Hawkeyes - Cornhuskers Game Thread

What a game. That double punt double fumble fiasco still blows my mind.

Missed the whole game. Had things that needed to get done ASAP. Needed to concentrate on what I was doing, so no radio.

Nice trouncing, judging by the score.

Posted on a husker board:

Iowa develops dudes and has a slit your throat physicality. They are brawlers. Contenders vs pretenders. We are soft

I believe Kirk now has more wins at Memorial Stadium than Matt does. lol.

Great halftime adjustments by Parker and Lester.

What are those?

As was predicted before the recent Big Ten expansion, wins are now harder to come by. This Iowa team is better than both of the last two Iowa teams that won the Big Ten West. This team is a couple bad bounces away from the playoff.

Looked to me like that should have been targeting. Convince me otherwise.

First contactwasshouldertoshoulder then glanced off th facemask. Nontargeting.

Not sure about offense, but one thing there on defense was more slants from the DL with an OLB walking up on the snap opposite the slant, I'm guessing to keep their RB from bouncing it outside.

Look I’m not complaining, but by the level of the law, that’s targeting, right? What am I missing?

From one angle, it looked to me like IA player was in downward motion to knock ball loose, while Nebby player, also in downward motion, initiated the contact. It was really close, but if anything, the head to head looked incidental to the majority of the contact. I initially thought targeting as well, but a replay convinced me otherwise. One would almost need a replay with slow motion feature. The non-call was correct IMO.
