Hawkeyes go to The Laundromat in Columbus Game Thread

Will it even matter because we won’t have the pussy schedule we had this season.

The last several games that we played against top quality programs would have been shutouts if not for the one touchdown in this game. Ironic isn’t it that Sully did it.

Is it embarrassing or just reality of what we have been the last several years hiding in the Weak Ass West division?

Reality.
Even the “but 10 wins!” crowd realizes it has been smoke & mirrors

The smoke was weed and the mirror had crack on it.

Right it's the o line in general, or people could just realize that 20 mill is going to get you better players than whatever Iowa is spending.

That’s not really how it works. Especially with linemen.

Not this game the Iowa State loss. Win that game and this loss doesn’t knock you out.

Why do people still talk about us in the playoffs when it’s incredibly obvious the program isn’t in the same stratosphere as playoff teams. The combined score of the last 6 real games highlights that

Lol, exactly! I didn’t go check the actual total scores but on another thread I just guessed it was like 180-7. Seriously that’s embarrassing. Our program gets satisfaction of beating the lowly cyclones EXCEPT when it really matters. Ain’t that a bitch getting beat by our bitch EXCEPT when it really matters.

all of osu's defense will be in the nfl, none of iowa's o line will have meaningful careers. you want to blame that on the coach and not the fact this group doesn't have what it takes in athleticism or between the ears be my guest.

Iowa typically has 1-2 generational talent type players on the line. they haven't since linderbaum left. coach em up throw them in the weight room for 4 years but these guys all peaked in high school.

What success we've had running the ball this year has been from our rb and from our te's, wr's,

Iowa needs elite line play to contend with the big boys, the o line is above average at best and the dline is lacking in the depth department.

Yep, OSU s. D line were so much better, bigger stonger it wasn’t close— I see now why the run game was shut
