Good point. I looked at that comment from BF "We have to make the makeable plays" as coach speak for my God Spencer you have a guy running 5 yards from you get him the ball and he walks in for the score against Illinois. Spencer freaked out threw it 2 yards into the ground when a D line guy...

Kirk isn't stupid. I'm sure as he promoted Brian to OC he would have said to himself..if we win all is good. If we lose, it could get ugly. That being said, I don't think Kirk or the majority of Hawk fans ever dreamed the offense would be this bad. I think a few changes have led to a perfect...

Given the play of the O line, Padilla gives us a possibility of yards with his feet against NW. I have given up on Petras. That pass that was picked off for 6 by Ohio St. was mind boggling. I'm still trying to figure out who the intended Hawkeye that was going to.

I think it's a combination of a poor offensive line, an awful QB, and just terrible play calling. Add in only one solid target in LaPorta and this is what you get. The only way this is fixed is if Barta tells Kirk this is it for Brian as OC. I'm not holding my breath on that.

I don't know how Kirk could face the press after Spencer's performance and not give someone a shot. My God he's been as bad as it gets.

That was unreal. The only Hawkeye near was Ragini, but he was running the opposite direction and 20 yards downfield. Hope he gets asked after the game, Who was pass intended for?

Holy Crap I think a monkey just flew out.

Monkeys might just fly out my ass too. Very unlikely, but not impossible. You have seen our offense??

I think we slow them down a bit in the 1st half and then after multiple 3 and outs we get worn down. I will be surprised if we score a touchdown. 31 to 3 seems about right.

Based on BF description of the offense it seems complex. Everything is timing, 11guys have to be doing their job or it goes to hell in a hand basket. Another way to say it would have sounded like this: I run a offense that takes a talented line and I need a QB who can drop dimes...I have...

Relax...I have a better chance of a 3 way with Lily and Beth Mowins than the Hawks winning this game.

I figured Illinois would be in Petras grill all night and they were. It's no secret that our QB has cement shoes on every team we face should bring the house. I will say as bad as that offense was I would like a ruling on the fumble Moss went to the house with. That dude didn't have control of...

I'm sticking with my original prediction, Illinois D Line smothers Petras, Illinois by 10, Bielema eats all of Ferentz boys trick or treat candy by halftime.

I think any team with a pulse has a good chance to beat this Hawk team. You can't expect the defense to save you every weekend. Illinois D line will be up Petras azz so far he won't know what hit him. When the line gives him time he can't consistently hit his open receivers. Illinois by 10.

2nd an 8 down 20 stretch left good call. F you Kirk

If the 2 backups are worse than Petras then Iowa has a serious problem at recognizing QB talent. My God, Petras gives us 0 chance to win this game.

Game is playing out just like many of us thought it would. Defense will slow Michigan down somewhat ,but offense will continue to struggle. If Michigan doesn't turn it over, we don't score. Take it to the bank.

We won and at the end of the day, nobody will care how well Petras played except coaches and him. If we are going to have a chance against Michigan we will need the offense to move the ball. Petras will have to play well or we are in trouble. The Hawk defense is solid, but they can't be on the...

So far Nevada just manhandled the O line. Brutal.

The only thing that would make this game more interesting would be Beth calling the play by play. She's called a few Cubs games this year. Awesome baby
