1 word: Turnovers!!! Have to stop that crap! Oh, and Rex will be playing!

I can tell you this much, when N was backed up into their own endzone and with the possibility of punting into the wind to give Iowa great field position, could have been a whole different game without the 2 tough runs in a row by Burkhead. I think people forget just how tough and hard he runs and, in a game like today, made all of the difference in the world. ESPN gave him much needed love today! GO BIG RED!!!

If you were wearing that black knee brace you would be walking around with a slight limp too...btw, he hates that thing!

At last! Go Big Rex and Go Big Red!!!

He will play at the next level...as far as the heisman, let's wait and see.

How has Martinez improved dramtically since year one? His passing numbers are worse than last year and he is not the explosive running threat that he was last year. I don't know how anyone can think this team will get to the next level with him under center.. Won't happen. Amen! We need a quarterback period

I think everyone is forgetting that Wiskey has the better quarterback and makes defenses respect the passing game. Therefore, defenses stacked the line in every game this year which makes yards hard to come by. That to me would be the main reason for Burkheads "lesser" stats. Give us Wilson and it would be a whole different ball game.

Rex doesn't show up on lists....lists show up on Rex

Sorry I'm half Texan and Half Redneck...so I can't figure out this Quote, Multiquote, report, and well ok

I like that call against this kind of defense with Burkhead. Burkhead is great at reading the D and making the right cut, even if we get a small push. The younger guys only run it well right now if there's a really big hole for them to see, and against better defenses, you're right, it's been proving less effective as the season goes on and teams are ready for it. But it worked fine today against Iowa. THIS!!! I like that call against this kind of defense with Burkhead. Burkhead is great at reading the D and making the right cut, even if we get a small push.

You mean you like the cutsie tutsie plays that blow up in our faces....I think today shows what the identity of the offense SHOULD be and that's run first ( mainly because I can't stand watching TM pass) but also because when they go the pass, the drive always seems to stall. When you're getting chunks of yards running, KEEP RUNNING! I feel your pain Iowa because that is exactly what Coker was doing and they abandoned the run. I see it every week. Had Taylor not gotten hurt I'm afraid the running game was heading the direction it did last week. Good game and come bowl time I hope Rex breaks the record again! GBR!!!

And fumbled after catching passes..... Agree that Beck's hands were to a large degree tied. No Oline push (at all) resulting in zero running game, wrs dropping balls all over the place.....not easy. Certainly agree with BigWillie that the option needs to be dumped as it simply doesn't work as we play it and SuperRex isn't a speedster to boot. If we "must" use it bring in one of the triplets for it to have any kind of chance. Rough damn game. GBR!! Funny, I thought I recalled LSU and Alabama running option pretty frequently last night. or maybe stop running it to the short side of the damn field!!!

o-line was horrible and manhandled
