The Iowa football team had one of the best defenses in the country last season. In the Big Ten title game, they made life very difficult on the eventual national champion Michigan Wolverines, holding them to just 26 points. However, the Hawkeyes weren't able to muster up any points. Unfortunately for Iowa, that was a common occurrence last year. The defense played good enough to win, but the offense didn't hold up their end of the bargain.

A primary storyline at 2024 Big Ten media days has been the conference’s West Coast newcomers, highlighted by the Oregon Ducks.
The Ducks are expected to contend to win the conference in 2024. They enter the season ranked No. 3 in the nation in ESPN’s SP+ and are the popular No. 2 pick in the Big Ten behind only Ohio State. The consensus is the Ducks are well-equipped to avoid any growing pains upon joining the now-18-program conference.

The casual baseball eye might not detect it, but the Los Angeles Dodgers have had a clown car full of players hit the injured list this season. At 61-42, Los Angeles leads the NL West despite nearly all their MLB starting rotation hitting the shelf at one point this season. However, on Wednesday, the Dodgers welcomed back ace Tyler Glasnow after a short IL stint, with the lengthy righty (who looks just like Cillian Murphy from Peaky Blinders) throwing five innings of one-run ball.

Hawkeyes at the 2024 Olympics Preview

INDIANAPOLIS — Addison Ostrenga’s role changed drastically by the week for the University of Iowa football team last fall. The Hawkeyes expected to have two standout tight ends to spearhead their receiving corps, but injuries to Erick All and Luke Lachey suddenly turned a position of strength into a question mark a month into the season. The attention turned to Ostrenga, a Sun Prairie native and then a sophomore tight end. He was asked to become a key target for an offense that was struggling, and while he couldn’t turn it around entirely, he became a crucial weapon for whom coach Kirk Ferentz sees a bright future.

Five starts and one ACL surgery later, the Iowa Hawkeyes are not about to run away from quarterback Cade McNamara. The Michigan transfer opens fall camp next week as the expected starter in Iowa's new offense, and head coach Kirk Ferentz expects him to prove a lot of naysayers wrong about his ability to serve as a No. 1 quarterback in the Big Ten.
