Football IOWA GAME THREAD

[AreYouNUTS]

It is a negative because it is Maryland showing improvement year over year and Rutgers not.

lol let’s see how they do in conference e play...whipping a team that sucks on D? Who cares?

 

[rucoe89]

That's a ridiculous call.

Not really. He had jersey on the pad. Easy call for refs.

BTW, Iowa is playing PRO STYLE offense. With right personnel, it can work. Of course, if opponent is us a lot can work. :Annoyed

 

[Rufaninga]

Buh's defense has been good today.

 

[mikebal9]

Defense is absolutely sleepwalking out there.

So much over pursuit it's not funny.

Defense is absolutely playing their hearts out. I don't see how you can put any of this on them.

 

[RUSK97]

Young scares me the way he seems to have to move into position to field punts.

 

[rucoe89]

Buh's defense has been good today.

At this point, the D has done all it can do. Same for STs. Offense just never showed up. Hopefully we can keep them under 30.

 

[RUSK97]

Defense is absolutely playing their hearts out. I don't see how you can put any of this on them.

Paired with 3 and outs 5 of the last 7 possessions.

 

[ddsmugs]

What is Art skill that helps vs iowa defense?

Hayes is looking like garbage, and is getting lucky not getting flagged for multiple DPIs.

DB's as a whole aren't doing a great job of keeping the play in front of them. Too many plays where the WR is getting easily behind the coverage.

 

[RUeric]

How do they pick up that flag? So much for the “halo”. Their legs tangle as he’s catching the ball.

 

[NickRU714]

So the Polish Turnover Machine last year who couldn't do anything right got to play with reckless abandon. Carter struggles in one half against a legit good defensive team, and he gets yanked?

If Sit had that first half - wouldn't everyone be calling for Carter?

You proved your own point.
Sit should have been replaced sooner last year.

Are you saying Carter should be treated the same as Sit last year? Kept in regardless of production?

 

[mdh2003]

And here is another negative---Maryland is crushing Syracuse 42-13.

?

This score makes me happy. Very happy.

Too many plays of them just being on the field. This game is on the offense thus far.

 

[Rufaninga]

What is Art skill that helps vs iowa defense?

He has hidden talents- should leave defense guessing

 

[Knightmoves]

Art is in a tough spot here.

Looks like McNulty has given up on Carter?

Stanley has a lot of time in the pocket. We knew that would be an issue this season against good teams. DBs playing man coverage will wear down when QB has all day.

 

[miketd1]

This is going pretty much according to script.

I do find it a bit troubling that I’m not terribly disappointed.

 

[RUScrew85]

Go Sit! Nice throw.

 

[rurichdog]

Home cooking tastes delicious in Iowa City

 

[RUboston]

First Down!

 

[Rufaninga]

bring out the FIRST DOWN chain!

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Nearly vintage Pickowski there

 

[SouthJerseyRU]

that throw has been there all game, Sit hit it where Carter was missing it.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Art is in. Time to win back the starting spot.

 

[RUboston]

Then a near interception.

 

[RUboston]

Do we have a screen pass in our arsenal?

 

[rucoe89]

Iowa defense is deceptively fast. Will be interesting to see how they do against teams like Nebraska.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Or not

 

[Extra Point_rivals157299]

It looks like Iowa has 15 defensive players on the field. They are all over the place.

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

If Sit had that first half - wouldn't everyone be calling for Carter?

You proved your own point.

I'm saying that Sit got to play throwing multiple picks, looking confused, and concussed at some points.

As inept as Carter has looked, he made one bad read with the pick.

It's not Carter's fault that his OL Coach and OC aren't helping him with #94.

 

[rucoe89]

Damn - Korsak is money!

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Punter is elite

 

[Knightmoves]

Down 20-0, 3rd and 9 with Art at QB. What could go wrong?

Haven’t we seen this movie before, ha!

 

[MGSA99]

Punting gets an A+ today. Let's look at that positive.

 

[miketd1]

Defense and Specials are doing well.

 

[RUSK97]

Rutgers = Punter U.

RU will give a punter more opportunities to punt than anywhere else in the country.

 

[rurichdog]

Ok, time for some yard work. Let me know how it ends.

 

[cicero grimes]

Kors for Heisman!

 

[RUScrew85]

Clearly our punter is this year's MVP in the early returns.

 

[miketd1]

Why can’t we spread things out and run it up the gut?
