Rewatched Purdue first half.......

Nothing strange about it. You don't think 'truth' or fact should be debated? And we wonder why this country is full of a bunch of uninformed idiots that support people that coin terms like 'alternate facts'. LOL. People come on here and speak in hyperbole and misinformation and when someone points it out, that is strange to you. Hmmm......

You are truly too dumb to have a conversation with. Not only have I provided the times and the video and the corrected verbage anyone with half a brain can listen and watch and see you are a fool. You have now resorted to the lowest of the low which is name calling with no facts. Again I provided everything you need to see it. Go hang out with Kilroy muskie you two are about the same speed.

Again, I have owned you the last 3 days and made you look like a fool. Keep talking and posting it will only improve my stats.
Did Milen say 'they drew up a poopy play' or not? Address the question sweety. His comment had nothing to do with drawing up a poopy play, you just flat out LIED. You haven't done anything except lie and this is just one of many, many examples. And we can go back and look at who started the name calling if you'd like. It wasn't me, but according to you, I 'resorted' to that...which is another lie. You won't look, because you know you are nothing but a loser and a liar. I deal with people like you everyday. Most of them are in middle school and are female.

What does ANTIFA have to do with my statement? Thanks for chiming in with that idiot comment, lol. I would expect nothing less of you Joel. If you don't believe in 'alternate facts', you are ANTIFA? Got it, lol.
So we can assume you are a white supremacist and a Nazi, correct?
 
I said to my friend at halftime after the terrible clock management, "We are a 6-4 football team, what do we have to lose by throwing downfield." If we were 10-0, 9-1, or even 8-2, then I understand sometimes being conservative. Only 2 wins separated us from Purdue, and they said what the hell lets throw downfield a bunch and take chances.

It reminded me of the 2012 game vs nebby. 4th quarter, down by less than a TD, not much time left and neither team had been able to move the ball much all day. We were on nebby's 32 yard line (or thereabouts). Kirk elects to punt. I'm thinking "We literally have nothing to lose except possibly to lose the game by 7 more points. Bowl game is out of the picture, we're behind and, even in the off chance we get the ball back, we're highly unlikely to get this close again. Plus, best case is a 25-30 yard net on the punt.". Punting in that situation was an absolute white flag and pissed me off as much as any decision Kirk's made, even though the implications for the season were minimal. It was just a really stupid, stupid move. Kirk's a smart guy, but sure makes some head-scratcher decisions sometimes.

If you don't get a nice gain on first down, if you don't get the first down, you are giving the ball back with good field position and too much time on the clock. Sound strategy. Iowa was leading at the time and most teams don't go into a '2 minute drill' with a lead, deep in their own territory.
I am not sure Iowa has a 2 minute offense. We had ZERO urgency with our last possession.
 
Muskie, I have no idea who you are responding to, as I must have them on ignore. The ignore feature is awesome, and I suggest you use it. :)

Iowa was down 7-3 with 3:37 left in the 2nd quarter when they punted from the Nebraska 31 on a 4th and 13 play. Wienke with the touchback for a net 11 yard punt.

Iowa forced a 3 and out, then got off a Mike Meyer 42 yard FG attempt to end the half that missed.

No punts in the 2nd half match your described circumstances.

What would I be kidding about? It's not the two of us that think that way, I assure you. Very few coaches at any level would have gone into a 2 minute drill in that situation and almost no one goes into a 2 minute drill to increase it's lead.
The ones who know there are two halves in a football game do. Kirk himself said wind was a factor in the game. If that’s true, why the hell would you not capitalize on it every chance you got?

When you learn how quotations work I will attempt to have a reasonable conversation with you. Notice the quote, his direct words, and what you qouted are different? You quoted my description of the play as if Matt Milan said it when I had already given you the direct quote. You are not very bright.

Nice try sweety. Just talking in circles again. You lied, and still have not provided any evidence otherwise. Stick to roll playing in your medieval FANTASY realm (like your avatar) and leave the 'truth' and football to us. I'll have Paul Rudd check on you. We'll leave the boo thing alone right now, since you won't address your lie there and just talk about your lies about Matt Millen comments.
You originally said, and I quote, "the announcer said, that's just bad coaching". When called out on it, you said, "I know he said it, I'll have to find it". After called out again, you come back with (and again I quote), "that is on the coaches" and said it was in reference to a poopy play call. The announcer never said a WORD about it being a bad play call, he referred to a linemen blowing his responsibility. You are a freakin liar. Plain and simple.
You're a COMPLETE idiot. That's a compliment as I think most on here are incomplete idiots. And your anonymous site name is really lame, so from now on, you are just Augie to me (after the main character from 'Role Models'). That's a great unisex name for you, since you pretend you're a man, but you behave like a female, are a liar, and know absolutely NOTHING about football outside of a video game and fantasy football. Be a man for once in your life and take responsibility for your ignorant statements and flat out lies. You'll feel so much better about yourself and maybe, just maybe, someone on here will respect you.

I've already made 2 idiots put ME on ignore. It's more fun that way, lol.

You expect these 'heroes' to deal in facts? Lol. The biggest talkers on hear just make s**t up as they go.

