****Iowa vs Vanderbilt Game Thread*****

[herkhatescy2]

We could be up 14-3. **** you Xavier Williams.

Idiot. Did you ever think that it was the throw? Can't throw the 5 yards at 100 mph.

 

[Maroons02]

What did Patterson do to lose out to Williams as the 2nd back?

 

[AndreTheHawk]

Now the announcers are calling out how many polacks we have on the team.

Not real bright are they, pretty sure Vander Zee isn't Polish.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

The holes in the line sure have disappeared.

Happens as teams adjust.... Thats why we needed to get that 2nd TD when things were rolling.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

So far, int killed all offensive momentum.

They need to do better attacking Vanderbilt's aggressiveness up front, defensively.

 

[QChawks]

If Iowa had a capable offense we’d be in the CFP

but instead we get the finest 8-4 bowls

 

[Anon1751586422]

That interception in the Endzone is going to kill us. Should be 14 to 0 with all the momentum

 

[AnonymousNolonger]

When you have dominated the 1st half, 7-3 feels disappointing. That’s if they don’t score to finish the half.

 

[Randon]

Should be 14-3. Thanks Lester!

 

[TCTrojanFootball]

Not a good series there for Lauck

 

[Demger]

Blitzing with no worry that MG and Iowa offense can handle it

4 man rush on that last one.

 

[r_desihawk]

offense has done its job scoring a TD.
it’s time phil and levar’s units put up some points

 

[QChawks]

As usually Phil Parker has to try and bail out KF

 

[Grayhair1981]

The play call was absolutely the problem. Anyone on Planet Earth think Vanderbilt is stopping 4 runs from the 4 yard line? F No! (we likely need 1 run).

Got cute and got burned. Why do OC's pull that ****? The really odd part is that Gronowski actually threw a really nice pass. That's shocking too.

So if getting 4 yds on three carries was guaranteed, why would you punt on 4th and 2 feet? Nothing was guaranteed from the 4 yard line. It was a great call and perfect throw.

 

[83Hawk]

This is why the Hawks can't beat ranked teams....mistakes here and there that end up being costly.

 

[RagnarLothbrok]

You can see how Iowa had the talent this season to compete against teams like Indiana and Oregon; and you can see why they lost those close games (dropped TD that gets intercepted, dropped INT, untimely penalties that kill drives, missed blocks that could have easily been a turnover, etc.)

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Offense has had a month to prepare and they just make mistake after mistake.

BAU. Execution is the root of a lot of our offensive struggles over the past 5+ years.

You could run a perfect play and get a wide open layup and they brick it off the bottom part of the rim. That is our football offense in a nutshell..................

Where’s the O-line trophy?

Did you see the size of that thing? It’s like a big safe. Need a truck

 

[QChawks]

 

[longliveCS40]

Pavia has been pure **** so far.

 

[r_desihawk]

how does a sec bottom dweller get so many athletes?

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

What exactly was Vandy doing on that?

 

[BubsFinn]

Let's get this stop!

 

[BubsFinn]

They're going to get bailed out again?

 

[QChawks]

lol

 

[hawkeyewx]

Jesus Iowa, what are you doing????????

 

[ottumwan in tx]

Refs sux

 

[2D]

What a total bail out. Unreal.

 

[herkhatescy2]

Weren't we the least penalized team in the country? These Big12 refs suck.

 

[Hawkfan_08*]

TJ... could have had another.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Nothing gets past these refs.... Except all those holds by Vandy's o-line

 

[Grayhair1981]

Two dropped INTs by Hall

 

[Hawk48]

Hall can't catch anything

 

[Demger]

Hall....... I know why you're a DB now. And a decent one.

 

[83Hawk]

it’s all on you defense

Problem is, they can't do it the whole game.

 

[BubsFinn]

Eventually, either we are going to get one of these interceptions or they're going to complete it for a score.

 

[Iowameat]

They are going to make one of these throws

 

[Anon1750875978]

What's X doing in deep coverage???

 

[QChawks]

The defense has held Vanderbilt to 78 yards

And yet we are clinging to a four-point lead

Classic Iowa football
