Let's get it over, Hawks vs Peds official game thread.

Wow, 63 total yards in the first half.

Hooray

 

[HaydenHawk56]

Wow....harsh...but true out of the half time guys.

 

[NCHawker]

The D is gassed. I expect PSU to open it up in the second half. What I mean is more down field vertical passing and a deep ball or two

 

[trj]

Handcuffed by what exactly? Stupidity?

What is he supposed to do with a quarterback that at best is 70%? Half the the playbook is gone.

 

[thedukeofearl]

My gawd this offense is pathetic

You are being too kind

 

[NCHawker]

Really not much different than last year

 

[SCHawkeye2]

Neuheisel rightfully ripping Iowa offense & the Ferentz’s for doing nothing different for years and expecting different result.
Everyone who is not a homer can see the problem and the solution.

 

[dahlhawk]

The noncalls have been brutal. The holding, bad spots, the uncalled facemask. Is this why they win white-outs? Iowa also shooting themselves in the foot.

 

[Ben Rumson]

Penn St....I'm not really impressed to be honest. The game is closer than what it looks outside of some stupid bad breaks and 50 50s not going our way.....all but Iowa's offense holds it back.

If we had the 99th ranked offense with last 3or4 years of defense we'd be blowing these shower boys asses out right now! GAME WISE!

 

[HaydenHawk56]

Ok....time to ask...is Cade the answer? Or does it not really matter who is back there?

Agreed average offense Iowa is 4-0

 

[headlock]

if the breaks go the other way its zero zero.

Only problem is they get the ball start of the second half . So your only hopeful it’s 10 zip

Can’t make excuses…the game is/was there taking.

 

[thedukeofearl]

Even the announcers smell the bullshit on the refs.

I would like to execute the MFing announcers

Then he should not be playing.
He can’t stand in the (non-existent) pocket hoping for receivers to get open.

 

[vork22]

Can anyone explain why we didn’t challenge the spot on the sneak? That was a game changing spot.

Oh but we've had a great last 23 year's they'll say. And yes we have but mediocrity is why businesses fail and never grow. And finally disappear into irrelevance!

I just listened to that. He was being diplomatic.

Most FBS programs have WRs that can play at the collegiate level and at least one if not two serviceable backup QBs. We seem to have none of the above.

If Cade was close to 100%

And had a few innovative plays in the book

Maybe and Perhaps, things would be a little different