You can talk all you want I have provided the time and video evidence. You are a fool and continue to dig a deeper hole. You, not I, were proven to be a liar with the email thing. Again if your not smart enough to watch the video at the times I provided all your doing is talking. All that other stuff is a betas attempt at getting under my skin and honestly your not smart enough to insult me. Anyone with a brain can read through here and see your a dunce. The people who are not smart enough to see it, don't matter. Your a little beta boy and I hope your name calling makes you feel tough. Some of us were born confident and don't need name callingnjust facts. I'm going to let you in on a little law school thing. If the facts are on your side pound facts( like in have by providing the video and times) if the law is on your side pound the law, (irrelevant in this situation) if you don't have the facts and don't have the law, pound the table. (That's what your doing) keep swinging though muskie, I can feel it, today MIGHT be the day you are right about something. Hey 1/4 wouldn't be horrible.
 
You're kidding right? 1:43 isn't enough time for Iowa to score with the wind at our back and 3 timeouts...and if things don't go right, and we have to punt, suddenly Purdue is going to turn into Alabama and go 60-80 against the wind to score? You and Kirk are over thinking this way too much.


Agreed, they should have been way more aggressive. However, if they did have to punt the ball would have probably only traveled 20 yards with the win because Kirk can't find a single decent punter on his team or even a student at school who can do better than the guy he's using. Hell, Iowa has a soccer team, right? Shoot, go to the women's soccer team if you have to do that because there's no way that guy is better at punting than the rest of the student body at Iowa. It's insane. The putrid punting has cost Iowa almost as much as the horrible offense. I can almost understand Kirk's reticence to go hurry-up in that situation--even with the wind. But how the hell has Kirk failed to find a decent punter going into the 12th game of the season? It's absurd.

Muskie5, you got owned and are too small a man to admit it.

Nobody has ever proven @Muskie5 wrong about anything according to @Muskie5 so you're all wasting your time.

Really though, you take yourself way too seriously. @Wasnt-drunk-didnt-troll actually contributed some interesting information to this thread, including his/her post over Iowa's offense and defense historically under KF, but you are so engrossed in either defending Ferentz or stroking your ego (likely some combination of the two) while trying to prove them wrong (which is a bit odd because they already conceded that they were wrong about Millen's quote, but you keep bringing it up anyways) that actual discussion in this thread (which was otherwise pretty interesting) has been halted.
 
But back to the discussion
I said to my friend at halftime after the terrible clock management, "We are a 6-4 football team, what do we have to lose by throwing downfield." If we were 10-0, 9-1, or even 8-2, then I understand sometimes being conservative. Only 2 wins separated us from Purdue, and they said what the hell lets throw downfield a bunch and take chances.
I thought that this was an interesting post. While it was a breezy day and we've struggled to throw downfield all year anyways, so maybe that wasn't a viable option, I think you still bring up an interesting point:

We were 6-4 going into this game. What did we have to lose by trying to score at the end of the first half? In the absolute worst case scenario, we turn the ball over or have to punt, Purdue scores, and we go to halftime down by 5. Worst case scenario. And if we can't outscore effing Purdue by 5 points in the second half, we deserve to lose anyways, which we did. At the end of the day, we were playing for a bowl game that was slightly more relevant (but still irrelevant) than one we'd play in if we lose. Be a little aggressive. Let the players have some fun, and give the fans who travel and pay good money to support the program something worth cheering for. It's pretty sad that we are even having to discuss whether or not we did the right thing by trying to protect a 2 point lead against, again, effing Purdue.

There is nothing interesting about lies, 'alternative facts', and hyperbole, which is all a bunch of you post. It dumbs down the weak minded and adds nothing to 'society'. We see it everywhere; from Facebook, cable news, message boards, etc. Want to see the studies on how 'dumb' this country is becoming? People don't even attempt to think rationally and/or for themselves much anymore, as it apparently takes too much time and effort in today's world. They just believe all the garbage they hear in soundbites from the supposed 'news', memes from facebook, and posts from anonymous clowns on message boards, etc. It will get worse before it gets better. Yes, I take this 'trend' seriously and resist it.

I tried to give you 'facts' that coaches and administrators don't care about stats, so what is the point of listing them? I gave numerous examples of the best coaches yesterday and today stating as much. I'll say it again, stats were only started for Bookies and gamblers as a base line to setting odds and guessing spreads. Now bored fans get obsessed with them (stats) and how many 'stars' recruits have. You and your brethren can rant and rave all you would like about them, but it doesn't help or change anything. Do any of you actually enjoy football and the Hawkeyes? Do you enjoy anything?

I appreciate you trying to be a voice of reason here uno but it's very apparent this guy is a bitter little dude. ( the first of 3 things he was proven wrong about was now 4 or 5 days ago and he hasn't let it go). FWIW my name is Travis Barnhart I graduated from Waukee in 04 and went on to be a 4 year starter/letter winner at Nebraska Wesleyan (soccer) and then got my M.A.C from what was then Doane college. To put it simply regarding muskie: I have been called worse by better.
