I guess NU’s not going to suddenly play a 5-2. No sense trying to stop the run.

Operation “Self-Destruct” has been initiated

We simply can’t sustain momentum...we try hard to dig ourselves in holes

 

[PaulCrewe]

I mean that was the perfect series to show Iowa both AM and Luke on the field.  You can't keep that package in your back pocket when down multiple possessions.

yes I am calling for another grueling Iowa drive for 6 here

Why Fartniok continues to play is beyond me but its par for the course. 

 

[Caliborn72]

#54 on their defense gets the game ball if they win this. He’s been a terror today when the rest of their defense looks meh to me.

 

[Pasadena Husker]

They'll have another long drive with a TD to get us into the 4th quarter unless we get them out of their game plan. 

Petras isn't that good.  i think he'll make a mistake

 

[The Scarlet Pimpernel]

When is the last time we played a complete game? 

 

[BIGREDIOWAN]

The defense has to dig deep on this drive and Chin needs to dial up some pressure! 

 

[Farms]

We need them to turn it over or they’ll most likely go score again.

 

[huskerfaninbuckeyehell]

Does Nelson play with his eyes closed?

 

[knapplc]

Holding.  Jeez.

 

[mwj98]

Honas refuses to wrap up!

 

[Canadian Fan]

Farniok is cumbersome.  Slow feet.

Impressed with Iowa's LB' lateral speed.  They appear to close on runners much quicker than our LB's.

Of note on the Iowa TD, Williams literally got picked by Payne.  Everyone was supposed to slant to their left and Payne just submarined his guy which not only took him out of the play, but blocked Williams too.  

 

[Hayseed]

Why don't we get in their face...how much nickel dime garbage can they run successfully?
