OPEN!GAMELIVE<3THREAD!CHATWHAM !!!! (TM): IOWA-ISU
Iowa St. Cyclones at Iowa Hawkeyes, Sep 13, 2008 11:05 AM CDT
Sure, the line's 13.5, but let's be clear: if Iowa doesn't roll these guys, it's going to be a really uncomfortable weekend in the River City. If we lose? God have mercy on Iowa City, for the riots will be angry and unrelenting, the death toll in the millions. Win, Hawkeyes. Win for the city. Win for us all.

Stanzi needs to calm down.
Still, the offense looks pretty good. Line’s doing a nice job and guys are getting open.
How?!
Iowa’s been on offense….

ISU once again hitting Iowa on the sidelines.
That’s where to pass it against the Iowa D.
And no, he was way outside the box and he threw it toward a receiver, past the line. Cool it, spanky.
AKA Shadow
I thought we benched Christensen?
What is this shit?
that was dead on though
nice scramble and throw
by chitownhawkeye on Sep 13, 2008 11:24 AM CDT reply actions
I think he's just nervous
When he’s moving around and doesn’t have time to think about it he’s a lot better.
are you joking!
he was nowhere near the reciever

DirecTV question
Are those of you on satellite getting choppy reception or is it just Mediacom?
AKA Shadow
I'm sorry
did he just praise KoK?
It was a beautiful play
by chitownhawkeye on Sep 13, 2008 11:40 AM CDT reply actions
DId...KOK just make a good call?
I don’t know what to believe anymore.
i choose
to believe it was improvised

well that was a scary ten seconds
Green on the bench and a fumbled snap
"I'm not racin', I'm just sprintin'
Cuz I don't wanna finish
they diminish, I replenish"
-Lil Wayne "Let the beat build"
and it all worked out fine
Greene back in the game and fumble recovered

oh shit oh shit oh shit
Shonn Greene limping off
He's back.
Let’s see if he’s 100%.

It's safe to say this
Stanzi is much more mistake-prone than Christensen, but Christensen takes himself out of position to succeed more often.
AKA Shadow
Totally different
being the starter vs. the no-pressure #2. It’s the difference between playing with nothing to lose vs. playing with everything to lose. Bound to be a dip.
Mr. Boh Knows ...
I'd like to see
Ricky tuck and run on some of those plays. Although, i like that he looks downfield.
3rd and 11
throw behind the line.
I see KoK took the headset back

Ryan Donahue might be the best player on the team
This isn’t even really a knock on the rest of the team either.
whoops, hit enter too soon
anyway, I’m still convinced that Greenwood mostly stinks, but he is the king of being in the right place at the right time for a key INT
Doesn't that mean he doesn't stink?

Good to see him in 27's ear after he ran him over.
Iowa’s been missing that.
AKA Shadow
by Adam Jacobi on Sep 13, 2008 11:54 AM CDT up reply actions
when he misses, it's bad
but the throws he’s hit have looked good. As long as the offense keeps moving, he’ll be ok
by chitownhawkeye on Sep 13, 2008 11:57 AM CDT up reply actions
this is what worries me
but the defense is looking pretty good
by chitownhawkeye on Sep 13, 2008 12:05 PM CDT up reply actions
ummmm...
maybe wait for the ball to be caught?
by chitownhawkeye on Sep 13, 2008 12:06 PM CDT reply actions
so when did you think he realized he was in trouble
after the hit when the ball hit him in the back?

Actually, I'm fine with that.

if Greene could make his cuts on this field
he’d be having a monster game
by chitownhawkeye on Sep 13, 2008 12:08 PM CDT reply actions
This is painful.
Between the chokaholic play of Iowa and the technical difficulties, this game is only watchable because Iowa’s involved.
AKA Shadow
I figured ISU would run out the clock, FG
Then get the ball after half
by storminspank on Sep 13, 2008 12:17 PM CDT up reply actions
The QB staring blanking at the sideline as the playclock ticked down
is a big confidence booster.

Great play by Sash!
Knocks him out of bounds, short of the first down. Great pursuit.
And now ISU ices their own punter.
AKA Shadow
Greene slips again
get him some new cleats

why are we not trying to move down the field?
I don’t feel good about 3-0 at half
by chitownhawkeye on Sep 13, 2008 12:23 PM CDT reply actions
3-0 at the break
Iowa really ought to be up by much more. ISU doesn’t deserve to be within striking distance.
AKA Shadow
i really hate the script
does chizik just gear them up, or does ferentz prep in a half-butted way?

Need a 3 and out to start the 2nd half.
Cannot let them hang around.

