[LetsGoHawks83]

Should have had the ball with one timeout and a minute to play.

Efff right off officials

 

[Franisdaman]

Do they want to get their QB killed?

 

[MAKhawks]

Are they trying to get this QB killed!?!?

Please NW, please keep calling the QB keepers!!!

Definitely better ways to run the clock. Especially with your one good backup QB.

 

[85Bears]

Hank is 11-13

 

[longliveCS40]

Dominant first half.

 

[ConvenientParking]

Long way to go but have to be happy with the effort in that half.

 

[Tailgater371]

Tough to complain, but there has been wide open receivers downfield all night. For whatever reason Brown has thrown short.

This is my issue with him. Even the MN game the offense moved better with Heck. Last week was pretty good, but you still see him check down a lot.

 

[QChawks]

Looks like Michigan is gonna go to half down three to nothing to the Spartans

 

[Franisdaman]

Can we have a re-do of this debacle, please?

We are peaking at the right time, typical KF. We will be a dangerous team if we finish out the year plying at this level.

 

[Hawkfan_08*]

Ugh... we need to move the dang ball again.

I see NFL QB's check down a lot. In fact one of them was Tom Brady.

His checkdowns have been good tonight, Hank is making all the right decisions.

 

[Hawksfor3]

CALL THE HOLDING

EFF THESE CLOWNS

Yeah, I forgot about THEM lol.

 

[Bierhalter2]

Honored I got to experience the two worst blown PI calls in college football history tonight

 

[HawkBall23]

Ifs, buts, candy, nuts, etc .....

that fricking Minnesota debacle.


This is a team very much worthy of a B1GCG and Playoffs berth right now.

 

[Tailgater371]

Did Tom Brady do most check downs with open guys down field?

 

[Hawksfor3]

Can we protect well enough to give James a chance at a return?.............

As long as he's clear of the 5 yard line lol.

 

[RoseBowlorBust]

He didn't. He said if you picked it up earlier you had to pick that up.

That is fine. Lol not gonna worry about it

Dude made a HoF career off being a check down merchant

 

[Franisdaman]

 

[wilson reborn]

Six straight quarters of no score football?

F* them guys.

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Our passing offense is very Bo Nix/Sean Payton/Denver Broncos-esque right now..........

[RoseBowlorBust]

And at the Big House it is 6-0 Michigan St at halftime

 

[85Bears]

That’s a dominant half of football. unless you are troll, there is nothing to beatch about other than the one sided officiating.

 

[oldhawk56]

I tried but the difference in time between the TV and Pat and Dolph makes it impossible

Nah, just Lets you know what to look for..i have ear buds and occasionally let out an F bomb. Pisses my wife (no pics) off cause she doesn't know what's happening yet.

 

[Hurricane88]

Did Tom Brady do most check downs with open guys down field?

No matter what Hank does, you will always side with Heck. It's ok to swallow your pride.

 

[85Bears]

Our passing offense is very Bo Nix/Sean Payton/Denver Broncos-esque right now..........

His checkdowns were smart, and led to the running backs making good yardage,

 

[Hawk48]

Okay……. That’s PI? B1G is a joke

I have never seen these clowns before

 

[Hurricane88]

Our passing offense is very Bo Nix/Sean Payton/Denver Broncos-esque right now..........

My Broncos just beat the Queefs.

 

[85Bears]

Miami getting slapped around by ND. I can see losing a qb like Ohio state but I don’t buy losing a receiver makes you uncompetitive


ohio state is cooked, not a playoff team which is good for Iowa. Iowa will probably be one of the top three big teams now

He had as many catches and more yards and TDs than the next two guys below him on his team had, combined.

The difference between Williams and Phillips, and Moulton, which our esteemed resident lawyer troll @IowaLaw fails to understand is that Moulton had started to figure out how to hit the holes and cutback lanes.....but at the right time.

That doesn't always mean there's gonna be a hole, because of our blocking, but when the holes are there, Moulton was better at hitting it with timing and patience.

Williams finds them a little late (bumping into our OL or defenders as he makes his cut, i.e. "not clean") and Phillips is just a downhill bruiser. He just had the nice backside cut with miles of space to run, but all of our backs should be able to see/hit that.

Moulton can take it the distance.. Phillips can't
