Breaking news: we have 265 yards of offense

 

[VodkaSam]

How did the Defense score 3?

 

[Hawkeyesgonewild]

Black stop

 

[herkhatescy]

Okay, so, what do we attribute the complete 180 on offense to? Lester’s adjustments? Better execution by the players? Both? Something else?

This is the offense we were hoping to see.

Figured out he had to open up the playbook a little more.

divine intervention? I'll admit I've been praying hard.

Cade basically hasn't played in 2 years...

Who's tuned into the radio call?? Is Angerer keeping Dolph on track?

Someone mentioned earlier that Angerer is bad.

 

[Franisdaman]

The Tim Lester Era, baby!

 

[desihawk]

yahya in the backfield! nice

 

[Hawkeyesgonewild]

Great defense stop

 

[Iron Doc]

2 in one game. I don't know if I can take this excitement.

It's the end of the world as we know it.

 

[NevadaHawk]

Iowa D fired up

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

For a seasoned poster, I expected better from you Monkey. But I suppose old age brings delusion. When a player drops an easy catch, they should be criticized. Don't be one of those pretentious posters.

 

[millah_22]

QB hurt on that scramble. yikes.

 

[LarryMullenJr.]

Jay Higgins is a bad, bad man!!

Pat has some young swagger and loves when the defense makes a play. He's adding some spice and life into the radio call.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Looks like a different team.

I feel shocked.gif

 

[BubsFinn]

Cade's throw was perfect. Away from the coverage where only the receiver can catch it.

Yep. We haven't seen that kind of throw from an Iowa QB in quite a while. He anticipated where his receiver would be open and threw it to the right spot. Very impressive throw.

 

[TRHawkeye145]

Iowa D destroying their entire team

 

[desihawk]

Breaking news: we have 265 yards of offense

that is insane. particularly after 20 yards or whatever in the first quarter

[Franisdaman]

Illinois State is wearing down....

hate to see it....

 

[Stormn Norman]

NOW we’re talkin! O & D doing things!

 

[HawkeyeinOmaha]

I hope we didn't hurt any of your boys too bad.

 

[Tom Paris]

And now? This is why it’s not worth bitching and being miserable all the time. It’s ok to be critical but a lot of the people in this thread were taking it to extreme.

Probably guilty here.

 

[MitchLL]

This is what you do to teams like Illinois State from the opening kickoff.

 

[TRHawkeye145]

I feel shocked.gif

Dare I say it.....

 

[JerseyCityHawki]

PEDDLE TO THE METAL… don’t pump the breaks and start pouring it on

 

[BigOHawk]

What was Deacons passing high last year?

 

[YODAHAWKII]

It's the end of the world as we know it.

And I fell fine

 

[NevadaHawk]

Let the blow out begin!

 

[uihawk82]

Gill TD! Nice throw Cade!

Beautiful throw and catch , Cade threw him open as he blew passed those defenders.

 

[BubsFinn]

Oh, he didn't miss blocking that punt by very much. If we keep going after them, we're going to get one.

 

[2D_]

I feel for the Redbirds, their players are dropping like flies.

 

[ButtersHawk]

What was Deacons passing high last year?

I'd like to say it was the same as his weight but we know that's way too damn high

 

[BlIIlken2]

This is the offense we were hoping to see.

I whole heartedly believe the first half of a opening game means jack shit about a team. It’s so hard to go from practice/camp to real game motion.

Having said that, we all were thinking it.

 

[bdcolt45er]

That was a good push.

 

[Hawkeyesgonewild]

First down good run

 

[HawkeyeinOmaha]

It's abundantly clear who our #1 RB is.

 

[BlIIlken2]

wtf happened to graves?!
