Pathetic, gutless football.

 

[seepig]

NO wonder why they don't have to huddle up. Even I could call a QB sneak every play in 2 secs

Time for Nico. Not enjoying watching Donatell hug the ball carrier to the ground.

 

[CAARHawk]

Cooper in to replace LTP and doing much better. The next good play Davis makes on the line will be his first. People get obsessed with his size, but there have been plenty of big DT's recruited by Iowa who have never panned out.

Wait til we play mobile B1G mobile QB's with better surrounding casts...

 

[CubHawk1237]

Gee, Hawks. The 3rd down QB keeper is the same play that has killed this team for the past 10 years. At what point do we make a point to stop that play?

 

[seepig]

I think Reese is out of his element coaching the D Line and with young guys up front we are going to pay DEARLY

 

[NorthernHawkI]

UNI's defense is better

 

[dekhawks]

I feel our defensive backs will be leading tacklers in several games this season

 

[Garandx]

Dfense looks totally lost

 

[Hawkeye11en1]

Rut roh

 

[DuffMan]

Vandenburg poor pocket awareness... needs to step up in the pocket

dyerhawk poor football awareness. Both tackles got beat on that play. No where to step up too.

 

[dekhawks]

Our offense will need to outscore teams this year.

 

[ibahawkeye]

Tackling has been so poor thus far.

 

[tksirius]

Didn't NIU lose their entire OL after last year? WTF?

 

[NorthernHawkI]

Oh bad tackling, bad pursuit, not getting off blocks oh boy its going to be a long year

 

[CubHawk1237]

Our tackling actually looks worse than last year. I didn't think that was possible. We can't tackle these MAC RBs. How the hell are we going to bring down Le'Veon Bell?

 

[Garandx]

Didn't NIU lose their entire OL after last year? WTF?

Defense is that bad

 

[spliff45]

5 new OL for NIU > Iowa's DL

 

[Hillcrest1981]

Just give them the TD and let's go.
