[ANYCHawk]

I will say SM looks much better than last year.

 

[Osiris_99]

I say we go with 4 TE sets

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

My Gawd we picked up a 1st down without getting a penalty!!!! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[NorthDSMHawk]

ISM needs to get in a rhythm here

 

[Typical Situation]

Nice strong hands catch by Smith-Marsette.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

I say we go with 4 TE sets

Eff it, let's go with 5 TEs. Go big or go home.

 

[mustang_horsepower]

Sargent looks good. Shonn Greene-esqe

 

[KujawaFan]

Wtf smith. He is horrible

 

[mill1634]

Safe to say the staff likes Sargent more than Young?

 

[ConvenientParking]

B Smith gotta catch that and not fall away.

 

[ANYCHawk]

Safe to say the staff likes Sargent more than Young?

well he outranks him

 

[Osiris_99]

So much for Brandon Smith's huge hands being an advantage

 

[ConvenientParking]

Weak hold call.

 

[anon_snp6dc585nnj4]

Apparently you have to wear red and white to block.

 

[desihawk]

These refs aren't giving me the warm fuzzies.

 

[Typical Situation]

Another damn holding penalty negates a good play...sloppy...

 

[ANYCHawk]

Weak hold call.

make up call

 

[desihawk]

These refs aren't giving me the warm fuzzies.

I take that back. They are alright.

 

[ANYCHawk]

Good idea guys let's all run into each other.

 

[ConvenientParking]

Not good Nate. Get it out of there.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Sigh, the tradition of turning Iowa QBs with promise into pocket statues continues........

 

[Typical Situation]

Thank goodness Hock came to play today.

 

[takai]

I like this Sargent guy

 

[mill1634]

Horrible...needed a bootleg there.

 

[DougFHawkeye]

slow developing running play on 4th and 1 BAU

 

[SoDakHawk]

This team looks like warmed over garbage. Getting pushed around by NIU.

 

[ConvenientParking]

GDamn.

 

[ANYCHawk]

I like this Sargent guy

A Corporal gets the first down there

 

[Nick Ma]

Nice call Brian. Line everyone up 6 yards from the ball and run into the humanity you created.

 

[Forgery5]

Truly pathetic offense. Why is this team not ready to play?!

 

[ANYCHawk]

Nice call Brian. Line everyone up 6 yards from the ball and run into the humanity you created.

To be fair, pretty sure the play call isn't for 9 guys to miss blocks

 

[takai]

I feel like any play would've been better than just punching it down the middle

 

[Osiris_99]

Wow 4 NIU guys could have stopped that 4 and 1. Did we forget how to block?

 

[brewhawk23]

Damn, everyone got blown up on that 4th down play.

 

[KujawaFan]

Nice tackle Welch

 

[ConvenientParking]

Whiff.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Nice call Brian. Line everyone up 6 yards from the ball and run into the humanity you created.

Maybe use one of those newfangled timeout thingies to come up with a better play.....

 

[DougFHawkeye]

Maybe use one of those newfangled timeout thingies to come up with a better play.....

You can do that?

 

[BubsFinn]

No one leaves guys wide open in the middle of the field on third down like we do.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

You can do that?

I think that's the rule now....
