Iowa v Iowa State Game Thread

[CAARHawk]

There is the half of playing the guys with whom you feel comfortable. Next a half of guys who can make a difference.

 

[Garandx]

Huh?

Outside of their **** ups on offense they have been moving the ball at will against out D and our offensive play calling and execution makes their D look stellar.

 

[ottoman89]

Yeah....WTF?

Just prior to that they were saying how it seemed almost like two different games. Iowa dominated Q1, Iowa State Q2. I'm pretty sure he was referring to that.

Some reason a husker fan has an account on HN?

It is a free message board and I am not here to be an a-hole. Now that we are in the B1G with you guys, thought it would be nice to get some perspective from your end of things.

1 pass to Davis and 1 pass to McNutt, the box is loaded with 8-9 men how can Coker not fumble with pounding he is getting, and vandy loooked like Jake 100 mph 5 yrd pass, to bad KF did his usual get a lead ang ultra conservative play calling of run run run

 

[hawkijustin]

I just dont understand why we are being so bland. Every play goes to coker? Why? I can sit here and call every play we run before the ball is snapped

 

[edr247]

cause you're on the 5.

Again, I am upset about the fumble back, but not the conservative calls from the 5. I'm talking about the drive after they scored that started on the 20. I'm talking about the last drive before half.

Why arent we going for the miss match on mcnutt? Don't get it

Losing the battle in the trenches=not a good sign...

Its Iowa football, we WILL give the ball to coker until he scores, to make him feel better and because we dont really play to win until we are behind.

Vandy isnt getting enough time.

 

[hawkinn3]

Vandy has plenty of time, imo, either nobody is open or he is rattled.

 

[Hawkfromnorwalk]

Wasn't our OLine supposed to be fantastic?

 

[greenspade21]

Tobin is getting beat alot

 

[cibula11]

Vandy isnt getting enough time.

uh, that's not the problem. Bad field position was. you can't run PA when you're on the 5. And drop back passes become risky in your own endzone.

Wasnt Iowa state supposed to be terrible after last week?

 

[hawkijustin]

Nobody is open because they know whats coming. You can see what iowa is doing before each and every snap.

 

[cibula11]

OH WOW! You all realize it is just the 1st half right?

 

[stevoskin]

We just have to set the tone after half. We get the ball first. Need to score right away.

Yes, at least move the ball with confidence... but a TD could do a lot for the entire team.
