Welp…
Great location for a bowl game. You can not top Broadway. Hawk fans represented well. Out on the street it seemed we out numbered 2-1. However, inside the stadium I’d say Misery 55-45.
Game thoughts-
I liked what I saw on the two or three opening drives. I thought Buie took a step forward. I don’t recall him in the second half. Was he hurt? Patterson and Moulton had nice games.
Obviously the late hit was crushing. A drive or two before- Gill dropped an easy third down catch killing a drive. Both were huge points in the game.
Was Gills catch that lead to fourth down debacle close to being reviewed?
To me outside of QB- Iowa needs pass rushers and secondary help. I’m not sure Iowa has a full complement of answers in that group next year.
Overall this was a 50/50 team all year. Never consitent. For a team that returned 8 starters on defense, to me at least that was the biggest disappointment of the season.
Hopefully the portal brings help and a full complete off season with Lester moves the offense forward.
