Last 4 games vs. Nebraska

[CP87]

I totaled this up pretty quick (3 minutes were unaccounted for), but the following %'s are pretty accurate.

Over the last 4 games vs. Nebraska, Iowa has...

• trailed for 4% of the game time
• been tied for 27% of the game time
• led for 68% of the game time
• led by at least 2 scores for 49% of the game time

Impressive that we have spent much more time leading by 2+ scores than we have being tied or trailing.

Hey just to clarify - you understand that 8 points is NOT a 2-score lead, right?

Understood. Feel free to double-check my total if you would like, though. I am not sure they would hold up to a thorough audit.

Its scary how close Iowa is to have won 4 in a row in this series.

Only loss in 4 years is a blown double-digit lead and eventual loss in OT in 2014.

It took a lot to lose that 2014 game. I forgot all of the goofy things until I went back through the play-by-play. Iowa threw an INT at the goal-line to deny us points. Right before half KF was actually being aggressive and trying to get points, and Powell fumbled around midfield after a solid completion, Nebraska scores a TD right before half. Iowa gave up a punt return TD and numerous big plays during the second half. Even with that, Iowa takes the lead with less than 2 min to go, only for Nebraska to drive down and kick the tying FG.

Armstrong may be the worst passing QB I have ever seen in the BIG. He flat out sucks! Over throws his receivers all the time. Wish he could play for them like, FOREVER!

Nebraska is flat out lucky this isn't a 4 game winning streak for Iowa and counting.
