*****The Official Iowa vs Illinois State Game Thread*****

[MitchLL]

He literally threw into Colby's helmet??????

 

[BubsFinn]

At least Cade can run.

kinda.

 

[biggreydogs]

Cade hates his receivers.

That’s Iowa

 

[TailgateTom]

 

[DTP2]

Is this hell? No. It is Iowa's offense.

 

[ExcellentBread]

Offense moves ball. Losers on this thread still find reasons to complain.

 

[Bank of Hawk]

Cade threw the ball directly into Colby’s helmet. Is he high?

 

[2D_]

If we want any momentum in the second half, we have to score a TD here.

He literally threw into Colby's helmet??????

almost would have been better if Colby got run over again.

 

[desihawk]

Whew! Batted ball almost a turnover.

i thin hit back of oline helmet. red zone passing could be tough with a short qb

 

[hawkirugged17]

 

[DEMGR]

Missed penalty against Iowa. Hit an O-lineman first, correct? Not sure how this crew cut us some slack!

 

[BubsFinn]

So no one on this staff knows how to use timeouts. That's comforting.

 

[biggreydogs]

Need to get conservative so we can kick FG.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Moulton is kind of garbage

Kay....

Dude wtf? This offense is a clown show- even on this drive managed to almost F it up. Will end up with a FG anyway

 

[BobSanders_33]

Whew! Batted ball almost a turnover.

Wasn’t batted. Just threw straight into the back of an OL’s head. Don’t see that too often.

 

[desihawk]

i assume we are milking clock for strategic reasons

 

[Tom Paris]

Why effing run it thrre?!?! 2nd long is STILL a running down for the Iowa offense. Sooooo stupid.

 

[millah_22]

So no one on this staff knows how to use timeouts. That's comforting.

we got a whole minute and we're inside the 10.

 

[Chishawk1425]

Absolutely pitiful

 

[NevadaHawk]

Please, some how, some way, score a TD

 

[JerseyCityHawki]

Are you watching the same game?

What makes you believe this offense can move the ball on a top 25 Big Ten opponent?

Did I say that?

 

[Bank of Hawk]

stones for hands

 

[MitchLL]

EMBARRASSING

 

[BubsFinn]

You've got to catch that. It wasn't a perfect throw and it wasn't a great route, but you still have to catch that f---ing ball.

 

[HawkeyeinOmaha]

6-0. That's game.

 

[longliveCS40]

The good news is that 6 points may be an insurmountable lead.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Why throw that ball?

......like there's so many things f***ing wrong with that pass selection, I'm not even gonna list them all. It's just baffling.

 

[hawkirugged17]

3rd down ... we will take the 3! Who had the under?

 

[NevadaHawk]

Gill with some tough catches

I like Gill

 

[2D_]

Kay....

How'd that wide open catch go, buddy?

 

[giveitall]

Yay, yay, yah 6 pts total. This offense couldn't move the ball against a 1A iowa high school football team.

 

[Bierhalter]

Offense moves ball. Losers on this thread still find reasons to complain.

go participate in one of the other 5 Midwestern game threads you have open right now

 

[desihawk]

not wide open but that shoudlve been a td. needed a better throw.

 

[spiderland]

Why wouldn’t you want to be a placekicker or a punter at Iowa?

 

[TRHawkeye145]

I guess I would rather improve as the game goes instead of like last year have some quick scores and suck the rest of game

 

[BubsFinn]

we got a whole minute and we're inside the 10.

That would matter if we weren't playing for the field goal.

 

[bdcolt45er]

TBH it might be some of that, plus Ferentz at home, plus top two WRs out, plus two RBs suspended first half.

That being said, only 3 points is still very disappointing.

Iowa hasn't scored a TD is 3 games worth of quarters.

 

[desihawk]

now please don't give up a long TD just before the half. i've seen this happen before.
