If it is 2 down territory, you run it on third down. It's football 101.

especially with Canzeri doing well. but, nah, why the hell do something that makes sense?

 

[seepig]

What the hell are we doing? Of course it would've been 1st down if CJ can catch and doesn't make the idoitic false start. That is execution on the players. Very poor at this point in the season. This like I predicted earlier today is going to be like 6-0 at the half.

The announcer just explained that one perfectly. why two pass plays down there if your going to go for it??!!?!?!

 

[Garandx]

Play calling is the worst ive seen in a long time.

 

[seepig]

Seriously!?! Let me step right into the sack when there was minimal penetration. Also, been running right down their throat? So we go shotgun? Makes perfect sense.

With an empty backfield!!!!!

 

[ibahawkeye]

At least we didn't punt!!!!

Good god this is getting hard to take

 

[MeatMan]

with the running game going well that drive, where is the PA pass? or is Rudock's leg that gimpy that he can't rollout?

 

[bud2380]

Wow, it's essentially 2nd and 3 as this was clearly 4 down territory, so naturally we go shot gun 5 wide against the worst run D in the B1G. I've defended our coaches in the past, but there is no defense of this. Flat incompetence.

But you can bet in Kirk's mind... he's saying "See critics...this is why you punt down here instead of going for it".

 

[H8IAST8]

Davis cant catch the ball for em too...

 

[tksirius]

Why are we struggling with one of the worst teams in FBS?

Situational playcalling has been ABYSMAL under Greg Davis.

This. Unreal.
Add that to the stetch play on 3rd and one with the small back on the first drive and you have two massive coaching blunders in 2 series. But its execution.

 

[biasedHAWKEYE]

No flag there...the guy fell down.

Welcome to Iowa football, you must be new here.

That stretch call was one of the worst calls in recent memory.

It must be demoralizing to play defense for Iowa. You continually shut down opponents, just to lose.

 

[woodyk1]

Nice stop by the D. Hardy playing well.

Unfortunately, it looks like this is going to be a game. Buried inside our own 10 again.
