******Illinois @ Iowa Official Game Thread******

Death Taxes and Iowa running an end around for minimal gain.

4th down GO FOR IT
 
What a gamble and it pays off for now

Gamble yeah, but playing the numbers. Kind of like how KF has gone for way more 4th downs lately. A possession is worth the risk to sacrifice 20-30 yards

As I type this a failed 4th down... rider her till she bucks ya or you don't ride at all.
 
Dear Brian, the more guys you line up inside the tackle, the more guys the defense will put in the box.
 
Spread the field and run....that play is never going to work! Illinois is not a good team and we are making them look good!
 
When everyone knows your going to run, conventional wisdom would be to pass. Scratch where it itches, go where they aren't, u pick
 
Did ya'll see that defense. Literally 9 in the box. Every week that we don't incorporate audible pass plays and use them, we are shooting ourselves in the foot.
 
Anybody else feel like BF's achilles heel is knowing when to use which back in which situation? Wadley should not be the man on obvious running situations. He's too small.
 
Is the brain trust ever going to realize that our running game is a joke and we need to go pass heavy? Has already cost us two games and now we’re in a battle with Illinois.
