Michigan blitzed Alabama and won; Iowa didn't blitz Missouri and lost

Milroe, an NFL draft pick, lost the game for Alabama because he couldn't throw against the Michigan blitz. The Missouri QB had no such worries against Iowa. He just sat back in his Lazy Boy and tossed the ball around the field while four Iowa D-linemen danced around the line of scrimmage all game long.

Michigan was able to protect its lead and win the game because it sent pressure. And the Dback coming off the edge often arrived at the QB untouched, which can happen when there are more rushers than there are people to block them. So let's be honest: Phil Parker lost this game. Tim Lester lost this game. And Kirk Ferentz lost this game. Had they been coaching Michigan today, Michigan would have lost. IMHO, of course.

BTW: Anybody still want to claim Alabama (9-4) belonged in the CFP? LOL

Iowa poll

I'm gonna try to hide this here, but over on the main Rivals board, I'm in the process of entrapping a Nebraska troll, of whom some or many of you are familiar with.

He is the mentally disturbed individual that like spams posts on this website with disposable usernames/accounts often mocking Iowa, the fans, etc.

He's more prevalent on the FB boards, but has occasionally been seen like spamming on the bball, HBOT, and wrestling boards as well. So while I'm attempting to "hide" this thread here on the wrestling board, I'm not operating under the illusion that this troll won't see it, which is fine.

I don't mind at all if he finds out that he's been set up. ;)

With that out of the way, all I ask from my fellow Hawk fans, is to click the link to the thread below and vote for Nebraska in the poll. I know most of you probably can't post on that main board unless you are subscribed to Rivals or your account was grandfathered in, but you should still be able to vote, and that's all that's needed.

The poll itself is merely a ruse to draw out as many of the spam accounts by this Nebraska fan so that the mods can delete them. There's already 28 accounts that he's created just to vote in this poll and unwittingly shared for the mods to delete.

I simply ask that you all help finish the job by helping Iowa win the poll and get the last laugh, as well. :cool:

P.S. please do be sure to read the poll first before voting
