-- We'll update through 10:30 a.m. when the fun moves over to chat (click here for that).
-- These teams have combined to squeeze 35 turnovers out of opponents this season.
-- Drove by the Sheraton this morning. Four buses of Hawkeyes in the lot. I think that's one more than usual.
-- No one is on the field yet. It's just firing up down on the field.
-- Iowa QBs were out throwing in their UnderArmour's and shorts. QB Ricky Stanzi looked just fine. It's a fantastic day for football. The wind is tough to tell here. Camp Randall is pretty well enclosed. The stadium flags are zipping, but the upright streamers are just sort of waving.
-- Sandeman, Sash, Hyde and Keenan Davis are returning punts in pregame.
-- DJK is the personal pass catcher for Stanzi today. DJK has 5,000 Facebook followers. He's more popular than the kid who played "Bud" on "Married with Children."
-- TE Tony Moeaki is in the house.
-- WR Trey Stross is on the field.
-- LB Pat Angerer and DE Adrian Clayborn are warming up.
-- Michigan ran to Iowa's right (DE Broderick Binns and DT Christian Ballard and WLB Jeremiha Hunter) a lot last week. Let's see if Wisconsin goes that route.
-- Wisconsin just did this big circle thingie in their end zone. DE O'Brien Schofield got in the middle and did a bunch of gyratin'.
-- Getting ready for Iowa team. I'll note any changes, but I don't expect any. Maybe Riley Reiff starts instead of Julian Vandervelde.
-- Wisconsin OT Josh Oglesby and WR Nick Toon are healthy and on the field.
-- Cedar Rapids' Zach Johnson is in the house. He brought his entourage of one (I think his bro). Zach is a massive Hawkeyes fan.
-- Willie Lowe was in Spievey's spot, but he was in the wrong place. Amari Speivey is on the field and fine.
-- From Iowa radio: The flu will not be an issue today.
-- Iowa is off the field and into the lockerroom. There are 26 minutes until kick off. Let's go to chat.
