Just sitting here waiting for the day that KF decides enough is enough.


Because this offense will never change.

Look like a world-beater vs any lower-division or midmajor conference team with zero pulse and then look like they belong in D3 or JUCO vs anybody with a pules of 1 heartbeat every 30 minutes.

Most of the whole first half was conservative play calling didn’t see many shots down field till we had the ball with 2min left. Not really extending the defense very much.

Without special teams, we'd have a big fat goose egg. Poor showing on both sides of the ball. The offense has no faith in itself and the defense is playing soft coverage. Michigan's O is doing whatever it wants and continues to get comfortable. Their defense has no fear. Diaz has a tag on him and I've seen very little DJV which doesn't bode well. I don't like the way this game is going at all as Michigan is controlling the LOS too. Unless a dramatic change happens or a big turnover, Hawks are in big trouble.

No, more like Michigan backs got Tony covered. 2 of them are talking smack to Tony on that last broken up pass.

This is not UNI type talent.
It’s pretty obvious Michigan took his comments personally. They’re not going to let him do ****. Need to use that as a decoy and start hitting your other targets. Need to get RV Z and DJ V involved right away in the second half.

It's halftime in Michigan Stadium and Iowa is down 10-7. The Hawkeyes are not doing too bad. Blue receives the KO but the Iowa defense seems to be stiffening up against the run. Their big WR is a problem.

Michigan coach going into the locker room. “If they hadn’t scored on that kickoff return it’d be 10-0.” Yeah, ok
Its because he knows Iowa can't/won't do anything on offense and it would be a 10-0 - or 10-3 at worst - game without that KOR TD.

Serious conversation needs to happen about firing Lester. he is the one who didn't want a QB in the portal. And his offense in the third year is still bad.

The overhead shot towards end of half with the Michigan DBs right on LOS and everyone within 10 yards of LOS sums up our pathetic offensive existence this decade.
