…was the point of the game after which I knew we would lose. Up until that point, I really thought we would grind out a W. Yeah, Sully had just thrown the bad pick, but the D immediately blew up their swing pass and put them into what should have been an impossible 2nd and 28. We were about to get the ball back, and the running game was generally picking up at least a couple first downs each possession. Once the flag flew on the sideline though, I knew it would be at least 3 for Mizzou. Just inexcusable to bail them out like that.

Kirk had already gone into turtle mode, but being a tie game now it was inevitable he would pucker up even more and try to play for OT. It was all over but the shouting from the moment of that flag on. I’m sure that dickwad Mizzou coach knew he had the game won at that point, too.
 
Whether or not that was the right call on Craig (but given to Schulte by the refs), Iowa was gifted twice on both the roughing the passer calls on Mizzou.

Neither was especially flag worthy, but the 2nd was especially weak.

Honestly felt Sullivan bought both calls with acting, imo.


Just saying that Iowa wasn't the only one screwed by calls or non-calls in the game today.
