Decoy73 Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 We can stop the run, when we know they’re running. Couldn’t do that against Illinois last week or most of last year. We we will need to play much better than that offensively to beat Iowa. Beat ourselves too much today. Solid special teams play can make a huge difference. This is team doesn’t give up.

They don't get out of position very often. I thought we should've thrown long much more. It's hard to say because I don't know how the weather was affecting Martinez, but I thought we had guys open and could've done something with that. Good to see Martinez bailing on plays that aren't there instead of trying to force something. Quote Link to comment

I had that exact thought, and typed up a response, but double-checked before I sent it. We scored 21 points on seven Dale Klein field goals against Missouri in Columbia in 1985, but Doug DuBose scored a 4th-quarter TD and we won 28-20. Quote Link to comment
I am I Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 We had what, 3 lost fumbles and like 5 total in the 1st half? Cleaned that up nicely in the second half. Turnovers and penalties were my biggest concern coming into the season. The games we’ve won we seemed to clean those up at some point. First game for a lot of young players in really frigid cold weather. Great learning experience. Helps to salve the problems with a win. Quote Link to comment
