Must be a law, you can't blitz at iowa

Well when you put LB's on WR you can't blitz. You have to have help over the top, just in case.

Iowa coaches never make adjustments and this one was a prime example of our poor our coaching staff is at making adjustments.
 
I think the coaching staff felt sorry for the Stick kid at halftime and didn't want to risk hurting him anymore...
 
The Bison did a great job with down and distance. It was Iowa's poor run D and getting out muscled up front that caused this. They put Iowa in a tough situation because you don't want to blitz your LBs on a run play and open up the third level if the RB pops through the hole.
 
Alright, BLITZ DAMN IT!!!!!!!!
OK. Now I get it. Yeah, lets give it a shot every now and again. I don't know that it would have made much of a difference in this particular game, but there is such a thing as making a tackle behind the line of scrimmage while blitzing, even when they run the ball.

And perhaps it might make the other Staff wonder if a blitz might be coming .................... nah, that would make it too hard for Kirk to be pals after the game.
 
there was a period of years when we lost a few games due to the inability to get 1 first down late in a game w/ a tight lead.

same thing today. 1 first down.
