You can practically smell it the 2016 rose bowl game just hours away and cbs 2 sports anchor someone whos pretty familiar with both of these squads. There might not be anybody who knows both of these two teams better than anthony herron, former hawkeye, current pac 12 analyst. Whats it like to see your former team be back in the rose bowl . Bowl . Its gratifying it really is. As a member of the media and especially etting to work nationally quite a bit, in all different games. You keep the unbiased hat on but as the hawkeyes climbed up the poll during the season d we were in studio at the pac12 network out in san francisco, and id get to read these highlight packages were iowas having htese dramatic wins late in the game and it was hard not to let that smile ring thorugh as i was reading the highlight packages. Were you surprised at all at the historic season that they had . Had . Id be lying to you zach if i said no. I think theres plenty of analysts out there who follow the game of football closely who think that they can predict things. I feel like ii right more often than im wrong. I felt like iowa would have a quality season just looking that they had, hoping they could do something special, but to go 12andoh in the regular season and be just a hair shy ofofhe College Football playoff. I dont know if anyone is being truly honest if they predicted that. Im gonna have you put your analyst hat on whats it gonna take for iowa to beat stanford . Stanfo . Id say a matchup that stickckout to m. Theres a lot of positions upfront, on the outside, at the quarterback position where i feel like its virtually a stalemate between tse two teams. The key matchup im gonna watch is Christian Mccaffery but not Christian Mccaffery the runner Christian Mccaffery the receiver out of the backfield, because iowa does allow their linebackers quite often to be isolated one on one with slot receivers and with running backs. Mccaffery plays both h those positions and thats where stanford utilizes him quite a bit. Iowas had a couple of weeks to prepare for that. I think its gonna be game. On gameday you gonna have any black and gold attire . Attire . I made that the suit that im gonna have on for our pregame and postgame that shows on the pac12 network will be neutral colors for either team but underneathh there will liekly be some going. Iowa fans will love that. Hes anthony herron, former hawkeye, current pac12 analyst.
