I'm sick of the same old

If we had any offense we'd be a playoff team. Will never win games like this without an offense. Lester needs to be fired if things don't improve this year. He's in his third year and no improvement in passing game. Pathetic !!

2nd half changes: more off tackle runs on first down; shorten the pass routes from 4 to 3 yards.

Well PParker usually makes great adjustments. Now we need the adjustment to spread it out, throw it more and throw it deeper. Our run game is inconsistent to inconsistent to drive the ball, 6 yard gain, then 1 yard gain then oooops, and punt

Do you really think it’s Lester’s fault?

We have seen 4 OCs under KF. It’s been the same for decades—establish the run regardless of what the opposing defense is doing and throw horizontally.

I don’t care what anyone says—this is Kirk’s offense. Sure, an OC might have different wrinkles here and there, but the overall game plan is always the same. And college football is just not played inside a phone booth anymore. And it’s exactly why Iowa has the record they do against top 25 teams over the last several years.

It’s boring.

"Punting is not a bad word at Iowa."
JF actually said that. That simple sentence is all anyone needs to know why our offense has been and always will be the weak link.
He's not a HOF coach. But we live in a world where KH was VP.
So lameness = greatness in this day and age.
