Just got home from the game, this loss was a real team loss, but Brian.......there is just no cohesion to anything he runs offensively. Watching Purdue run basically 3 plays or variations of said plays, it was amazing their attention to detail. They sold every fake, picked up every blitz but one, and their QB made every throw. Iowa on the other hand, couldn't find any continuity. What does Iowa do well offensively? What are they good at? Brian has no signature play or go to scheme that works. In his offense he goes for every 2nd and short or third and short with a run. Almost every offensive coordinator in the country takes their shots on 2 and short. The predictability of Iowa's offense is pathetic. They have to earn every yard on any drive and that is very difficult. The defense was not steller, but at the end of the day 24 points is acceptable. They played nearly the entire game and had the big stop on the touchback giving Iowa all the momentum. We then attempt deep-drop throws at the 20 yard line and get sacked on consecutive plays. The play that just leaves me reeling is the QB sneak on third down when we trying to score without running clock. I would have been fine with a run, pass, or most anything but a sneak? Petras is the other problem, he makes bad decisions and he is unforgiveable slow. The same defensive tackle ran him him down on countless plays, many of these plays he left the pocket for no reason. I'm not melting down, I didn't believe Iowa was the 2nd ranked in the country nor that this game was going to be an easy win. I did think it was going to be a close game, I was wrong.
