*** Official Iowa vs Purdue Game Thread ***

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

I'd like a fake FG in 4th down.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Cripes. Penalty yards

 

[Moral]

Pretty good turnout for a Purdue game.

 

[BioHawk]

A lot to clean up for next week.

 

[QChawks]

Petras touch no bueno

 

[DougFHawkeye]

Don’t you have to get a “hold” of the guy for it to be a hold?

Yep, he just got beat is all.

 

[DrVenkman]

struggling against Purdue without their best offensive player...hahahahahahaha!!!

Your team isn’t even competitive.

We will spank you for 6 in a row.

 

[boxahawks]

Huskers just hate the Big Ten referees. They must be really slow learners.

 

[HawkInArk]

Petras has a TON of work to do. The QB competition should be open, IMO.

 

[BigDogHawkFan]

Penalties by our older players. Absolutely killing us

 

[mthawkeyes]

Don’t you have to get a “hold” of the guy for it to be a hold?

Yeah. That was just a whiff, definitely not a hold.

 

[ICHawk2440]

Stanley 2.0 IDC what anyone says. Better fix it this year

 

[HawkeyeFever62]

Petras has issues overthrowing

Sounds familiar.

 

[luvmyhawks]

Boy, petras accuracy is brutal.

 

[TRHawkeye145]

Was hoping Petras would solve the overthrow problems we saw from Nate. Doesn't look like it so far

 

[HawkeyeInCentralIowa]

Petras needs to get it together. Just make the play you can. Don’t try and do so much extra because that’s how preventable mistakes are made.

 

[BubsFinn]

That wasn't holding.

 

[kylehawks]

Too many penalties but a TD here fixes a lot of issues

 

[TheRealHerky]

Petras doesn’t have it. At least today.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Just don't go backwards.

 

[M3 ME PLEASE]

Nice horseshit holding call

Man when Petras let’s go of the ball you can tell it’s gonna sail out

 

[HawkInArk]

Your team isn’t even competitive.

We will spank you for 6 in a row.

Cool it - we look like a steaming pile of garbage in this first game.

 

[anon_b29nm7v7dwp6r]

Yeah Petras has 0 touch

 

[HawkInArk]

Man when Petras let’s go of the ball you can tell it’s gonna sail out

No doubt. It's pretty bad..

 

[HawkIDrummer]

Boy, petras accuracy is brutal.

He's looked jumpy and jacked up all day, thought he'd settle down

 

[millah_22]

Petras has a TON of work to do. The QB competition should be open, IMO.

I don't think the competitions should be back open. He has made mistakes, but none that have really cost Iowa. It's his first start as a RS SO and he's doing alright.

 

[desihawk]

Just don't go backwards.

easier said than done! hope the line holds up coz qb keeper coming up

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Go for it!

 

[BubsFinn]

Did we rehire Greg Davis?

 

[TRHawkeye145]

Stalled drive....

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

I don't think the competitions should be back open. He has made mistakes, but none that have really cost Iowa. It's his first start as a RS SO and he's doing alright.

This. And his team isn't helping with 85 penalty yards

 

[TheRifleman86]

playing for FG there - on 3rd and 19 it's probably the wise play, but it's brutal to not be able to score TD's

 

[NorthDSMHawk]

JFC, it’s his first start and has done better than most of our other QBs in their opener. Calm down

 

[SansSouci]

Nixon is kinda the mvp of this game.

 

[QChawks]

Duncan $$$

 

[Dargo]

Struggling with a bad Purdue team without their coach, RB, and best receiver.

 

[dirtypool]

Husker fans don't like facts .. they feel they are getting a raw deal in the BIG. They want to go back to the Weak 12 where teams don't play defense. The BIG is too tough for them.

the Big 12 was too tough for them, that's why they came to the Big 10....the big 10 that they thought they would steamroll over. They really want to go back to the big 8.

 

[biggreydogs]

Need 3 more

 

[kylehawks]

Petras has much better arm talent than Nate...I love Nate but he could not have made that throw to Ragani in the 1st half down the seem

 

[QChawks]

As usual, it’s up to defense to win
