8 yard pass, 8 yard pass, 8 yard pass. Ugh.

 

[MeatMan]

huge cushion again.

 

[I0WA]

wtf are these 8 yd passes there all day! WTF

 

[hawkinn3]

Defense is outmatched, difference of speed is unreal.

 

[MeatMan]

and again.

 

[gohawkz]

Wow this 2nd half is going just how I feared it would.

 

[EarlSlick]

Iowa needs a stop very bad.

It ain't happening. This game is about to get ugly.

 

[spliff45]

crap..LTP is down

 

[Motigerhawk]

Exactly what I was thinking. The one change they appear to have made is to stop using the most effective thing the Hawks were doing with that being the TE's.

maybe our coaches overthink at half. "Man, they have to figure we will use our TEs. Lets not. That will confuse them."

 

[bphawkeye]

really need the dbs to step up - literally to make a play before 8 yards

 

[bcl20]

It would be awesome if we jumped one of those for a TD...

I'll stop dreaming though.

 

[EarlSlick]

Drink water. LOL.

 

[Herkyalert]

The defense is playing scared and Ohio State is just picking up yards at will.

Phil Parker does nothing to adjust. He just lets his guys look timid and lost.

 

[MeatMan]

okay boys. time to regroup and make a stand. play tough, don't back down.

 

[HawkPrdatr40]

crap..LTP is down

To give team a breathier.

 

[SheagleHawk]

Hey Phil Parker. Stop with that zone crap on defense. The WR's are wide open every play with the cushion you are giving them.

Cushion or wide open deep ball? Lose-lose

 

[1hawkeye1]

As I expected, tosu made adjustments. We didn't.

Oh well, we played well. Coaching sucked in the 2nd half.

 

[vork22]

This is gonna get ugly OSU might still cover the spread as bad as our D is!

 

[cincyhawk]

Both coordinators are what's holding Iowa back. This is another game the staff is screwing up.

Recruiting holds Iowa back. Some of our best starters couldn't/wouldn't get recruited by OSU, even though they lived near Columbus.

I am amazed they are still in the game, tbs.

 

[MeatMan]

you dudes are jumping off the wagon already? the game is still tied, you know?
