Which is why Brian had better never be the head coach.

I guess we'll find out shortly. Im not holding my breath.

 

[Garandx]

Ranking - 13th?

Theyll stay in the top 10.

 

[proudhawkfan21]

Everyone is looking for the problem with the offense. Offensive line is subpar. Play calling is conservative and predictable. QB holds onto the ball too long and is wildly inaccurate. The zone run scheme is just slow and outdated.

 

[cincyhawk]

Theyll stay in the top 10.

After this? Nah.

Our schedule was fraudulent. It's the only explanation for looking this bad.

 

[Garandx]

This game has fully exposed petras though. Nobody can defend him at this point.

What the hell is Hankins playing 10 yards off Bell for on 3rd and long? Bell just f'ing ran down the field 12 yards and casually turned around for a super easy catch.

Haha only if you were one of the donks that already booked Indy trips.

Lol I thought about. I wanted to believe but I figured I better wait couple weeks luckily

He didn't have time. Iowa's tackles are just awful.

No Worries

We will have payback next year at their house

 

[cincyhawk]

I know this. I feel the same way I felt after the Rose Bowl. The whole thing was a lie.

 

[socalhawk]

Who called 300 yards for Bell? Get to the casino now!

 

[ssckelley]

Nah there have been way worse.

Ooooooo Kay

please point me to the game where we left the opposing star wide receiver in single coverage and wide open all game

 

[hawkeyewx]

You have to think more losses are coming if Iowa can't light a fire under their offense. At Wisky and Nebby? Ugh. Even going into the Minny, NW, and Illinois games we will all be nervous.

Fake punt for the TD

Wait for it

 

[Hillcrest1981]

a few things to work on.... OL, DL pressure, QB. But our punter, wow!

 

[thedukeofearl]

Hangover game for the Hawks

Certainly couldn't match the intensity of the Penn State game

 

[cincyhawk]

I mean, tip your hat to Purdue. They out-talented Iowa on the Dline and at wideout.

For as much as Ferentz touts one game at a time, they don't walk the walk and come out ready against teams they should beat.

 

[hawkeyewx]

But, hey, the "Iowa hasn't allowed more than 24 pts" streak will probably continue.

QB play

Play calling

Brian Ferentz being employed

Got it figured out:
No way in hell the NCAA could have Iowa #2 in the country with how they play offense. So NCAA used the NIL and gave the entire Iowa team $$$ to take the day off and have a local
high school team dress in their places. I say this as there is no way in hell any of this game made sense. From start to finish. No way that was Iowa defense out there today. That wasn’t Caleb kicking FGs. The offense, ok well maybe that was the iowa offense out there today.
