Just curious if anyone knows what happened to the post game show on 600 WMT with Eric Thigpen, Bob Bruce, & Andy Peterson? Have not heard it this year.

I listen to Bob on my 15 minute drive home at 5pm, but looks like they have a different approach this year from post game radio....wondering if Thigpen's commentary was "too real" for some people to handle...meaning the Athletic Dept

How do you not try to win the game with 1:17 w/ 2 TO? Players busting their tails off deserve more than that ending...Seemed like I was watching Ohio St game from 2009 at the end of regulation yesterday

Last pt...An OL minded Head Coach doesn't go for it on 4th & 1. Trust your guys.

If we actually get a KO return past the 25 or 30, I would agree. But starting at the 20, plus incurring a penalty, I go with "play it safe".

But in the 3rd OT, after the ISU penalty makes it 4th-and-1, we needed to go for it.

The problem was that once it got to 3rd OT we were doomed. They could stop us on the mandatory 2-pt try at least one in three tries. We would NOT have been able to stop them on ANY 2-pt attempts.
 
People probably spoke out that Bob Bruce is full of crap. ET was probably too honest for the Iowa brass but he was a good listen. Bruce is/was just terrible.

1. We didn't get the penalty until after running up the middle from a double TE set and letting the clock run down.

2. How doesn't playing for OT increase our "safety"?
