Man am I glad they ran the clock all the way down before trying that fake.
Absolutely stunned at the end of half play calling.Illogical coaching. Take the points if your going to run the clock down to 1. Our coach has more confidence faking field goals then in his offense.
If that resulted in a TD you would be calling it a ballsy play
I think it helped the surprise factor. Not trolling or making excuses, I thought it was smart. If the play gets blown up, the ball isn't in ISU's hands. Plus, you don't think it's coming with that 1 second left.our coaches are dumb.. why let the clock run down to 1 second and then run a fake?
Do you think a fake is going to work if Iowa calls timeout earlier? You might be dumber than the staff
The problem isn't that Iowa ran the ball on 2nd and 3rd down. The problem is that it should have been out of gun with a 2x2 or 3x1 to spread them out and force them to defend against the shot at the endzone. Trying to run in the phone booth there was the mistake.WHY run up the middle twice, then turn around and run a fake FG? These coaches are worth MILLIONS. Money well spent
Ferentz has completely lost his mind.
Well, he did go 30-35, just not 35-40.Iowa leaving F'ING points on the field in a game they can't afford to. If you're going to play it so conservative. Take the points!!! That FAKE was a moronic play call at that point. What are the odds Koehn goes 30-35 yards?
At least take 2 shots at the end zone if you want a td.
That whole sequence was just bafflingAbsolutely stunned at the end of half play calling.

You're a MORON. You're asking the kicker to run it 30 yards in, with 1 second left, and you're defending the fake there?
