Chit-Chat Wright’s absence raises Iowa questions

Chit-Chat Wright sitting out the entire second half against Lindenwood has Hawkeye fans buzzing, especially after her huge game against Iowa State. Coach Jan Jensen says it’s just a precaution after Wright’s recent injury, but with a showdown against No. 1 UConn looming, her health is suddenly the biggest storyline in Iowa City. The team’s depth is solid, but let’s be real—Wright’s presence could make or break Iowa’s shot on the national stage. Should the coaches play it safe, or is it time to push for a full return? #Sports #IowaHawkeyes #ChitChatWright

Iowa Hawkeyes: Two key players need a bounce-back

The Iowa Hawkeyes are gearing up for Lindenwood, but all eyes are on Ava Heiden and Hannah Stuelke after a tough loss to Iowa State. Heiden struggled with foul trouble and missed crucial free throws, while Stuelke had a rough shooting night despite grabbing 15 rebounds. With Lindenwood coming to Carver, it’s the perfect chance for both to reset and show what they can do. Fans are hoping these two step up—because when they’re on, Iowa looks like a whole different team. What do you think will make the difference this time? #Sports #IowaHawkeyes #CollegeBasketball

Iowa’s rivalry loss hits harder this year

Losing to Iowa State always stings, but this year’s Cy-Hawk defeat feels especially tough for Hawkeye fans. Ben McCollum didn’t sugarcoat it—he’s not interested in moral victories, even if Iowa nearly toppled the No. 4 team in the country. The Hawkeyes had an eight-point halftime lead but couldn’t hold on, and now both the football and women’s basketball teams have also dropped rivalry games. With a few easier matchups ahead, Iowa has a chance to regroup before facing more ranked opponents in January. How do you think the team should respond to this setback? #Sports #Football #IowaHawkeyes

What do you think—are the Hawkeyes on the verge of something big? #Sports #IowaHawkeyes #CollegeBasketball

Iowa Hawkeyes prove they belong in Top 25

That Cy-Hawk game had everyone on the edge of their seats! Even though Iowa fell just short against Iowa State, the Hawkeyes showed they can hang with the best—holding the nation’s top offense to just 42% shooting. Despite the loss, Iowa stays strong at No. 23 in the CBS Top 25, and their gritty defense is giving fans real hope for the season. Bennett Stirtz had a tough night, but you know he’ll bounce back.

Iowa can't sleep on Lindenwood's road streak

Lindenwood might not have the national ranking, but their 7-2 record and three-game road win streak should have Iowa fans paying attention. After a tough loss to Iowa State, the Hawkeyes can't afford to look past a Lions squad that's already knocked off teams like Hawaii, Vermont, and Drake—all away from home. With UConn looming, this is a classic trap game. Lindenwood’s trio of double-digit scorers, especially Brooke Coffey, could give Iowa trouble if they aren’t locked in. Do you think Iowa will bounce back strong, or is this matchup more dangerous than it looks? #Sports #Football #IowaHawkeyes

Iowa State’s sports sweep shakes up the rivalry

For the first time since the CyHawk series began in 2004, Iowa State swept Iowa in all four major sports—football, men’s and women’s basketball, and wrestling. That’s a huge shift in bragging rights, especially since Iowa has pulled off the sweep four times before, most recently in 2016. Some say this year was a perfect storm for ISU, with Iowa’s programs in transition and a few wild breaks in key games. But with young talent returning and home advantage next year, many Hawkeye fans are already looking forward to a comeback. What’s your take on this rivalry’s future? #Sports #IowaState #IowaHawkeyes
