***Official Iowa vs North Texas Game Thread ***

[QChawks]

Tuned in late because was at work. I pieced together that Easley fumbled a ball out the endzone resulting in a turnover. What did Wadley do with the unsportsmanlike conduct? How did it take points off the board and not applied to the kick off?

High stepped into EZ

 

[Rustys Dad]

Refs are motivated.

Agree ... Why don't we just play flag football and give everyone a trophy ...

 

[HawkLogic]

Another weak call.

He did hold,but it was well after the rb was past the hole. He's got to hold smarter.

 

[TJHawkeye]

Refs want lots of face time today.

 

[BubsFinn]

These C-USA refs like their sideline warnings.

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Refs going to make it known they are here today

 

[ANYCHawk]

#umpshow

 

[desihawk]

That was one time wish they'd enforced clock violation

 

[QChawks]

They are blitzing everydown

 

[Rustys Dad]

Sigh .. this game is one of those games you just want to be over ... like pulling off a bandaid

 

[anon_snp6dc585nnj4]

This game was so predictable. It was always going to be underwhelming and we still probably win by 2-3 tds. Once again though we still won't have any answers as to how good the team is.

These average non power 5 games packed between a rival and big B1G game, you knew this was coming.

 

[spiderland]

Big play from D would be nice here.

 

[QChawks]

Haha nice

Just get the ugly W at this point without any injuries.

If we can hold on

 

[And1Hawk]

This is how upsets happen... let a team hang around.

 

[Shafthawk]

Refs love the air time today.

Is this their first time on TV or something?

 

[HawkLogic]

Epi needs to start

Agreed. They need a difference maker on the DL. Right now, they got 4 guys and none of them is a playmaker. Jaleel Johnson was the guy last year. I thought Anthony nelson would step up, but he looks to be neutered.

 

[Urohawk]

High stepped into EZ

Thanks....WTF!

He had two steps that were slightly higher than the rest of them.

 

[And1Hawk]

Get in nickel or dime... stop having Bower run around 5 yards behind receivers

 

[Daggerfoot]

Little girl wearing a Beat Iowa shirt.

Haha

It said beat cancer

 

[HawkNole09]

OL needs to move their feet and open a hole, get off a block and put a hat on a LB

I think Iowa showed grit with their comeback last week.

 

[luvmyhawks]

Hockenson > Fant

I am starting to think so.

 

[mustang_horsepower]

Here is what I thought of the mean green initially...

But now they are looking more like...

 

[Urohawk]

He had two steps that were slightly higher than the rest of them.

So a 14 point swing with the fumble and high stepping.....great

 

[desihawk]

Do we go into the locker room up 3 or down 4, is that the question?

 

[TJHawkeye]

Maybe Butler can accidentally run over a ref here.

 

[HawkGem11]

That is Kirk's MO, just hang around

 

[DavidHawk324]

Quit bitching about overthrows. Fant didn't even touch that ball. Kittle catches that all day.

Fant had 5 yards on the guy. Stanley doesn't need to throw it perfectly in such a case, just float it a bit more.

 

[HawkNole09]

DL looks slow and boring

 

[QChawks]

It said beat cancer

Oh. It was red and looked like an ISU logo.

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Has Epenesa been in today?

 

[Chewback]

High stepped into EZ

Actually high stepped about 15 or 20 yards out which is why the touchdown got called back. If the dumb bastard wants to show that he's more important than the team, maybe he could wait til he's in the end zone next time.

I surprised Ferentz didn't sit him the whole half but maybe decided he couldn't afford to against a powerhouse like North Texas.

 

[desihawk]

That is Kirk's MO, just hang around

True but his son will dishonor him by being a renegade.

 

[TheRealHerky]

That FG would have been good from 55. Kicker has a big leg

 

[GPRHAWK]

These C-USA refs like their sideline warnings.

Conference USA refs are outstanding. Remember the Outback

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Draw was predictable there

 

[QChawks]

That FG would have been good from 55. Kicker has a big leg

He looks really good.

 

[TheRealHerky]

Are these really C-USA refs? If that is true it explains everything.

 

[ANYCHawk]

God general pop has better shanks than that!
