*******Iowa vs UCLA Game Thread*******

[DirtyJohns97]

This is gonna be such a bad loss

Every year, it’s two steps forward and one step back

If we took one more step back we could create a classic animated duet with Paula Abdul

 

[2D_]

Hawks learning the hard way about the new age of college football. So many things need to change.

 

[CookyMonster]

I usually never get this HOT 🥵 and angry during a game but to watch them piss down their leg against a POS UCLA team after a classic beatdown of Wis makes me just absolutely livid… just a all out shit show and this game could be even worse … they simply look lost

You're livid at this point? We've already lost 3 games. We've saw this exact game less than a month ago. The isu game was the gut puncher.

 

[HawkMachine]

So you’re saying this was a 1-5 team?

Look at their schedule.

Doesn’t get much harder.

Records can be deceiving, I knew this would be difficult.

 

[Hawky42]

hopefully our guys get verbally slapped in the locker room

 

[Garbanzo Joe]

Schulte has pretty much sucked his entire career outside a few random plays.

Doesn't seem to have a very high football IQ.

Tells you how bad the backup must be.

Shut your mouth! Yeah you are right. I can't win in this one.

 

[HawkBall23]

The moment that defined the defensive effort in the first half when Jackson and Lee had the UCLA RB for an easy double-team tackle, but he somehow kept his feet and gained a few more yards out of it.

Jackson had him from behind and up high, while Lee came in and should have wrapped up his legs.

Nope. They just provided a slight bump in the road for him.

Just an unfrickingreal bad combined tackling effort.

When have you ever played at the Rose Bowl?

Its projection

 

[jonesy5960]

So I was concerned that this was a bad matchup for Iowa, but to see the run defense get absolutely shredded by the worst rushing offense in FBS is shocking.

 

[Garbanzo Joe]

I need Iowa to win because tomorrow's hurt is going to be off the charts, Come on Hawks1

Damn straight I need likes

 

[Champ_Kind_whammy]

Recruits look at this game and say "do i really want to play at Iowa?"

If you're an 8-man football white kid you do. Pretty much guaranteed to be a starter.

 

[Hawk_4shur]

Good Lord that was ugly. Didn't look like an Iowa defense at all.

However, it did look like an Iowa offense.

Just gruesome.

 

[Hawky42]

 

[Garbanzo Joe]

what’s on tomorrow?

The mother of all hangovers. Get on board

 

[desihawk]

Enjoy your evening fellas, I’m going to bed.

pic? she must be hot

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Hawks have no answer on either side of the ball. Outplayed in every way. This is the reality of the new Big Ten. Hawks just won't have it some weeks.

And UCLA is not good and destroying us.

 

[ozzie8]

I wonder if that pork tenderloin trailer from Dewitt is outside the Rose Bowl entrance, like in 2016. Great loins. Csb. Anyway back to the game…..

 

[ButtersHawk]

Schulte has pretty much sucked his entire career outside a few random plays.

I honestly just think PP has a hard on for white walk ons at FS. Now that's not a bad thing but Schulte is the definitely worst safety we've had since Tanner Miller.

 

[Gonzo Bloor]

Schulte has pretty much sucked his entire career outside a few random plays.

Tells you how bad the backup must be.

Yeah we can't build our D backfield around nice players from CR Xavier. He's completely outmatched against offenses with actual athletes. That shoulder attempt to stop the UCLA guy was pathetic.

I’ve got some mushrooms on board making everything nice

 

[WestIAHawk]

Good thing this game doesn't mean anything I might be upset if it did

Usually if it doesn't mean anything Iowa rolls. If it means something they choke.

 

[kwik44]

Hawks learning the hard way about the new age of college football. So many things need to change.

Like the 9 times zones teams travel each and every week? How about eliminate the dumb Friday games in which only a few non blue bloods have to subscribe to?

Not an excuse by any means, just some venting of the dumb direction the sport has taken.

 

[Garbanzo Joe]

Need the Hawkeyes to play some football this half.

 

[HawkBall23]

Not only that. I will bet your right testicle as well!

I bet everyone's - but my own - testicles on it.

Ya'll better pull hard for a Hawk win tonight, or its your balls boys.

 

[Jimmy McGill]

We are going to lose by 3 scores if the offense doesnt get it together

 

[HerkysDad]

Our only hope is to bring in the Detroit Lions offense.

 

[ClarindaA's]

UCLA is good. Look at their losses. Their schedule has been brutal

 

[bdcolt45er]

So you’re saying this was a 1-5 team? Holy hell, what an embarrassing 1st half performance by Iowa.

They have played 3 top 10 teams and 1 top 15. I expected Iowa to win but I didn't expect it to be easy. I am absolutely shocked that they are running it on us. I am not surprised that we are struggling to run. I am not surprised that they are pressuring the QB. They are a chaos team defensively.

Defense has to play better. This is an awful rushing team. They average less than 3yds per rush and are over 6 yd per rush in this game.

 

[desihawk]

Hawks have been a 2nd half team (minus the clowns).... so hoping we see that tonight

it happened once so maybe offense scores a few points. but what about the slutty defense who’s giving it up from all ends

 

[MitchLL]

I have a super crazy idea that may just work. Instead of alternating snaps for Entringer and Nwankpa lets do it with Entringer and Schulte. And only give Schulte one more snap for the game

Yep...Schulte is UNI level talent.

I’ve got some mushrooms on board making everything nice

OP's mom is on board my mushroom

 

[DirtyJohns97]

The OL is getting destroyed on the interior. Need play action or toss plays on 1st down.

 

[Kraven Moorehead]

Castro might be worst pass defender ever…yet.

 

[Champ_Kind_whammy]

Tells you how bad the backup must be.

25 yrs and you still haven't figured it out.

 

[luvmyhawks]

This is gonna be such a bad loss

Every year, it’s two steps forward and one step back

Well, usually. Unfortunately thus year it is 2 steps forward 2 steps back.

 

[DewHawk]

This is gonna be such a bad loss

Every year, it’s two steps forward and one step back

not seeing the two steps forward under Ferentz

 

[obfuscating]

what’s on tomorrow?

Outside of UI vs UM, not much

 

[desihawk]

I’ve got some mushrooms on board making everything nice

you are in bed with @TailgateTom ?

 

[DEMGR]

Need a spark. If our D can't get them to punt, you have to get Wetjen involved in the offense!

 

[HawkLogic]

Wisconsin looked like garbage talent so we got a little too excited. UCLA has some athletes and better QB. Flying to West Coast has often been a disaster so I was expecting a tossup.. It is worse becuause We are actually getting dominated, if not for getting a little lucky to force 3 turnovers. Anyway, this team is not playoff callber talent. Most disappointing thing is seeing KJ get shutdown. I really thought we were bad asses with our run game. Lester needs to figure it out. Brian wouldn't figure it out, so at least we are better off with new OC.

oh well. On to mediocre bowl, better than Nebraska in all likelihood.
