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

No, pass. It's been working

If you honestly think they should have passed on 4th and 1 then you are a moron

Illinois players waving. That's cool

 

[QChawks]

Love “the wave”

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Wadley is NOT your best short yardage back BF. Or KF. Or both.

This

 

[NorthDSMHawk]

Bench Taylor. Just bad angle after bad angle

They passed on third and one and got like 40 yards. Plus our line still sucks. If your going to run, out Toren in. Last year short yardages was Daniels, why Wadley this year?

 

[percyland]

Guys Miles Taylor may be bad at tackling. But he’s also slow.

And looks like he got yanked.

How about the 3rd and 5 pitch to wadley? Good call?

 

[anon_01irjibf16qqj]

The wave.

The refs
The players
The fans

****ing amazing.

Wrong.

 

[obfuscating]

Play to our competition... we use to qb sneak with a smaller qb too. Our OL gets beat too much.

 

[unoHawkeye]

How about the 3rd and 5 pitch to wadley? Good call?

Considering he picked up 4... yes?

 

[LGEND24]

No. Pass the damn ball. That's how we scored our lone touchdown. Keep doing what works

And the run would have worked had it been executed.

Yes, Wadley out in space is much better than Wadley up the gut.

 

[sob5]

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.

and the others would probably fumble

If you honestly think they should have passed on 4th and 1 then you are a moron

we should pass AND get a TD every play according to most...

 

[hawkeye bb n fb fan]

Wrong.

God I hope so

 

[speed4power]

It was 4th and 1!!!

I'm refering to the downs before that. I don't think I've ever seen a defense selling out on the run so much in that situation, even at the highschool level. 5 D-linemen and 4 linebackers lined up 3 yards behind them on 2nd and 7 lolll

 

[QChawks]

I keep waiting for this team to put it altogether. Offense, defense and special teams.

I’m starting to think they just are not capable.

 

[hawkeye bb n fb fan]

And the run would have worked had it been executed.

But our line is bad

 

[ferentz4life]

Yes, Wadley out in space is much better than Wadley up the gut.

Like that time PSU got the safety?

 

[obfuscating]

Why r we not pressuring the qb?????

 

[sob5]

Like that time PSU got the safety?

but, but that was a bad call

Yes, Iowa should have passed at some point in the 3 downs before their 4th and 1. But to whine because they didn't pass on 4th and 1? Laughable

Good. He should have been out of there before the game started.

 

[takai]

Illinois moving the ball better than we do is a scary thought indeed

Terrible call at that part of the field.

 

[ferentz4life]

This execution thing is so hilarious. If we run 50 yard fly pass patterns every play and “execute” we should complete every time correct?

[fecal particulate]

They got it to 4th and 1, all the OLinemen got blown up, and you're blaming the play calling? BF has done fine this game. The offense is failing to execute

There were 9 guys in the box with the free safety only 5 or 6 yards off the los at the snap. Effectively 10 guys just waiting for that play.

 

[Eternal Return]

Iowa is passing the ball really well. So ... ruin momentum by running too much without success? Can we put the ball in Stanley's hands for the 2nd quarter and see what happens, please???

More Jeff George TV time please

Yep

unless the D executes

 

[texhawk88]

Other than the onside kick, this is the worst coached game so far all season.

 

[hawkeye bb n fb fan]

Hockaday in, wasted redshirt

 

[obfuscating]

Tackle?

 

[Hawktagonapus]

We can't tackle

 

[BubsFinn]

If I see another small guy try to shoulder bump a ball carrier I'm going to throw up.

 

[spiderland]

This one's gonna go down to the wire, fellas.

Welp.
