******Official Iowa at Northwestern Game Thread******

[LetsGoHawks83]

Ugh.... Can we return punts like that? Effing field position!

 

[Cougar63]

Why is josey out

 

[BubsFinn]

That's what we're watching. It doesn't matter if you don't get points.

Other than the fact that the team that gets the most points, wins. I know it's a small distinction, but it's an important one.

 

[NorthernHawkeye]

This Iowa team is so painful to watch.

It's like guys are going through the motions. Still traumatized by the Penn State failure.

 

[BubsFinn]

I hate our defense on 3rd and long.

 

[Slappy Pappy]

Apparently it has to be a defensive back

Helps guard against fake punts.

 

[Hawktagonapus]

No one wants to score.

 

[QChawks]

Good stop D

Now if only we could score points.

 

[HawkeyeFever62]

What kind of grandma makes chicken tenders?

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Why is josey out

Shoulder from Illinois.

 

[spiderland]

Time for a big play on O.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Great D. Come on O!

 

[unoHawkeye]

Iowa is moving the ball and thus, winning both TOP and field position battles, which will both help later on.

Those saying "0 points, that's all that matters," are wrong

 

[markfromj]

0 points is all that matters, dude

True. But it's a long game. Things work in the fourth quarter because of things tried in the first.

 

[BubsFinn]

What kind of grandma makes chicken tenders?

A fictional one.

I wouldn't say we're winning the field position battle. We keep starting inside our own 15.

 

[Blackleaf40]

I guess passing was TOO effective.

 

[Hawktagonapus]

That was there.

Haha, let me guess you think time of possession is important too.

 

[HawkeyeFever62]

A deep pass bullet that never had a chance .

 

[hawkeye bb n fb fan]

Haha could've seen that coming. Another deep pass miss

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Come on... Let's get some throws going! TE!

 

[QChawks]

great pentalty guys

 

[hwks4ever]

Ok, im already sick of hearing about paddy fisher

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Yes. Delay of game. That's what we need.

 

[NorthernHawkeye]

Stanley keeps missing open guys. Horrible.

 

[hawkeye bb n fb fan]

Another overthrow, JFC

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Geez Stanley. Take some heat off that!

 

[takai]

Stanley is looking like garbage. Good lord.

 

[NorthDSMHawk]

Our offense sucks.

 

[QChawks]

omg Staley.

Can our backup throw a deep ball?

 

[BubsFinn]

Well, it went past the sticks, so that's a plus.

 

[unoHawkeye]

Haha, let me guess you think time of possession is important too.

I said as much in my post, so great guesswork

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Now our Offense looks crappy

 

[brewhawk23]

Stanley cant hit the broad side of a barn. Whatta waste.
Other interesting thing is our punter hits a great punt and he gets benched. Interesting....

 

[takai]

omg Staley.

Can our backup throw a deep ball?

Weigers time to shine?

 

[spiderland]

First team to 2 wins...

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Well, it went past the sticks, so that's a plus.

Haha that's what I said!

 

[millah_22]

 

[HawkeyeFever62]

Stanley just throws fastballs.

 

[QChawks]

I said as much in my post, so great guesswork

Well it’s a worthless stat.

The goal is to score points whatever means nessesary. Offense, defense or special teams.
