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

[doughuddl2_rivals]

I have no clue how Iowa ever convinced Diaz to come but dam he’s good

Iowa's NIL QB money went to him.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Stop with the sneaks. Damn

I feel like they're running them without the understanding of just how far away they are from the line to gain.........................and I'm being dead serious about that.

 

[r_desihawk]

I honestly think Lester called the QB sneak... Thinking we were on the half yard line.... Which is where Moulton got to, but we were magically shorted again on the spot

yeah i was pretty shocked when the los turned out to be that far away also

Playoff material is what they said. National champ material is a much higher threshold.

Same thing. One hand washers the other’s back

 

[3-D_chess]

Classic Hawkeyes

Go absolutely conservative as possible until you’re forced to actually have to do something

I can't wait for his memoirs where he explains why throwing the ball over the top is a dumb way to start a football game.

 

[Sett1997]

Okay, I can be taken off suicide watch.

 

[Hawk48]

Iowa will probably end up winning this game. Probably.

But the fact this game is in doubt is the fundamental problem with Kirk Ferentz and why Iowa has never won anything of consequence Kirk’s entire career.

Iowa State is playing to win. Iowa is playing not to lose. Look at the body language of both teams. There is no fire in any Iowa player. None. Just ho hum.

Given Iowa football history would not bet Iowa win. Seen this **** under Ferentz too many years.

 

[Demger]

They are consistently getting 4-7 yards on first downs running the ball up the middle.

 

[MFinn]

I really wasn't expecting the defense to get pushed back like this.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

ZERO pressure by our D line

 

[2D]

Can't believe this defense is getting pushed around by such a mediocre OLine and Running back.

 

[Demger]

Okay, I can be taken off suicide watch.

No so fast my friend!!! (who knows how this plays out!)

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Just positive yardage every time they run the ball. Why?

That's disconcerting considering their offensive line is a "work in progress" by P4 standards.............

 

[Opie Oids]

Man Iowa’s lines are getting pushed around on both sides of the ball.

 

[TheGreatDivider101]

Same thing. One hand washers the other’s back

Ok. James Madison and Tulane made the playoff last year and I doubt you would pick either one to make the Championship Game.

 

[r_desihawk]

epenesa!

 

[Rambler Hawk]

I'm about ready to say eff it and start watching porn.

Soft or Hard?

 

[IowaHawkeyes1989]

The d line isn’t good enough to get pressure. Reynor is setting up camp in his drop backs

 

[Demger]

Nice 3 and OUT D!!

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Fair catch.... Fair catch....fair catch.

At least that one didn't roll to the 4

 

[QChawks]

back to turtle mode!

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

We're not getting the blocking off the snap that we need to set up punt returns........

People don't realize how important that is.

 

[HawkBall23]

This offense needs more help than a guy who's only gonna just fair catch or let the ball hit the ground and roll back at PR ..........

 

[r_desihawk]

we are going to have to win passing
they are 100% anti-moulton

 

[Demger]

Blow the whistle!

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Throw on 3rd and short too....

Run isn't get push

 

[Rambler Hawk]

Okay, I can be taken off suicide watch.

How about a welfare check at halftime?

 

[HawkBall23]

Brown goes for a while still if keeps feet there .....

 

[MFinn]

Are you going to blow the whistle or wait until they rip the ball out?

 

[uihawk82]

What do you think of our QB sneak. It is weak

 

[Demger]

Tough throw!

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

PLAY ACTION ALL NIGHT.

They are absolutely selling out

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

That scramble by Brown was the best offensive play of the game so far

(I'll explain if you want)

 

[HawkBall23]

Brown's hands are not good.

Fumbles quite a bit on keepers and sneak attempts.

 

[QChawks]

feed Diaz

 

[Hawksfor3]

Not ideal for a QB keeper, but at this point, hell to the yes.

 

[ottumwan in tx]

Boogeyman that’s what i am

 

[JerseyCityHawk]

WE NEED TO GET IN THE END-ZONE TONY DIAZ MORE PLEASE

 

[2D]

Tony starting to get wide open. Take advantage.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Pass to open up that second half run... Where Moulton absolutely gashes them
