******Michigan vs Iowa Game Thread******

[hawkeyekid]

Why call a rollout to the left with a right handed QB and have him be so close to the line that he is still pressured.

 

[Heathen Raider]

Tough to win when You have Iowa's Offense Michigan and the Refs against You . Obvious this Officiating Crew got the marching orders and checks from the B1G Office

 

[BubsFinn]

defensive back grabbed Bruce; that was not PI

The refs are looking for a pick play. If there's anything close, it will get flagged.

 

[BBHawk]

Brian is an absolute joke in the red zone

Ffs, LaPorta should have been in the end zone. That's on him.

 

[iahawks10]

4/2 and Brian dials up a 1 yard play

Or was it a 2 yard route just throw one yard because the QB is bad?

 

[uihawk82]

That was not a good series of play calls by Brian. not a good spot by an official which was big.

Not a great route short of the sticks by laporta and a low bad throw by Petras

Just shit all around after a good drive

 

[desihawk]

one could make a kennedy level documentary about the officiating in this game
its not just 4-5 blatantly egregious calls but the sly spots and noncalld on the opponent

 

[BubsFinn]

We have to go after this punt, right?

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Too bad offense didn't show up for the first 2.5 quarters

 

[TheEnigma80]

2006 Florida outback bowl thanks for bringing that up

I could have mentioned the Offsides.... or the 13 Florida Guys on the field lol..... but yeah... this is as glaring of an example of having the fix in as that was.

 

[longliveCS40]

Good job defense...as usual.

 

[BBHawk]

We have to go after this punt, right?

At least field the punt!

 

[uihawk82]

Ffs, LaPorta should have been in the end zone. That's on him.

Well at least past the first down marker

 

[hawk224]

That is 100% on Ferments for employing his special needs offspring.....such an "Iowa" type play.

Are you really that big of an idiot? Do you really think BF called a 1 yard out when they needed 3 yards? Does it even occur to some of you jackwads that the receiver ran his route short? Or that the other receiver would have been open if he hadn’t been held by the defender?

 

[desihawk]

10 juked a michigan player into broken ankle

 

[DrewHawk33]

Or was it a 2 yard route just throw one yard because the QB is bad?

Winner, winner!

 

[Irvin 88]

Someone needs to make a Ferentz Fatigue Is Real t-shirt.

 

[Franisdaman]

11:15 to go

34 Illinois
10 Wisconsin

Next Sat night should be fun

 

[like-woahh]

Throw the ball in the end zone. Too much dinking around. JFC. Another third down run? JFC. Throwing short of the sticks on 4th down? FFS. This is why Brian needs fired and Kirk needs to retire.

And what a phantom PI that was.

I feel like we are watching this the same exact way. Brian sucks at his job, that's not deniable at this point. Kirk needs to retire or let go of infecting the offense with his outdated philosophy. It doesn't matter who the coordinator is, we're going to see zone run, bootlegs, bubble screen, etc... we've seen the same base plays for 20+ years now.

 

[longliveCS40]

That was a risky over the shoulder punt field by Bruce. Yikes.

 

[desihawk]

Well at least past the first down marker

to what end? not like the refs woulda let that stand

 

[HawkRugged17]

Defense does its' job ...

 

[LarryMullenJr.]

I have never seen an officiating crew this bad

And an OC and QB

 

[M3 ME PLEASE]

Let’s huddle every play here

 

[Ignored]

I'm assuming that third down pass was tipped?

 

[BlackNGoldBleeder]

I don’t care how bad the officials are. That last Iowa possession is a microcosm of how stupid and incompetent Kirk and Brian are when it comes to understanding time, score, and strategy.

 

[BBHawk]

That last penalty against Iowa was a killer. It was like it was pre-planned.

 

[navyrules]

Ball needs to be thrown INTO the endzone at least one time on that series from inside the 10.

 

[M3 ME PLEASE]

Michigan is begging to give this game away and it doesn’t matter cause offense and coaching is so incompetent

 

[WaterTower]

Horrendous officiating today.

And I can guarantee everyone that no corrective actions will be taken against this set of refs.

 

[biggreydogs]

Get to see our 2 minute offense. 😂

 

[BlackNGoldBleeder]

Why call a rollout to the left with a right handed QB and have him be so close to the line that he is still pressured.

It is beyond stupid.

 

[Etalicus]

That Dr pepper commercial is Iowa offense the guy throwing the can and the kid flinching at it

 

[BBHawk]

I'm assuming that third down pass was tipped?

Nope

 

[MeetTheFerentzes]

Iowa shouldn't try any deep passes this series.

(I'm trying reverse psychology....)

 

[grayhair81]

The primary receiver was held.

Hey dumbass. Petras didn't look at anyone but 84 and threw it a yard behind the sticks.

 

[Ignored]

Flag didn't matter, didn't get the 1st down anyways.

Was good insurance for them in case we got it, though. No way was that ever a penalty.

 

[NevadaHawk]

pass was shirt and low

What color was the shirt?

 

[Steamboat529529]

I could have mentioned the Offsides.... or the 13 Florida Guys on the field lol..... but yeah... this is as glaring of an example of having the fix in as that was.

This is nowhere near as bad as 2005. Solomon getting his face masked ripped off and getting called for personal foul. Disconcerting signals. Blatant guys from Florida running off late. Greenway offisides at the end. A couple more I’m forgetting. Not even close.

 

[BioHawk]

Ah yes. 4 minutes to go, need two touchdowns, and running the ball really isn't much of an option now. It's a good thing we have Petras.
