*****Iowa vs Mich St Game Thread*****

[Bigg2]

It seems Iowa has been on the wrong side of some QB breakout games before. When will an Iowa QB have a breakout game?

 

[ClarindaA's]

Agreed…

Agreed, but any decent QB play and we win this game

 

[BubsFinn]

The first half was the difference in the game 12-0 at the half. Iowa can't give away a half a game and expect to win.

We really gave away three quarters.

* KF has a $30M buyout.

* He is signed thru 2029.

Pay it.

The B1G tv contract is huge.
Iowa has to be rolling in $$$.

Pay the buyout and get his arrogant ass out of IC.

 

[Rambler Hawk]

lester is a good oc as good as most in the b1g. we need a qb
phil parker i don’t know what to say…could not stop even 1 drive today (other than the INT)

Is zero punts a record? Or does Iowa already own that record?!🤪

 

[Buffalo43]

Sorry but defensive allowed no punts

 

[DougFHawkeye]

Sorry but defensive allowed no punts

That's football "snort"

 

[BubsFinn]

Sorry but defensive allowed no punts

Forced. Defense forced no punts. MSU could have punted if they wanted to.

 

[Zooropa_NCR]

Just play Sullivan and build an offense around his skill set. Do the thing almost every other college team does.

We don’t do that at Iowa

We do things the Iowa (Kirk) way and we will not under no circumstances change

Look we has < 60 yards of offense in first half

But we scored 20 points in the second!!

Had a chance

Just gotta execute

 

[10kHawk]

At this rate he won’t get the win record for years, we screwed

Chip in all the NIL money. It’s getting wasted anyway.

 

[iowaathletes]

the D sucked pretty bad tonight

 

[BrotherHawkeye]

That pick by Cade was crazy bad. I just don’t think he can throw the ball more than 25 yards with any degree of knowing where it’s going. It was so sad watching Iowa try to score at the end of the game. Every Iowa fan knew it would end something like that.

But to be honest, it was the defense who did a face plant tonight. They could not get a stop. Second and 19 and they give up a 23 yard pass. That was emblematic of the whole night.

 

[DEMGR]

Jake Christiansen

Jake Christensen.

Good comparison, but if I remember correctly, at least Big Jake's terrible short throws were on crossing patterns........ not like Cade on a couple throws tonight's actually rolling out on the same side, no defenders in between, same speed (somewhat), and end up 3 yards off target.

Cade is definitely worse than JC was. But he’s our NIL guy, gotta stick with him.

 

[obfuscating]

the whole country knows Clown U is not the #9 team in the country

At least they are competitive. And they won...

 

[obfuscating]

Cam Miller(Solon 2020 grad) 7/7 72 yds on the final drive for ndsu TD for lead!!
20/27 163yds and 2 TD.

SDSU driving, Gronowski is a heck of a QB as well.

INT by NDSU to seal it.

Congrats to Cam and ndsu, first time beating sdsu in 5 yrs.

Great game between #1 and #2

 

[NI hawk]

6-1: where we should be

4-3: the reality as a result of shitty coaching/decisions

Not all on Cade, but a good share of it is.

 

[doughuddl2]

It's worth it. Not my money. Happy retirement.

 

[obfuscating]

Pay it.

Pay it Beth!!

 

[Garbanzo Joe]

The thing about Iowa is the defense and special teams can't ever miss because if they do there is nothing that is going to happen that will support them let alone bail them out.

 

[jhawkinaz]

* KF has a $30M buyout.

I definitely cannot make it to 2029. Come
On Kirk, for the love of everything holy, have some pride and step away.

 

[amahawk]

Pay it.

Thanks Gary!

 

[Bow.to.the.Narrative]

Sullivan should have gone elsewhere. Poor guy.

He probably will. I wouldn't blame him.

 

[Garbanzo Joe]

Cade is definitely worse than JC was. But he’s our NIL guy, gotta stick with him.

No they don't

 

[Bow.to.the.Narrative]

Petras today, 31-44 357 yds. Petras is better and it’s not even close.

Kirk ruins quarterbacks.

 

[MAXIMUSHAWKEYE]

Kirk is a selfish sob. Time to retire and let the next generation take the over. He has no clue how to evaluate QBs. He hurts the entire team for one player.

 

[Champ_Kind_whammy]

No they don't

There is no "they". It's right there in the contract: "Memememememememememem-wave at the cancer kids-memememememememememe"

 

[Iron Doc]

Wonder where markfromnj is?

Agreed but they bent too much

Correct but let's be honest here it less about the one player and more about his fragile ego.

 

[Tom Paris]

Petras today, 31-44 357 yds. Petras is better and it’s not even close.

In a real offense he’s better. Not in this one.

Exactly, we are paying him no matter what. Find someone cheap the next 5 years who has a brain, won't hire family, and can start an athletic qb with upside. He is trolling us with these gimpy qbs who can neither run or throw.

And his damn son in law is another nepotism bum.

Problem is KF is so damn selfish and he's hanging on to pass Woody Hayes.
Without looking, I bet KF has lost more football games than any HC in Iowa history.

 

[TailgateTom]

Kirk ruins quarterbacks.

I was thinking tonight….in KFs 26 years who have we had that was highly successful?

Banks for a year
Chandler for a year?
Tate for a year
CJB for a year or two?
Stanley for two years?

My memory has faded so that may not be accurate, but at face value 7/26 seasons we’ve had good QB play.

Just posted in another thread but Stanley never really improved either. He wasn't bad just solid. But solid your soph thru senior year hurts the offense. But we can blame Brian for that

Same with Tate—great sophomore year then steady decline after.

 

[mro1978]

I can't remember a time when the defense played that bad. No tackling, no coverage. Just a piss poor overall effort. How in the hell can Iowa not be able to recruit a 2nd corner in the past 3 seasons? Ferentz being ferentz on offense again. The time to pull cade was at the start of the 2nd quarter.
