*****Northwestern vs Iowa Game Thread*****

Huge defensive possession here. Can’t let NW march down the field for a TD

 

[HawkBall23]

WTF is RG3 talking about?

NW has zero reason to run that 3rd down play before the 2min.

Well, if they're plan is to put points on the board before halftime, the clock is their enemy.

Not the smartest crew tonight.

First bad play out of Brown. Didn't identify that blitz.

More like he stared down his target against the blitz.

First read should be the vacated area left by the blitzing backers, which we had a guy wide open over the middle.

He waited until the last possible second for Diaz to make his break.

I like cameras on the NU students. With the cold weather and the sweatshirts you can't see their pocket protectors.

 

[longliveCS40]

He just needed to get the ball out quicker.

Monty is a Beast!!!!!

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

I’m loving the way the defense is playing, though
It’s not easy to put together a 15 play drive against the Iowa defense

So what you're saying is it's turnover time?

 

[Franisdaman]

Montgomery

what a stud

As I was saying....

 

[HawkBall23]

This defense is NAILS tonight - so far, at least.

 

[RoseBowlorBust]

******* amazing D!!!

 

[MAKhawks]

Would have been a two yard loss without the holding. Great stop though

 

[Grayhair1981]

Jackson decided to just NOT block.

He did block but he picked the wrong guy

 

[Rambler Hawk]

James has zero field awareness...

 

[HawkBall23]

So, not only do they not convert, but letting the play go unsnapped before the 2 min timeout, saved Iowa more time.

THANK YOU, NW!!

 

[Hawksfor3]

Let's get at least a Kirk field goal here.

 

[RoseBowlorBust]

Notre Dame 17 Miami 3

 

[longliveCS40]

Let's not go into a shell here with the offense.

 

[QChawks]

Let's get at least a Kirk field goal here.

No chance now

 

[wilson reborn]

“Beautiful linebacker play”

 

[WigPen]

Great stop. Some more points before half would be the icing on the cake.

 

[HawkBall23]

Wow.

Lauck got clowned on that blocking assignment.

yikes

 

[Grayhair1981]

Weak A F by Lauck there

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Welp... So much for that.

Here comes the 3rd and long hand off

 

[longliveCS40]

Just can't handle success. What a terrible time to give up a sack.

 

[BlIIlken2]

Let's not go into a shell here with the offense.

Well we tried not to…

 

[bottlecaps]

exciting whites, huh lol

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

LOL. Fox completely misses the play

 

[TCTrojanFootball]

Did he say “exciting whites”?

 

[IowaCityLit]

Good lord. That looked like a Deacon Hill Brian Ferentz possession.

 

[BlIIlken2]

wtf was that production Fox?! Jfc

 

[Iowameat]

That never works

 

[Franisdaman]

FOOKING JUMP!!!

 

[longliveCS40]

******* JUMP!

 

[bottlecaps]

RG3 gives no fvcks

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Time for a turnover

 

[HawkBall23]

Time for a Pick6 here boys .........

 

[Rambler Hawk]

Why aren't we donning our Veteran Helmets? I am guessing since we are the away team? If so, there should be an exception on Veterans Day...

 

[IowaCityLit]

Come on D.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Good lord. That looked like a Deacon Hill Brian Ferentz possession.

Fat linemen gonna be fat........
