The Chuck Long Podcast

This week on the Chuck Long Podcast, we are talking a whole lot of Iowa football, along with the latest news in the Big Ten. 

We open the show reviewing the Hawkeyes one-sided victory over Wisconsin. Long discusses just how poorly the Badgers performed and how stunning that was to him given how the program was so strong for so long under recent coaches. 

Also, we talk about the strong performance of the Iowa offense and defense. We go in-depth on what Long saw from Iowa quarterback Mark Gronowski. How did he perform coming off his knee injury? Did he look good throwing the football? What about running and did they limit that in the game plan? 

We discusses the key to the game, which was the Iowa ground game and how the Hawkeyes won the game up front and on the other side the Hawkeye defensive line intercepting a pair of passes and controlling the line of scrimmage. 

Then we move on to this week and the stunning firing of Penn State head coach James Franklin. How does Long think that will impact the Nittany Lions this week? Will they play for the new coach or have they basically checked out on this season? 

Finally, we pick several games involving Big Ten teams this weekend.
