Welp…
Great location for a bowl game. You can not top Broadway. Hawk fans represented well. Out on the street it seemed we out numbered 2-1. However, inside the stadium I’d say Misery 55-45.

Game thoughts-
I liked what I saw on the two or three opening drives. I thought Buie took a step forward. I don’t recall him in the second half. Was he hurt? Patterson and Moulton had nice games.

Obviously the late hit was crushing. A drive or two before- Gill dropped an easy third down catch killing a drive. Both were huge points in the game.

Was Gills catch that lead to fourth down debacle close to being reviewed?

To me outside of QB- Iowa needs pass rushers and secondary help. I’m not sure Iowa has a full complement of answers in that group next year.

Overall this was a 50/50 team all year. Never consitent. For a team that returned 8 starters on defense, to me at least that was the biggest disappointment of the season.

Hopefully the portal brings help and a full complete off season with Lester moves the offense forward.

Wow, hope this kid enjoys running for his life behind that shit show of a line.

I haven't seen him in awhile. Did I miss something?

This game is bananas lol.

I saw a world renowned doctor yesterday and he said to me: "Brian, you're going to live forever!" so I've got that going for me, which is nice.

Anyone else get any good news lately?

Our landscaper just planted a of camellia in our back yard. The deer have already started eating the leaves. What is the best way to keep them out? TIA

Some notes from this morning from the 20 minutes of practice media got to attend.

Anyone make anything special for the full day of bowl games? (I know not the same now that its only 3 games instead of 5-6 like the good ole days).
Family tradition was to make pizza roll and chili. I'm throwing in some homemade buffalo chicken dip this year.
What is everyone else doing?

The UIowa offense getting their last play of the Mizzou game called……….Pure shit-sandwich! CLUSTER-PHUQUE!

…was the point of the game after which I knew we would lose. Up until that point, I really thought we would grind out a W. Yeah, Sully had just thrown the bad pick, but the D immediately blew up their swing pass and put them into what should have been an impossible 2nd and 28. We were about to get the ball back, and the running game was generally picking up at least a couple first downs each possession. Once the flag flew on the sideline though, I knew it would be at least 3 for Mizzou. Just inexcusable to bail them out like that.

Kirk had already gone into turtle mode, but being a tie game now it was inevitable he would pucker up even more and try to play for OT. It was all over but the shouting from the moment of that flag on. I’m sure that dickwad Mizzou coach knew he had the game won at that point, too.
