i was as frustrated as anyone during the first half, but after the full 60 I’m not sure that could have gone better.
Quality opponent that made Iowa work for everything. Put them in a lot of tough spots with short fields early that Iowa had to adapt and make plays. Defense held strong until the offense could figure some things out.
There are three things I want out of an opening game. No injuries. I want the team to be pushed to get better. And I want the end of the game to be decided enough to get backup reps.
All things considered that was a great way to start the season.
