*****Iowa vs Minnesota Game Thread*****

[2D]

No QB and no RB1

Really couldn't get worse for the Hawks right now.

 

[RagnarLothbrok]

Just stick with Hecklinski. If Brown can’t take care of the football, then he has no upside to Heck. Heck will at least make some plays in the passing game.

 

[destro72]

Both QB's suck.

 

[PW Herman]

Another year of thinking Iowa could be special if they had an average QB. Both ours ******* suck.

If they had an overweight Nate Stanley we're legitimately NC contenders. It's infuriating

 

[Hawkeye54545]

What is worse? Getting kicked in the balls or our QB's.

 

[Gonzo_Bloor]

LOLJFC!!!

Every time you think Iowa QB play can't get ANY worse ........

lulz!!!!!!

KF doesn't give a **** about QB play. He's going to make sure they're coached into robots who play like deer caught in headlights no matter who they are.

 

[Doctor Hawktagonapus]

Are we tampering with Underwood yet?

 

[hawkeyewx]

Both of these offenses stink.

 

[Hurricane88]

New game after half time. 0-0. LFG Hawkeyes and WAKE TF UP!!!

 

[NorthernHawkeye]

Brown and Heck have been given every opportunity to succeed.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Remember all the guys saying we should bench Heck?

LOL.

They have both been terrible. Zero protection there..... No timeouts. I don't have a problem with Hank trying to throw that. 9 out of 10 times, that hits the ground and we try a long FG.

3 turnovers.... Not good tho

 

[ottumwan in tx]

Never so glad to see halftime in my life

 

[HawkBall23]

Of all the times for Captain Conservative to not kick the FG at 3rd and 10, with 15 ticks and no timeouts left, Iowa gives up an "AYFKM!?!?!?!" pick.

 

[Jonesy5960]

Short leash for Heck.....There is a reason that Ferentz has really won 1 big BCS game in 28 years. He knows nothing about modern offense and is evidently in love with Hank Brown. Just a mediocre coach at best. If I were Heck, I would transfer as soon as possible.

Really not a huge loss if he does.

 

[2D]

Yeah. They were right. He was facking terrible.

If he was "facking terrible" I can only imagine your razor sharp commentary on Hank's performance.

 

[Iowameat]

We will make half time adjustments. I hope.

 

[Hurricane88]

Three. Three first half turnovers.

And it's still a tied game. LFG

 

[Ty7]

Heck was benched because he's not Kirks 1st choice.

 

[Hootie LaRue]

This offense is a pile of dirty diapers.

 

[BlIIlken2]

QBs suck ***. O line sucks *** and RBs can’t run. Disaster class

 

[Herky T Hawk]

We are playing very un-iowa like in this game. Too many penalties. Multiple turnovers. A blocked punt.

We’re damn lucky that this game is tied. Against a good opponent we’d be down by three touchdowns.

Now let’s pull our heads out of our asses in the 2nd half and put this game away.

[RoseBowlorBust]

Remember all the guys saying we should bench Heck?

Yes he was terrible

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

That's what you get for not having a mobile QB who you're not afraid allowing him to run...............

Trash.

Btw, if you're gonna have a healthy Hank Brown then if you're gonna play Hecklinski, you f***ing NEED to have him as a f***ing run option to free up the offense.

We saw NONE of that in the 1st half.

Scared f***ing bullsh**.

 

[TRHawkeye28]

3 TOs, a missed wide open TD, a pick inside the 10 ... And we are tied haha

If we stop stepping on our own dicks this is a complete blowout

 

[r_desihawk]

time to move on to tradon

;-)

 

[NIhawk79]

Mouton has a finger going sideways it looks like...

Hope that's all.

 

[Opie Oids]

Judas Priest!

 

[BlIIlken2]

Heck was benched because he's not Kirks 1st choice.

He was benched because his arm sucks.

Your KF take is stupid

 

[WDSMHawk]

RT #71 has not been good for most of the year

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Better to drop that. Why are we running that route

Guess we know now why McNeil isn't playing more..........

 

[Mitch122_rivals]

Hank is worse, but we all knew that.

 

[ottumwan in tx]

Looked like they were trying to hurt Moulton , Minnesota must be punks

 

[Hawki93]

Another year of thinking Iowa could be special if they had an average QB. Both ours ******* suck.

Which coach didn't want to bring in another portal QB because we had "enough at the position"? I thought I read somewhere that Ferentz went with that coach's evaluation. Not sure if it was Lester or not.

 

[HawkeyeGenius]

The good news: played about as bad as possible and it's tied 3-3 with Minnesota acting like they won the Superbowl.

The bad news: Seems like Minnesota could steal a win here.

 

[Hurricane88]

Guess we know now why McNeil isn't playing more..........

He needs to stop acting cute and wear some gloves and swallow some pride

 

[r_desihawk]

without moulton this game has changed

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Brown and Heck have been given every opportunity to succeed.

Neither of them have anyone to blame. I'm good with going with Hank in the 2nd half.

This feels like a 6-3 or 9-6 type game. Hank generally is going to take better care of the ball. (Had to force something on that 3rd and no timeouts)

 

[HawkBall23]

The fact this game is 3-3 at halftime says as much - if not more - about Minnesota as it does Iowa.
