Summary

Iowa and Iowa State are near the bottom of college football roster spending — and Murph & Andy break down what that means for the Hawkeyes, Cyclones, and the future of college football. Keith Murphy and Andy Fales dive into The Athletic’s new Power Four roster-spending estimates, including Iowa at $17–21 million and Iowa State at $13–17 million. They discuss how NIL and roster payroll are changing college football, whether money now predicts College Football Playoff success, and the debate over whether Iowa, Iowa State, and UNI should receive more state funding. Plus, Iowa vs. UNI, Iowa State vs. Bowling Green, Kirk Ferentz remembering the 2009 UNI scare, Arch Manning’s apology after discussing an AI video involving Holly Rowe, the Kansas City Chiefs and Kenneth Walker, the return of the Kinnick documentary, Sydney Sweeney and sports prediction ads, Mr. Movie, and MORE!
