Football IOWA GAME THREAD

[R U Crazy]

Remember when half of this site thought RU was going to get 6+ wins because we lit up UMass?

Not sure anyone realistically changed their thoughts on the season after 1st game. I just want to see offense continue to evolve and get better.,....Don't want to see any offensive rankings in the 120's

 

[RU848789]

Ok, offense needs to do something here, down 14-0. Obviously. Have had great field position, but did nothing with it.

 

[RUJMM78]

Iowa scores second touchdown on a wide open pass into the end zone.14-0 second quarter.Iowa is exploiting Rutgers lack of a pass rush.

 

[zebnatto]

If I’m Iowa, I onside.

 

[cicero grimes]

D is going to wear down. O needs to make a drive here.

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

The DB play is beyond pathetic, because as you get backed up deeper into the redzone, the easier it is for them to defend the play.

 

[mikebal9]

Not a good drive. But I'm gonna wait to make any grand sweeping generalizations about our team or season.

 

[jersey07080]

Our lack of pass rush has been the difference so far. Not surprising.

 

[RUeric]

Just absolutely nothing from the D-line outside of one play by Previlon in the 1st quarter. If we play man pass defense without pressure on the QB it’s a recipe for disaster.

Our lack of pass rush has been the difference so far. Not surprising.

Yea our DBs are actually pretty good. Zero pass rush will make any secondary look amateur

 

[mikebal9]

Our lack of pass rush has been the difference so far. Not surprising.

I would say our QBs inability to hit 3 wide open WRs for 1st downs is the difference.

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Squandered excellent field position throughout the entire 1st quarter. We had opportunities to put some doubt into the Iowa team and the offense is just not getting it done. Hard to rally from that now on the road against a good Iowa team.

Everytime I see the Iowa logo at midfield, I see Trump's hair now. (thanks to the look a like thread)

I don't think Rutgers has blitzed more than 3 times so far in the game.

Talent is needed at Rutgers. Chris Ash isn't the problem.

Iowa needs to use pass to set up run.

Big drive here!

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Nearly a safety there.

 

[MGSA99]

Defense is gassed and Carter is overthrowing everyone or can't find anyone open and has to throw it away.

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

THROW IT DOWN THE FIELD!

STOP TRYING TO GO LEFT TO RIGHT.

 

[R U Crazy]

Missed open Blackshear....ugggg

 

[bitnez]

Put that on blacksheer and he’s still running

 

[mikebal9]

Make that 4.

 

[Jackson206:)]

Art can do this ****

 

[Rutgers25]

Unreal...Carter is playing awful

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

That wasn't the best pass, but it should've been reeled in.

 

[RUSK97]

I did. I went from 1-2 wins to 2-3 wins. I still think it’s possible to win at least one more game this season.

 

[cicero grimes]

Carter's arm reminds me of Laviano's. In a vacuum, I would not know the difference.

 

[RUScrew85]

Man Cater can't throw it into the ocean right now.

Most of the players are Ash recruits. Can't use the Flood excuse anymore.

[RUbot]

Time for Sitkowski

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Worst case scenario....

 

[MADHAT1]

After last week I'm not going to panic and give up so fast.
But won't be holding my breath expecting Rutgers to turn this game around

 

[bitnez]

Can we give our tackle some help? He’s getting killed

 

[bac2therac]

Iowa is dominating...no one should be surprised. The offense is extremely limited. RU had great field position a couple times and did zero. Now any confidence the defense had has left the building. We are what we are

Also Ray Lucas is a tough listen

 

[mikeru_rivals337032]

Bbbbut I was told Carter is the no brainier choice!

 

[MGSA99]

Zero offense. 5 drives. 5 punts.

 

[RU4Real]

This one is right on the threshold of getting out of hand.

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Our receivers are getting open all over the field. Damn.

Well Coach Ash is responsible for recruiting that talent but I know what you mean. It will be interesting to see how he does at his next job.

 

[RUeric]

We have two great running backs. How about we let them run the ball?
