Way to be tough out there, defense.
Needed a stop and played like a bunch of wusses.

ball was not secured until foot was on the white..........they are too chicken$hit to make a controversial call and overturn it.
This D reminds me of the Iowa D in 2000. Good enough to get to 3rd down but not good enough to get off the field.
And the defensive struggles continue.
Even when they can get some pressure, they can't finish the play.

So as soon as the ball touches a player it's considered a catch now days? That was not a touchdown at any level. When he truly had control of the ball he was out of bounds
This. Pretty simultaneous catch and foot on the line. These excellent refs made quick work
Agree. Lots of our D linemen getting held as they break free up the middle. I'm surprised Johnson still has a jersey.

The fact of the matter is if Iowa is a real threat to win the west let alone 9 games, relying on shit refs against a doormat in the west does leave much optimism.
The defense put themselves in this position, though. Seems like they can't make stops when needed
Too many soft players out there.
Sadly, he did have control with his right foot dragging. He never lost control as he landed. If he had, no catch.
If it works count on Kirk to immediately move away from it. Guy is mind boggling.
Better give him another extension. Laughable.
These refs put a little wager down I bet. No way can they be that blind...but the Big will do nothing about it
Wth was that King? Lol
Does our staff teach our players to fall down with the ball and pursue defensive players so they can get tackled? Lol

So he maintained control while he was out of bounds. He never had complete control while in bounds. If he juggled the ball and still caught it while he was out of bounds is that a catch in your mind as well?
There was no evidence that he was juggling the ball -- certainly not on video. I wish it weren't the case, but that was a catch. All day.
He caught the ball yes, but not while in bounds
Is it just my Hawkeye bias, or does the officiating go against Iowa a disproportionate amount of the time?
I'm not just talking about this game, and I'm not just talking about this season.

Its games like these you have to wonder about the impartiality of certain officiating crews.
Theyre consistantly missing what everyone else can see plain as day and giving every toss up to one team.
Hard to believe. They know they're on espnU and not a brocast that is organized enough to catch on.

Man, our O line is getting manhandled by every D line outside of ISU.
Can we just take all these drop back throws out of the playbook? CJ is so much better with the quick decision throws and the line can't hold the rush long enough.
Switching back between Iowa and Iowa State. Announcer just said, "Iowa State has a young, aggressive staff" as Iowa State leads #13 Baylor 35 - 21.
