So far this week in key match ups of ranked college teams if you didn't score 4 touchdowns you didn't win the game and it wasn't the case that they had bad defenses. Offense today is much more diverse with many more options, it puts a lot more pressure on the defense. Iowa's defense should have...

If we had Michigans Offense with our defense banged up as it is would we have lost to Northwestern and Ohio State?

No spread offense this week. Oregon didn't score last week

Great Post, Kirk has a tremendous program. The player development is the greatest in the country. I don't expect KF to be perfect but the statistics just stand out especially this year. I don't want any coach fired but I believe it wood be good for KF at the end of the season address the...

Iowa has a basic conservative ballcontrol offense that would prefer to run twice as much as they pass and take their time in doing it. It doesn't surprise me they are not very good at executing a 2 minute offense as it is completely opposite what they do the whole game. In regular game...

Iowa's defensive coaches should look at the game field to see what works against a great pass offense Brady picked the Colts apart for 3/4 of the game and when the Colts had to get stops they Blitzzed and jammed the receivers at the line of scrimmage. Completely turned the game around.

We like to use 5 receivers so that we have more options and it makes it easier for their quarterback to run. No one is asking Iowa to run a spread offense but they need to mix it up. If you look at the Iowa offensive stats you have one of the most efficient quarterbacks in the country, a running...

We do have the best front four in college football, because of all of the injuries to our linebackers their play isn't near as good as we would have hoped to last year. Statistically speaking when you hold the number 8 team in the country to 1/2 of their average offensive output and cause two...

Over the last decade your defense is consistently ranked in the top 20% and the offense ranked in the bottom 50%. Are you recruiting a lot better athletes for the defensive unit? If not how do you explain the large disparity in performance and is it a factor in evaluating coaches job performance?

Despite the defense giving up late game drives they simply aren't the main reason the Hawks lost the last two games. The defense held Ohio State to their second lowest offensive point out put of the year and 1/2 their average of 40 points per game, only Wisconsin which won their game held Ohio...

You make my point, it is little more difficult how much more is hard to quantify. By declining the penalty it might alter Tressel's decision to kick a field goal and instead and go for it. Why subject yourself to that risk. What if he changes his mind because we decline and goes for it and gets...

This may may sound to be a bit petty but I believe it goes to the heart of the coaches game day decision making IQ. Late in the first half Ohio State had a 4th and goal at the one yard line. I was somewhat surprised that Tressel decided to kick a field goal as I put their odds at about 80% they...

Besides having a limited number of offensive formations you can read with a high frequency of accuracy what type of play being called ( run or pass) base on the personel they have on the field. You would have to be at the game to pick this up, but if I can see it I am sure their defensive...
