    Why isn't there a dedicated Beth Mowins thread yet?

    Seems a bit dramatic. I think we can be annoyed with an announcer and still watch football. People can also have opinions, and in a better world, not be called names for it by keyboard tough guys. Monday night football ratings plummeted with her at the helm. Just saying. Obviously there may...

    Eno Benjamin: The One That Got Away

    This thread sucked for the first 4 pages, now I'm really liking it.

    Why isn't there a dedicated Beth Mowins thread yet?

    My two pennies. I have several issues that others have pointed out. NONE of them have to do with her being a woman. A. Her attempt to sound masculine creates a very annoying raspiness. B. She rarely can get a sentence out without being wrong about a player, how to say a players name, or...

    What did the anti-Ferentz Crowd Think of Saturday?

    I don't hate the guy by any means. I'm all Iowa Football. I just think with a loose grip on the reins we could take advantage of the goods of Kirk Ferentz and put behind us some of the not-so-goods. What is life without hope.

    What did the anti-Ferentz Crowd Think of Saturday?

    It seems he looked rushed. Something upper class hawk QB's tend to reflect. There were plays he had all the time in the world but had happy feet and threw the ball into coverage or into the ground. Hopefully he shows some moxy in the coming games. Whats going on in that qb room

    What did the anti-Ferentz Crowd Think of Saturday?

    I'll agree to disagree. I'll save you the heartache and emotional distress. Or maybe not. Name a football team that runs the same play 30 times a game..and if you can do that, explain how thats not overly conservative and not unimaginative. The first half I get. You have to work on your...

    What did the anti-Ferentz Crowd Think of Saturday?

    Maybe I'm just bitter because I still remember the 13 same plays in a row at the Purdue game last year. A game my brother drove down from Minneapolis to watch. A game my dad came for. A game we froze our butts off to watch. To see us lose with one of the worst offensive called games in...

    What did the anti-Ferentz Crowd Think of Saturday?

    #continuingtokickadeadhorse. Not only was the offense BAD in the first half. I rewatched the game last night. That "7 plays in a row just changing the direction," was midway through the 3rd quarter when we had built a comfortable lead. WHY NOT get some passes in to your young...

    What did the anti-Ferentz Crowd Think of Saturday?

    sarcasm. But no, I miss the year where we had Tate and down to our 17th running back. That was college football. Run to open up the pass. Get your skill players the ball. Open it up. That was the best year of the Ferentz era. The year where he couldn't play offense like he wanted.....

    It only took him two decades. Give him some credit.

    What did the anti-Ferentz Crowd Think of Saturday?

    100+ freaking ranked offense in football and you hire your son because you are unwilling to allow changes to your conservative crap. If you can't find any more geriatric patients to listen to you with the offense, just use your loyal son. Any other team with our talent would have put 50 on...

    What did the anti-Ferentz Crowd Think of Saturday?

    We can try to explain the reason for the play calling all we want. When the announcer even says they ran the same play 7 times in a row and just changed the direction, that's what keeps Iowa from being a force in the big ten. End of story. We have inexperience at receivers. Why not throw the...

    This hurts to say, but...

    If you make a list 10 years ago and in the basement in the big 10 ever since, I think it explains our fall from grace.

    Ferentz Team Slow Starts

    Let's not argue about how GREAT Iowa is. Have you ever gone somewhere else? It's called a fly-over state for a reason. I was just in Ireland. Even they commented on that and their 3700 miles away.

    Wadley

    I was curious if any of the information coming out of Titans camp would include Akrum. To no ones surprise, the last month of reporting on several Titans news sources show Akrum at the top of each list of undrafted signees. I think barring any set back he will make the roster as a third option...

    Those guys are almost as cool as the journalist during Mt St. Helens. He was trying to get all the neat pics right up until half the mountain blew off with him on it.

    Iowa's Offense

    We have some short memories of games last year that just don't make sense. I guess you have to have memory issues as a defense mechanism when you like a team for so many years that frustrates you. All you have to do is watch the Purdue game last year to have your doubts about BF. If your line...
