With an A for this weeks gameplay. I believe NW was the only other A. They recognized the pure domnination from the part of the game that mattered.
It was 42-14, before we put in our subs with 11 minutes left. What more do you want? The final score was not indicative of how bad Iowa beat Purdue. It was our most dominant performance since Iowa State.I am not critical but that was not an A performance.
I want Kurt to understand that if his team has to be tough enough to play 4 quarters against Michigan, Wisconsin & Michigan State, then we have to be up to play 4 quarters against Purdue too. Game experience is invaluable, you don't figure this out from a good week of practice. I understand the need to get second & third teamersp laying time but you do that by subbimg them in individually.
It was a gameplay grade. A grades are indicative of mastery & we due to the fact that Purdue came back, we ceratinly didn't master gameplay for 4 quarters.
I think what a lot of people are disappointed with is the obvious severe drop in quality of players from 1st string to 2nd-3rd string. Yes, there will be some dropoff (that's why they aren't starting). However, I would expect the 2nd and 3rd stringers to put up a better fight against Purdue's 1st string and that just wasn't the case. It was men against boys for much of the 4th quarter and Purdue is just not that good.First, who's Kurt?
Second, people would be pissed as hell if he left the starters in and somebody got hurt. Remember the uproar about A-Rob getting hurt vs MSU. Plus everyone's been screaming that we needed to have a dominant win where we could get some snaps for the second team. We get that and people STILL bitch.
Some of you will find something to bitch about no matter what happens.

I am not looking for something to bitch about. Sick & tired of the last 16 years of playing not to lose. We are better than that.
Did we play not to lose Saturday? I must have missed that.

I agree with this. I certainly don't want Iowa to be one of those teams that keeps the 1st string in while beating teams by 50-60 points. That's just embarrassing.I am not looking for something to bitch about. Sick & tired of the last 16 years of playing not to lose. We are better than that.
Why are some Iowa fans hyper critical, even in victory?
Why can't some people just Be Happy Iowa Won?
