Conservative Kirk is back

[Suburbian Hawk]

Good thing he has a lifetime contract.

Good thing he has a lifetime contract.

Please stick to game thread. TIA

Actually, this is worth its own thread.

He's a loser as a coach. He coaches to lose and deserves it.

Yeah he's back he got his extension so he knew he can do what he wants. This was just an bad performance by the players the refs and the coaching, terrible from every angle.

Let's give him another extension!!

Maybe whoever mentioned in the other thread about CJB telling his team to practice harder shows a lot of what this week may have looked like from Iowa. I don't really think anyone out there look prepared and hopefully this loss gives the team the motivation to never tread lightly the rest of the season

All we had to do was run out the clock, and we couldn't even do that. Absolutely, unfathomably pathetic.

Why didn't we pass on that last drive?

I was worried when I heard this, too. Terrible line play on both sides of the ball, dropped passes, killer penalties. That equals an unprepared team. Looks like this team may be another Hawkeye team that can't handle the expectations.

Ferentz Fear Factor. Playing to not lose instead of win. There could have been an interception!!!!!!!!!!!

This did bother me a lot when it happened. You could see the discomfort in all our player's demeanor when we ran, ran, and then were faced with a 3rd and long. I just don't know why KF didn't consider passing when our passing game had picked them apart all game. He immediately went in to "let's hope we somehow break a big run" mode when we had like 40 rushing yard to that point
