[Herky] The one thing that has impressed me most about Iowa football

The ability to answer.

It seems that every time the opponent scores on a long drive or short drive (long plays), the Hawks offense has always answered with a score of their own. And many times their answer comes in the form of a very long drive with a lot of time coming off the clock.  I attribute most of this success to Beathard and his poise and intelligence.  I also give a lot of credit to the offensive coordinator and staff for the play calling.

I don’t know if I heard this correctly, but I believe Gary Dolphin said in his post-game commentary that Iowa has trailed for only 12 plays from scrimmage in the second half of all games this year.  Did I hear that correctly?  If so, it’s a tribute to how Iowa can quickly answer with a score after they fall behind or are tied.
