1. We got away from running the ball after the first quarter when Adam Robinson was cleared to play. Coker in the first quarter was doing a fine job running the ball and we got away from that. If we could have been more consistent on running the ball, we would have had better opportunities in the passing game.
2. Safty play has been horrendous this year. In the cover 2 scheme our safties should not be getting beat so many times on the outside. that is just unacceptable. If TP had a good arm, we would have been blown out of this game. 3 long pass plays where their WR was wide open down the field that were not made.
3. Lack of effort in the fourth quarter by the whole team. There is absolutely no leadership on this team. Coaches or players.
4. 2 minute offense sucks. you cant throw 3 yard plays in the 2 minute and expect to score.
5. Special teams suck. Field goals, kickoff coverage, kickoffs, punt coverage, punt returns, etc.
This Iowa team probably had too much pre season love. But if we had any kind of leadership on this team, we dont lose to wisconsin or ohio state. We need some guys to step up next year as leaders. we had them in 09, should have had them this year with some many seniors. This season is filled with many coaching errors and players not executing in crunch time.
I will say that we dont need any coaching changes, but i will say the coaches need to reevaluate themselves this offseason. We should still win 9 games this season and its still a good year for our hawks, but is should have been much better. anyways Go Hawks beat minny and what ever sec team we face in the bowl. I still love you Iowa!
