[Herky] This sucks

Sorry - the run was off the 'left tackle', not the right tackle I originally
stated.

IMHO. I think the same that I always have - the MAJOR  (not the only)
problem is in our play calling and QB play. We had a good run off the right
tackle, so why not do it 11 more friggin' times in a row? The rest of the
plays were as vanilla as you can imagine. Every single one was what you
could expect it to be in the given situation - predictable. Oh, and 3 minor
annoyances on defense - 1. if you are going to blitz, don't blitz
immediately into the back or lineman that will block you right out of the
play! Saw this happen 4 times. Absolutely useless to take a guy out of the
play with a stunt like that. 2. Another is why did we put a true freshman
against their elite receiver M-t-M? Also, the other D-backs seem to continue
to want to tackle after the catch, rather than break up the pass. 3. Why did
we not isolate a linebacker on Taylor? Have him shadow the guy exclusively.
He was 2-3 yds beyond the line of scrimmage almost every time before the 1st
hit occurred. Of COURSE he is going to put up 250 yds with that level of
respect boing offered. 

Aa for the QB play.Once Stanley realized he had an arm, he started throwing
some good passes, but he again started with the 'yips' and threw some
clunkers. Also, he is about as mobile as 6'5" lineman when he runs (that is,
when he decides to do so after an unbearably long delay on the goal line
conversion). He runs in a straight line - no cutting, deviation, or avoiding
obstacles in front of him. That is a problem.

I KNOW that Stanley is technically the 2nd best QB in Iowa history right
now, but I am sorry - I have never felt he was as good all around as the
hype suggests. He will be about as successful on Sundays as Jay Cutler was. 

Still a fan, still thinking they will win out, but DAMN, I wish we can start
winning the ones we weren't supposed to win. 

Is it wrestling season yet? Some GREAT news on that front. Will likely
detail it out this week, if anyone is interested...

Iowa will lose to Ninny & Illanoy, maybe beat Nuhbraksuh...maybe.

So disappointed with this team.  Such potential.  And nothing.  Barta needs
to go, clean house and be done with it.

Thanks for all your years, Kirk.  Thanks for letting your boys play for
Iowa. They were pretty good.  But the program has gone stagnant.  We aren't
progressing.  Minny is better by far.  Illinois is better than they've been
in a long time.  Same ol' same ol' and this year we went backwards.  

Sorry gang but very disgusted with this O.  Thank god the D has been very
good (for the most part).  The D just ran out of gas today.

As i watched this game I came to the conclusion that Iowa will probably be
no better than a 500 team in the Big Ten.Iowa is a development program.  I
am not sure that model will work any more.  The good players do not stick
around like they used too.  If Hooker, Nelson and at least one of the TE's
come back this year it is a totally different season.  More underclass
players will leave this year and Iowa will again be a couple of players
short of being able to complete for championships.

I hate losing to Wisconsin. I'd love to give Minnesota their first loss next
week but odds are not good.
