Iowa has allowed just 34 TD's from scrimmage last 2 yrs

[JonDMiller]

fewest of any FBS school

Hey national media, put that in your SEC pipe and smoke it.

... and the 2010 installment of the Iowa D has the potential to be even better than either of the prior 2 seasons.

Scary.

Does this 34 include all of Ricky's pick sixes?

Good question. The number is even more impressive if it does.

I believe that the wording is meant to emphasize that its counting TDs allowed by the D from the LOS. I'll check the stats myself though ...

[HawkAttack]

That is an impressive stat

34 is, in fact, the number. And, it doesn't include the Stanzi turnovers for TDs.

How many pick-6's did Rick have? Lets get a true # for TD's that the D allowed.

I think he had 4 but this is just from memory. The ones I can recall:

Arizona
Arkansas St.
Michigan
Georgia Tech

I've probably watched every game 5-10 times so I'm pretty confident with this....

That's why I take the stance - you don't know what you got, 'til its gone with Norm

I just posted on the "Message Board Guys I Hate" thread about how I hate the guy who calls people out for their lack of reading comprehension skills...but come on man.

I guess that's not even reading comprehension...that's just reading.

That's crazy considering we weren't even ranked in the top 5 of that category for last year alone. I think Nebraska was at the top with allowing only 16. 2008-09 must have been crazy low.

Huh? Some folks were asking whether the 34 TDs allowed had Stanzi's pick-sixes included in it or not.

I was just confirming what the subject line of the original post indicated.

The 34 is the true number. That is what my post indicated.

HawkCP is right. That is just reading.

Complete fail on my part.

That's fine, however I checked the stats myself because I wanted to make sure that the numbers were accurate (and they were).
