Dogcrap. Will it make an appearance after the game?

The D cannot be relied on to WIN a game as in produce a stop when it counts. But they aren't the reason Iowa is plumbing the depths this season. Additionally, the D is responsible perhaps for as many as 25% of the points Iowa has put up!

Perhaps because Iowa scoring defense is ranked 29 for one.

Headlines tomorrow: Purdue denies Ferentz a good cry. Rest of Iowa weeps.

Not a TO. Have we ever got a first down after one?

With that one play, Vandenberg has shaken off all his demons.

I would take the knee honestly.

Quite rightly so. Matter of fact, he should pat himself on the back as well. For this achievement.

One thing I gotta say about this team. They are playing with heart today...most others (such as Minny, MSU etc) would've given up many games ago.

Thanks to the Iowa O, this thread has only 19 pages at the half. i think KF has it out for Jon.

You take that back. The turnover was forced. Credit for 4 of 7 points on the board goes to D. 1-point credit for Vandy, 1 for Bullock, and 1 for PAT.

Really hope for your sake that you are a slim blonde chick with a cute face and DDs...'coz you are gonna need those assets big-time. :-)

To all of those who seem to think my OP was laudatory towards our set-in-stone starting QB: The second option in the OP is meant to be a stand-in for "QB horrible, rest of team respectable". Also the last sentence (about JVB at Alabama) was intended to get a rise, which I suppose it did but not...

There's an interesting GD connection (that I've seen pointed out before) besides Iowa in that list. The SMU QB (owner of one of the bottom ten QB-ratings) is the same guy who was GD's QB at Texas in the season that got him fired.

I actually don't think a QB is horrible just because his ratings are terrible. There's always the possibility of a Dan Marino type prospect stuck at a horrible program. So I took a closer (but very quick and dirty) look at the 10-teams with worst QB "ratings" to see if there's pattern or outlier...

Spider's OP is dead on. I have been and largely continue to be a KF supporter because I happen to agree with his overall approach (words like trench play, execution, non-gimmicky, developmental, percentages apply) -- but he does need to get a tad (not too much) humble. There is something in what...

The O put up a massive 17-points and also gift wrapped 7 for the opponent for a net of 10 (imo). I hold the D responsible for giving up 21-points. Painful number of rushing yards but any D that gives up only 21-points to NW is above average. The D wasn't great but played well enough for any...

Barta:KF == KF:Vandy

The D is ok (as in above average in BiG). The O on the other hand is orgasmically challenged...fitful jerky limp...unable to finish anything they start...impotent... Limpest noodle in the fbs -- that should be our Offense's byline.

3. Keenan showed some fight 2. Cotton showed heart 1. KF admitted that "he thought about it" which really means it's been processing in his multi-core parallel bioprocessor for 6-weeks...the punch-card is about to pop out any minute now.
