    same CBS announcers as last week

    I'm in favor of anything that puts Jenny Dell on my screen.

    tOSU at Iowa line as of 5:55 AM Game Day

    Would guess it will be a different gameplan against OSU. Michigan's QB had shown accuracy and decision making issues while being an insane athlete. D looked to be taking their chances with keeping him in the pocket with the idea that his issues would surface. Sayin is an incredibly accurate...

    Washington vs Minnesota

    Iowa blitzed the hell out of Indiana all game last year including on the slant route that turned into the long winning score.

    Iowa at Mich. line as of 1:55 PM Game Day

    Not sure I agree that Underwood is a QB that will pick a secondary apart at this point in his career. He's more likely to beat teams with his feet/athleticism while making plays on play action and RPOs. I don't see him as someone that is going to beat teams using 3 step and 5 step concepts. Very...

    Is Colorado really bad or jNW much better?

    both

    The punt returner position for those who are squawking

    Always.

    Re-watched the game and here are some tidbits

    This is certainly a take.

    The punt returner position for those who are squawking

    I'm not taking a side as to who should be returning punts. However, job number one of a returner is possession of the ball. Don't turn it over. No issues there with either one. Job number two is to catch all catchable punts. It's fair to debate whether or not the ball that James let hit the...

    Re-watched the game and here are some tidbits

    A second or third level RPO against a loaded box is more often than not a predetermined throw because the run read is going to be taken away based on alignment. Defenses are much better these days at making RPO reads cloudy, especially for teams that don't major in RPOs like Iowa. Not...

    Does Anyone Think that Rogers...

    He tried to ride his defense to a win against a more experienced team. They have some warts (so do we) offensively, and he knew that. Like good coaches do, he put his team in position to win at the end. It may/may not be his preferred style of play, but it's what his team needed that night. Just...

    Tonight's refs made a big clock error that I noticed; failed to put time back on the clock

    I won't comment on the missed calls as there seemed to be many. However, their mechanics on Iowa's punt was horrendous. Iowa was utilizing the option to switch jerseys to OL #s so they can utilize unbalanced formations. (An utterly moronic rule that zero coaches wanted by the way.) They were...

    Khamari Moulton Injury?

    Wears a brace on that right shoulder. Looked like an aggravation of something already existing.

    *****Iowa St vs Iowa Game Thread*****

    Not sure it's possible to make a judgement about either defensive line based on the opponents last week.

    Goal line solution?

    Wildcat has run its course. Play the QB so the defense has to respect the pass instead of loading up against the run.

    QB Battle: Jeremy Hecklinski appears to have passed Hank Brown on the Depth Chart. QB was NOT a Transfer Portal Priority per KF on Dec 18

    That wasn't a 50/50 ball. While he was under pressure, the ball needed to be thrown where only our guy can catch it or it falls incomplete. It's a TD for us, or they take over deep in their own end. That's likely a part of being inexperienced, but those are the decisions that winning teams make.
