12/20/2012: Talkin’ Hawks podcast (2012 Iowa season recap)

All season long, we have conducted a series of weekly podcasts called “Talkin’ Hawks,” previewing each upcoming game for the Iowa Hawkeyes throughout the 2012 season.

In previous years, the final podcast of the season would be a look-ahead to whatever bowl game Iowa was about to be playing in. With the Hawkeyes having a 4-8 season however, there’s no bowl game to specifically discuss this year.

In this two-hour edition, former Iowa defensive back Chris Rowell (2005-09) joins me — as he has all year long — to recap the Hawkeyes’ 2012 season, look ahead at their future position-by-position and share his thoughts on every 2012-13 bowl game that is either a BCS bowl or features a Big Ten or top 25 team (there are 16 of them that are discussed).

I’d also like to take this opportunity to thank two groups of people. First, I want to thank all 12 of the guests I had on the podcast throughout the season:

Steve Nitz (DeKalb Daily Chronicle), Travis Hines (Ames Tribune), Jesse Gavin (1650 “The Fan” in Cedar Falls), Nate Schneider (Mt. Pleasant Morning Sun), Matt Humbert (Fringe Bowl Team Blog), Joe Rexrode (Detroit Free Press), Ben Jones (StateCollege.com), Kevin Trahan (Inside Northwestern), Dustin Dopirak (Bloomington Herald-Times), Mike Carmin (Lafayette Journal and Courier), Mark Snyder (Detroit Free Press) and Brandon Vogel (Hail Varsity)

In the three years I’ve done this podcast, this was the first year that I successfully had guests for each edition that was posted during the week of an Iowa football game.
