Lol at Braun

So how did they call it for Iowa on the field if our guy supposedly had the ball at the bottom.

Stupid end to a stupid game.

HawkCat · 2026-11-07T21:46:31-0600

Blown recovery on that onside kick. There for the taking.

Ballgame… dream ended

Because he didn’t.

******* Kobie McKenzie absolutely whiffing a tackle, what else is new. What a ******* disappointment.

jensberg · 2026-11-07T21:47:55-0600

Perfect way to end the game missed tackle

So Iowa beat Wiscyby 30 and us by 14...so we are 16 pts better than Wisky...that is what I am going to take away from this debacle

HawkCat · 2026-11-07T21:51:49-0600

Nicco was 24/32 with no interceptions but also had three times as many rushes as any of our RBs. A symptom of our OL play.

And Iowa lost @minnesota and we go there in two weeks after likely three straight losses.

not in a good place right now

Not a complete team. Got exposed tonight.

But if we win in Columbus next weekend I don't care what else happens all season including the bowl game.

Jaguar 88 · 2026-11-07T22:05:08-0600

Without Chiles I would say 6-6 is a probability at this point. We are going to lose in Columbus for sure. Minnesota and Illinois are solid teams, more dynamic than what the Cats brought tonight. Chip Kelly needs better players it seems. Especially at the line. Hell both lines are substandard. We drank the purple Kool Aid, now the effect has worn off. We need Chiles back ASAP and the rest of the injured guys or the early promise was indeed an illusion.

Rodenthater · 2026-11-07T22:06:26-0600

Six qb Sacks….6

PAHiCat77 · 2026-11-07T22:11:13-0600

Take away the kickoff return for a td and don’t drop that pass for a TD and we are tied. As poorly as the game felt, two plays would have changed a lot.

6-6 after such a great start would be very disappointing to say the least but I guess it's certainly possible

Middling Big Ten team...just a question of whether we're at the top or the bottom of the middle...

Middling indeed!!! Ryan must be wondering why he spent so much on a stadium that will look only half full if this dross on the field continues.
