Not that it matters, but on a neutral and in Iowa City, Iowa beats Arizona right?

We have our problems, but it should be interesting to see where these teams are at the conclusion of the regular season.

we make one less dumb error, we win last night.

can't drop TD passes, over throw TD passes, give up pick 6 interceptions, allow punts to be blocked, allow 100 yard ko returns, have personal foul penalties, get xtra points blocked, etc,, etc.

it is amazing to me that we only lost by 7!

If AZ doesn't fumble a punt and throw a pick 6 of their own they might have beaten us by 21+.

Everyone needs to look at the flip side. Also, they scored on our defense when it mattered the most on their final drive.

I would like to think that we could beat them 6 of 10 on a neutral field, but I think anything more than that is a stretch.

Not that it matters, but dumb idea for a post. We got our chance to play them in IC last year. A natioanal championship team would beat this Arizona team ANYWHERE.

Give the Arizona fans credit...they had the atmosphere rocking even rebounded after Binns scored on the pick 6.....I also think had this been played on a neutral field or in Kinnick that we would have won.

No excuses for the crapy special teams play though.

I agree. And if the starting RB's were BW and JH I believe the game would have played out differently as well.

100% agreed. I definitely think we were probably the better team, but we definitely didn't play like it. They brought their "A" game and we didn't, so last night we lost to the better team and although it may have been different at home or on a neutral field, it doesn't matter because it wasn't.

Okay, I agree with you, but can I just say that each team's pick six was not created equal. Ours went through the hands of our own receiver. Theirs was snatched out of the air by a freak with gadget arms. Not a great decision by Foles, but very different from being in the right place at the right time.
