****official Iowa St vs Iowa game thread****

our coaches are dumb.. why let the clock run down to 1 second and then run a fake?
 
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.
 
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?
 
Great coaching move.
2 crappy run play calls with Canzieri. Burn clock to 1 second. Then fake field goal attempt in which you have to get TD or you get nothing.

How do they come up with these genius game plans?
 
WHY run up the middle twice, then turn around and run a fake FG? These coaches are worth MILLIONS. Money well spent
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.

2nd and short and we run up the middle for next to nothing, waste a timeout.. then do it again and get stuffed... could have used that 2nd down for a shot to the end zone and if incomplete oh well, still 3rd and short..
 
Hahahahahaha.....give this guy a raise! Maybe we could find some more coaches in the retirement home we stole Davis from! This is the worst offense I have ever seen in 40 years of Iowa football! I miss KO...that is sad!
 
I'm ok with that. It almost worked. Bottom line is, if Iowa can't stop ISU in the second half it doesn't matter if Iowa scores there or not.
 
Stunned as I am, I have to acknowledge that this is the first time that I've seen Iowa try a bunch of stuff to win against ISU. CJ cutting loose, the play calls, crazy as they are. Incredibly, despite all the shit that's happened, this team seems more into it than the last several. Gotta give it to CJ for firing up the squad. Not that means that we win.
 
Well Hawk fans.Do like me and start drinking heavily.If The Hawks manage to win great,if not.Well it's the usual Captain Kirk can't figure out the Clones.
I figured some passion and fire from all the bad things happening in Hawkeyeland this week.Looks like the same ole same ole.
I'll be happy to eat my words.

Every time one tries to give KF the benefit of the doubt, and hope for something better...he just goes bizarre again...

There is no logic to this nonsense coaching...

You are correct, I should have clarified....we ran a goal line up the middle. If we want to do that.... just QB sneak. Once again our staff out smarts itself.....doesn't take much
 
ISU has come to play bigtime. If Iowa doesn't at least try to rattle them a bit, the game's over. So even though KF's crap hasn't worked, it's still keeping us mentally in it.
 
turn Beathard loose on the edge run or pass option. The guy makes plays. Or run it straight forward with 8 in the box. Its worked so well.
 
LOL at any idiot defending that call, that was one of the worst things ive ever seen

Had he gotten lucky and he got IN, i still would have laughed how hilariously dumb and bad that was

If you want to try something like that, dont run the clock down to 1 second. Now watch Iowa lose by 3 points.

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?

I didn't defend the fake dumbo. It's a horrendous call when you need 30+ yards. At the same time, you cannot call timeout earlier and fake it. Anybody who thinks calling timeout earlier was viable is just as dumb as the staff!
