Murph & Andy: Hawkeye Hope and Basketball Arrives

Iowa football is ranked No. 19 in the first College Football Playoff rankings, and the Hawkeyes still have a path to the 12-team playoff. Keith Murphy and Andy Fales break down what needs to happen for Iowa to make a run, the teams standing in the way, and why the initial rankings have people questioning the committee.

The guys also discuss Kirk Ferentz's comments about ESPN and the SEC, the debate over how the playoff committee evaluates teams, and whether the rankings are being influenced by television interests.

College basketball is officially here, too. Iowa State opened its season with a loss to Memphis, raising early questions about the Cyclones' defense and new-look roster. Iowa got a win over Lipscomb, with freshman Jaidyn Coon making an impression. The guys also look around the early-season schedules for Iowa and Iowa State.

Plus, an encouraging injury update from former Iowa linebacker Jack Campbell, a movie discussion with Mr. Movie Mike Woody, Throwdowns, and MORE!