ISU is going to be boms away in the second half
Hoping a DB slips and banking on us imploding inside the 35 everytime.
urgh...for Christensen sake, we need to get this thing going.
Oops…will we see JC in the second half?
The latter
This drive should have been over awhile ago and we should be up by at least a couple TDs.
they're not that good
exhibit A: they last 45 seconds
by chitownhawkeye on Sep 13, 2008 12:56 PM CDT up reply actions
great interception
but he really should’ve tried harder to stay in bounds
by chitownhawkeye on Sep 13, 2008 12:58 PM CDT reply actions
oh for fuck's sake
That’s a hell of a time for “Shanks” Donahue to return
Oh for fuck sake
I hope I’m wrong, but we’re going to find a way to lose.
Iowa's not wrapping up anymore.
I’d be surprised if ISU doesn’t run this one into the end zone.
AKA Shadow
They've been on defense the ENTIRE third quarter.
Another ISU game, another nighmare. It’s almost expected at this point.
Good lord.
One TD drive by Iowa and it’s over. That’s all it would take.
Delay handoffs aren't Iowa's bread and butter
Iowa’s so much more effective with aggressive, straight-up rushing.
AKA Shadow
Overthrow everyone by like 20 feet
Which is definitely an improvement.
at this point
don’t you have to put him in
by chitownhawkeye on Sep 13, 2008 1:16 PM CDT up reply actions
OK, get a decent return, settle down...
…get some first downs and retake control of this game. That was a crazy 3rd quarter, but you’re still only tied. One good drive and you’re right back in decent shape.
Wow
I’m not sure I like yanking a guy in his first start against a real team, but here goes.
It's the right thing to do
Stanzi is doing nothing
by storminspank on Sep 13, 2008 1:21 PM CDT up reply actions
agreed. for the first time in a long time, i'm happy to see jake
out there

How about DJK talking to both guys???
Good to see. Also good to see JC push Iowa to midfield right away.
Here we go!
AKA Shadow
nice touch
gotta keep stanzi mentally in the game.
by chitownhawkeye on Sep 13, 2008 1:23 PM CDT up reply actions
If he could have cut on a dry field in half #1
That might be his 2nd or 3rd today. What an odd game.
ISU has not managed this game well at all
Iowa should be winning, but administratively they suck balls.
no shit
We should play nickel permanently
by storminspank on Sep 13, 2008 1:39 PM CDT up reply actions
Iowa's secondary isn't very good.
Guys were getting open in the first two game too, it’s just that the d-line dominated and the competition sucked
Seriously though, Prater is a stud
Going to be starting at the end of this year, if not then by next year.
No he didn't
It was wide, high, and way too hard.
Yeah, I was quick to the post there.
What a punt though.
same way to shread them as always
short underneath passes.

heeee yaaaa

I LOVE IT! I LOVE IT! I LOVE IT!
Channeling Zabel. That was beautiful AB.
Arnaud is freaking accurate.
And this is bordering on breaking if they’re not careful.
Why the fuck?
Have we reverted right back to that same shitty soft zone that got us killed last year? We went away from it in the first half and were doing great.
Thank god for the wasted timeouts.
They may prove crucial.
Assuming they get the ball back...
They’ll need one Shonn Greene first down run to ice it. ONE.
Prob. Iowa State's band
They are better than Iowa’s

Jake
Last week was against shit opponent.
This week was the truth.
Jake didn’t look good, just didn’t look as bad as Stanzi.
And its on the road.
by storminspank on Sep 13, 2008 2:11 PM CDT up reply actions
It's not like Stanzi's mistakes had anything to do with the opponent though
He was just overthrowing open guys. If he can just calm down, he’ll be fine. He’s young, it’ll come with experience. It’s way to quick to pull the plug on him completely, especially with Jake’s history. Open the competition back up and practice, and start whoever wins.
Not even if they win next week
Pitt sucks ass.
No its just dumb.
Someone is going to get hurt one of these games. And in all honesty its just ISU. Only the students from the section that connects to the ground rushed. The students on the side stayed put pretty much.
Easy there, Pilgrim...
did you just say it’s ONLY ISU? Tell freakin’ Florida it’s ONLY FSU or Alabama that it’s ONLY Auburn or USC that it’s ONLY UCLA or any other in-state rivalry you want that it’s ONLY the other team. If it’s ONLY ISU, why are 3-2 against them in the last 5 only winning at home?
Likewise, do you know any ISU fans? Have they not had a year of bragging rights? Any conversation over the last year about ISU football with my buddies has gone like this:
Me: You guys are fuckin’ 3-9 on the season.
ISU Butthead: Yeah, but we beat you on a last minute field goal.
Damn right rush the field. And go Cal vs. Stanford band on some ISU athletic trainer or cord girl. (Okay, maybe that last comment was over the top but I still stand by the need to rush the field when beating ISU.)
Hahaha
The kneel-down straight into a sprint to the trophy is the best thing Jake has ever done
I would like
To extend a giant FUCK YOU to the wonderful people at United Airlines. Because of your utter incompetence, I was not able to watch the game from Kinnick field and instead had to catch the second half from a bar in the Cedar Rapids airport.
DAMMIT!!!!
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
huh?
You do realize the drive from CID to Iowa City only takes 30 minutes? Why did you sit in the airport for the whole second half?
