****Offficial Granddaddy of them all Iowa vs. Stanford Rosebowl game thread****

[ANYCHawk]

We need new coordinators. No way does a Norm Parker defense allow something like this to happen. He may not have won us the game, but Norm would have at least had us in position to win it in the 4th.

I know its hard for many to remember (for whatever reason) but norm was on the wrong end of some blowouts as well.

 

[laidbackdude2011]

Well at least it wasn't just us. MSU and NW also got hosed

 

[TRHawkeye145]

Do you think Brent has pictures of AJs gf and McCaffrey on his bedroom wall?

 

[IronFist1776]

That missed extra point is going to haunt the Hawkeyes.

LMAO!!! for the laugh....'cuz I feel like I should be crying.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Ummm... holding down field much?

 

[HawkLogic]

you get zero pressure from your front 4 and so you have to go Raider and get gnashed by the run. Iowa needs a better DL. Jaleel is decent, need 3 more.

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Desmond King should probably stay, based on what I've seen late in the year.

 

[Sett1997]

McCaffrey looks like he wears a man bun off the field.

 

[Filthy_Reggie]

I still don't understand how Iowa can be/look this unprepared for a bowl game two years in a row

maybe because it has a vastly overpaid, mediocre coach?

 

[600600]

Wow I guess getting killed in a bowl game, and playing no one all year while begging to be recognized, does not keep you from being killed in a bowl game the next year.

 

[revkev73]

Coaches most often revert to what was...after a "conversion"...

How is that working for you, coach?

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Well. I don't think we will win this.

 

[laidbackdude2011]

maybe because it has a vastly overpaid, mediocre coach?

And with the bonuses this year, will be paid even more

 

[TRHawkeye145]

Well shit i guess Stanford is going to win this...

 

[Senor Martinez]

I know its hard for many to remember (for whatever reason) but norm was on the wrong end of some blowouts as well.

Not counting the first 2 years when KF was rebuilding the program, name ONE anywhere close to as embarrassing as this. Make sure it's a game when Norm was on the sideline and not in the hospital (i.e., Arizona State in 2004). I'll hang up and listen.

 

[moral_victory]

Gents it is comeback time.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Yes! Big play to turn it ALL around!

 

[laidbackdude2011]

Next moral victory. Deny McCaffrey the second record. Lmao

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Time to unleash the SECRET play!

 

[spiderland]

Just evened the turnover battle...

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Jesse Palmer has really been Captain Obvious as of lately

 

[Sett1997]

We are winning the second half. Major freaking no show in the first. Totally unprepared.

 

[Michael1969]

maybe hold them without a TD in the 2nd half.

 

[hawkeye54545]

It really pisses me off I don't even hate the Stanford players. I wish they would dance around like thugs or showboat so I can talk some trash from the safety of behind my computer.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Can't believe we are going to WIN the Rose Bowl 2nd half!

 

[7thsummitcoach]

It's the 4th qtr. Down 4 TDs. We have the ball...

Now we just need sunglasses.

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Akrum Wadley is the future going forward, his speed is really a difference for the offense

 

[TRHawkeye145]

What's the probability of converting 4 consecutive onside kicks?

 

[Sett1997]

Call the flag now you bags of shit.

 

[hawkeye54545]

You know were getting killed when the announcers talk about how Classy our coach is.

Gold bowl one.

2007 penn state and indiana

 

[HawkLogic]

pass block or I question your manhood

 

[manndingo]

Well at least yer coach didn't get his face gashed open this year and yer KO return man didn't play hot potato with the football this year...that's improvement I guess.

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

WOW, they couldn't have called that earlier when CJB had his helmet ripped off

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Akrum Wadley is the future going forward, his speed is really a difference for the offense

Future should have started today...

 

[moral_victory]

That Ferentz and Ruddock story could have used more McCaffery.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

WOW, they couldn't have called that earlier when CJB had his helmet ripped off

Yep

 

[Sett1997]

Akrum Wadley is the future going forward, his speed is really a difference for the offense

Problem is coaches are probably not aware of this.

 

[CGCy]

At least our mascot isn't a tree.

If it was, it would be a Weeping Willow

 

[yerpHAWK]

Say what you want, but at least the team didn't give up.
