Why in the world is Vander Zee not in the game more?

Not sure how to summarize this win............... but damn I'll talk it. Also happy we weren't MSU's first conference win.

What a rollercoaster of a season so far. Five double-digit wins, four one score losses, and two double-digit comebacks.

 

[Hawke]

Extend Kirk to 2035

Urban will bring a natty to IC long before then

 

[Seth53]

Hell yeah

Got it. I'll keep everything in mind come Spring

 

[Seth53]

Do we want Nits or Debby to win?

Nice ending to a fugly game. For the first three quarters Gronowski's arm looked as bad as the first half of the Albany game. I gave up on the game, and missed the first field goal drive of the fourth quarter.

Nits

I expect Iowa will not play this poorly next week.

Do we want Nits or Debby to win?

There is no scenario possible where i could root for Debby

 

[SCHawkeye2]

Based on the betting line (-16) and O/U (42) the projected score would be 29-13 Iowa
Defense did its job as expected.
Offense came up short as they did in ISU / IU / OR / USC games.

I was in Omaha today and had to hit the track right when we went down 17-7. When I got back to the pits and we had won 20 to 17 I couldn't believe it. Starting the replay watch now.

 

[SCHawkeye2]

With 3:45 left, Iowa was projected to have an 8% chance to win.

What an ugly game. Just bad football. The defense is not stopping anyone. The last three games I really blame the defense for making the other QB's look good. Total lack of pressure.

As for the offense, what a shit show. Why does Lester insist on throwing the ball when Iowa is ripping off 7-8 yards a carry? Why? Gronowski can run pretty good but is arm sucks. Two lucky catches saved the whole game for Iowa. Hey Lester, Nebraska can't stop the run, do not pass the ball, ever! If you win the coin toss, defer, your offense is not good. Pretty simple stuff.

That's a deal with the devil if I've ever heard one. On the upside, no chance he'd be caught dead in IC for anything more than 23 consecutive hours.

I genuinely woke up this morning believing we could not have a single pass attempt and still win by thirty.
