*** OFFICIAL GAME THREAD: IOWA @ PITTSBURGH ***

[willieh]

You're welcome. I knew I could lead Iowa to the win by starting this thread.

Well done!

This is what it feels like to play to win and succeed in doing that.

 

[willieh]

The toughest thing in life is admitting you are wrong and making changes to remedy your mistakes. Credit the coaches for doing that in this game.

Absolutely. Now, fans can admit the same thing as well.

What do you know, we Kirk "haters" called for CJ for weeks and when he gets in the offense has never looked better this season.

Remember when Jon Miller said this wasn't a similar situation to the JC/Stanzi in 2008? Yeah, he was wrong.

The only thing different is that our backup is better. JR isn't anything like JC.

 

[Melissa]

ha ha. Kurt just mentioned a controversy.

 

[SammiCurr]

Good win Hawks!!! Too bad Ferentz still wants Jake in.

 

[M1911A1Hawkeye]

Way to go Hawks!!!

 

[docholihawk]

Not sure about a qb controversy after this game.

 

[ThunderHawk]

Bye jake

 

[willieh]

We won the game. Here come the critics....

Yep. Bla bla. I choose reality over fans that will cry about what could have been. It's a bumpy ride!

 

[Omaherky]

KF just said QB controversy....really?

Not in my mind!

 

[Mrke1]

I know it'll be all about CJB, but the D played awesome in the second half.

 

[BOHICA]

Did I miss the part where Jake got injured? There is only a controversy with Kirk...

 

[Motigerhawk]

Man, I hope we open it up now. Lets get some excitement back into the program. Great win. Go Hawks! 12-1 and in the playoffs!!

 

[willieh]

What do you know, we Kirk "haters" called for CJ for weeks and when he gets in the offense has never looked better this season.

Now, let's see what happens if CJ is the starter. It took Stanzi a bit to adjust. I remember Jake coming in to rescue Hawks vs ISU once.

 

[Melissa]

The only thing different is that our backup is better. JR isn't anything like JC.

But, it is obviously a similar situation. The change even happened at Pitt, for cripes sake. The way Kirk just mentioned the controversy though, it looks like maybe Jake plays next week.

 

[jacknicholson]

Well, we did give this QB a career day thus far.

No doubt, game of his life. Team on offense and defense certainly helped.....

 

[Omaherky]

I know it'll be all about CJB, but the D played awesome in the second half.

8+ minute drives on offense will do that for your D!!

 

[cincyhawk]

Absolutely. Now, fans can admit the same thing as well.

Biggest critic here. I just did. Hope he keeps proving me wrong.
