*****Official Northwestern @ IOWA Game Thread*****

It's time that we did what the directional schools do to us. Long drive. TD. Onside kick. TD. Onside kick again. FG with 00:00.
 
Meanwhile Barta..

Scheme is predictable. OL is hot garbage. No BIG quality WRs. Suspect OLB play. Piss poor Safety play. Bad in game coaching.

We went right back to becoming predictable, when our defense was having success in the second qtr, we were in a Nickel package most of the time, now we go back to a standard 4-3 cover 2 and they pick us apart. I know we aren't going to change schemes mid-season but I'm just amazed our coaches learn nothing from all this crap. We are predictable and easy to scout. We've all noticed that once the coaches open it up on both sides we have success. I don't like losing but losing the same way to teams with worse records is just not acceptable.
 
The post was in favor of a 6-6 coach over Ferentz.

But I'm settling for mediocrity? You people are morons and apparently aren't satisfied with going to Rose Bowls. You will never be happy.
Once every 30 years. Lol
You're the moron.
 
Well, to be fair, they torched us for a TD on a blitz just then.

We're just not good on D. If we play base D, they drive it down our throats on 10+ plays. If we blitz, they burn us for a quick score.

Imagine our D without King shutting down one side of the field!

It was not a blitz...
 
Awesome. Pay more for a coach than most coaches who've been to multiple good bowls...only happened coz of a weak schedule...get blown out on New Year's Day...look like shit in the years before and after that year...and yet be called a great coach. No...not settling at all

I don't pay his salary.

But I've enjoyed watching his football teams.
 
Super. They finally make a call -- too obvious not to call, although with this crew, maybe not -- but it doesn't count, anyway. Wouldn't want to make a call against NW that actually penalizes them.
 
Good. You've got this for another ten years.
And each time you buy Iowa gear, you pay his salary

No. I support the University of Iowa every time I buy gear. I believe their budget decisions are appropriate based on how resources have been allocated.

The athletic department continues to be very profitable and update their facilities as you would expect with a coach at that salary.

D hasn't stopped much of anything all day. What are the chances they can actually make a play now?
nw should continue to run outside. No containment yet, not likely to see them figure it out now.
 
Up tempo offense was working great. Go into half and abandon it? Seems legit.
Exactly, I do not understand this. It only shows up when they are behind. So the players can play to win cause we see it. They get ahead and somebody puts the brakes on. Which coach is responsible for putting on the brakes on offense? Ferentz or Davis?
