tilt against the Wisconsin Badgers is a "must win" for your Iowa Hawkeyes. Brian and Zach not only discuss the importance of the game this week but also look back at the UNI game, including to examine the offensive outburst and whether that effort is what we should expect to see going forward or if it was an FCS opponent mirage. You will not want to miss this Hawkeye4DT episode as we prepare for what we expect to be the de facto B1G West Championship Game.

After a fourth straight Cy-Hawk victory and a second straight home game against the Clones that saw your Hawkeyes give up a mere field goal, Brian and Zach are more than happy to heap praise on the defensive side of the ball; the offense is going to have to pick it up against FCS Northern Iowa this week to get itself back into the “second down” discussion.  The disappointing beginning to the season has the offense firmly in “third down” territory currently. And with the Hawkeyes heading into their final non-conference game, Brian and Zach can’t help but look ahead to the first B1G game of the year with Wisconsin looming. The good news for Hawk fans is that the tilt with the Badgers will be under the lights at Kinnick Stadium – maybe just in time for some Kinnick magic.

Your 2018 Hawks are 1-0 with the Iowa State Cyclones the only thing standing between them and a 2-0 start. This week, Brian and Zach look back at Iowa's 33-7 win over the NIU Huskies and examine what went well, including good efforts from both the offensive and defensive lines, what didn't go as well (we are looking at you, passing game), and where they believe games may be won and lost this season. Brian and Zach also take a look at the Cyclones, who will be playing their first game of the 2018 season due to some inclement weather in Ames - guess the coaching staff will have to dust off some 2017 tape to see a pretty good Iowa State team that took Iowa to overtime and beat Oklahoma and TCU. Always a tough game for #hateweek.

This week, Brian and Zach take a look at the defensive side of the ball and break down each of the position groups. The biggest surprise from this episode? Brian and Zach have a somewhat spirited discussion about future All-American A.J. Epenesa and what his expected impact should be in 2018. While both expect there will be some ups and downs this year, there is agreement that this defense has talent and could provide some excitement this season.

The Hawkeye 4DT podcast returns with a vengeance for another season of Hawkeye football! After serving our self-imposed offseason suspensions for violation of podcasting rules (i.e., overpromising and under-delivering), Brian and Zach have returned with their first podcast of the season breaking down the offensive side of the ball and clearing out many of the grab bag topics that have piled up over the offseason. Tune in to hear which offensive unit is in the best shape for 2018, which unit gives us the most cause for concern, and who we expect to be the breakout offensive stars this season.
