Swingin' Dick Stanzi might be on the sidelines, but the dick swingin' shouldn't stop there.
Battle music? Battle music:
Yep yep. Time to take it right to these Ohio State motherfuckers. The Rose Bowl's at stake, and Iowa's one play away from tying it up. Make it happen.

no huddle, so fuckeyes can't subsititue.
this place smells like feet. i’ll bring a can of lysol next week.
I actually don't mind that idea
Just a little hurry-up to get them off-guard.
'They are who we thought they were!'
What in Kirk Ferentz's career leads you to believe
that wouldn’t be an unmitigated disaster?

we're hoping for something that F@ckyes havn't seen on film. Podolak wants a reverse.

I've seen this before
Iowa gets off to a hot start after deferring the kick, gives up a couple of long drives but goes to the half within 10, and comes storming back?
Oh yeah, that game.
(Sorry, RUTS and Rambler. Had to do it.)
Before you respond, let me remind you: Brian Cook called me smug, which makes me the Obama of smugness. I'm basically Smugbama.
Remind me again
How this kick didn’t get blocked? Look at that…
'They are who we thought they were!'
Angles are playing tricks on you guys
The kick wasn’t anywhere close to being blocked.

We only had 1 left
Had 2, called one to stop the clock after OSU was stuffed and make them punt (had used the 1st TO in the 3rd quarter inside the redzone that resulted in the Murray miss).
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
It wasn't Millen, it was the other guy.
He said, “Kirk Ferentz uses his first timeout!” When we called a TO after OSU’s 3rd down.
So, we had 1 TO when we got the ball back. Regardless, I wish we would have tried to win.

can't complain too much about playing for OT
trying to go 50 yards with a freshman QB is comparable (lower) probability to letting our D win in OT. Unfortunately …
I will not stew over this one.
Seriously, we did everythinig that could be asked of us. And for the record, I would have played for overtime too. IN that situation Ohio State KNOWS we are going to throw and that is a recipe for disaster. Anyone who thinks we should have gone for it there with a FG kicker whose shot, is INSANE.

If you can't trust your QB not to throw a game-losing INT
then he shouldn’t be your QB.

Agree
Had momentum on our side. On 1st should have tried a pass for about 15-20 yds. Then see what happens.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
Here is the best argument...
for not puckering up late in the 4th and in OT:
It could have been a win in the shoe versus OSU. That doesn’t come by often. You have to TAKE it.

Yeah I agree for the most part....
I would have liked to see one pass attempt but we had the momentum going into OT we just ran four consecutive poor plays. Defense did their job we just didn’t get the breaks. Really needed a turnover somewhere in this game.
I can't believe we were so close
with a -3 TO margin (really -2 since that the last INT came on the last play of OT) and the points we left on the field (dropped TD pass, missed FG).

Minnesota isn’t very good, but we’re not good enough to sleepwalk through a game and expect to win.
Good Point
I don’t think they will. I was more concerned that the loss to NWU and no Stanzi would hurt us against OSU. They’re going to want to come out next week and destroy some people.
V-berg did great.
In the end, his stat line read 3 picks. Which, the last one, y’know, you don’t want to count against him, but then again, he escaped one on the Moeaki luckfest.
I don’t know if there’s gonna be a QB controversy. I mean, there will be amongst Hawkeye fans, but I’m talking about within the team.
honestly
his play today and assuming he plays well next week. Will have one of two possible effects. It will either make Stanzi a better QB or create havoc with fans everytime Stanzi stubs his toe.
"I think it's safe to say our concerns are many." -- Kirk Ferentz
Team loves Stanzi, I doubt it
I’m not going to lie though, the first time Stanzi throws one of his ridiculous pick-6s, Vandenberg’s performance in this game is going to be running through my mind
He played great today...
but then so did Stanzi about a year ago against PSU. Nothing definitely seen but we would all be singing his praises had he pulled this one out.
also
I have to wonder if Stanzi had been around (which would have changed the entirety of the game and maybe not have left us in that position), would Kirk have let him try to lead us down the field with 59 secs.
that's different. the guy has done four last second drives and
scored on three of them.

You know what else sucks? Jesse Palmer was right about us. I hate him more now.

Alright I need to get my mind off this loss.
Someone talk BCS with me. Assuming no craziness in the conference championship game we will probably see SEC and Texas in the MNC. 10 Positions remain. SEC will get another with the loser of the championship, Ga Tech gets ACC, Cincy gets big east, Only one team goes from the PAC-10 mess, Ohio State from the big ten (I think I’m going to be sick). That leaves 5 at large bids. Two spots go to Boise and TCU baring a major upsets. 3 spots left. Who gets them?
It would be very surprising for a 10-2 Iowa team not to get a bid.
Very surprising.
Nothing good ever had "State" in its name.
we have a helluva chance if we win next week

If we can put up 24 points on tOSU in their own crib, with a freshman QB starting his first game… well, my pants get tight thinking about what might happen next week. IF we don’t get back into our bad habit of playing down to our competition.

It looks that way....
gets its time to gear up for Minnesota. We got a few guys health this week and they made a difference. Lets see if we can keep it all together.
For starters, it's presumptuous to call us 10-2.
I just feel like the computers are out of love with us and our rank will drop precipitously this week.
I don’t see us in the BCS.

I didn't call us 10-2.
I said a 10-2 Iowa team would likely get a bid. Arizona, Penn State, Wisconsin, and (ugh) Iowa State are all helping us out, too.
Nothing good ever had "State" in its name.
I'm looking at the ranking though and a lot of the teams in the middle took a step back.
15 Houston, (Maybe 16 Utah) Arizona is looking to jump up but if they get there they will knock out 13 oregon. next three teams are penn state, OK St, and Wisky. Do they jump us?
I would not be surprised if they lose to Cincy and WVU
They haven’t played anyone yet outside of an OK SOuth Florida team

"I think it's safe to say our concerns are many." -- Kirk Ferentz
to Kirk...god yes.
we didn’t see any freakin Wildcat today. I think Kirk has made just one bad decision this year. He should have ripped the redshirt off of Mossbrucker. This season was too important.
"I think it's safe to say our concerns are many." -- Kirk Ferentz
I don't know about that, necessarily.
When would he have come in? Murray had no other FG opportunities after the missed FG. I’m not even sure Mossbrucker would have been doing kickoffs even if we had pulled his redshirt, he wouldn’t have prevented that kick OOB.
And, man, even if there had been a situation for him… talk about throwing a kid into the fire. That would have been tough.
... the fucking kick OOB... I'd forgotten that....

I've been a bit uneasy about Murray
since the MSU game where he had the three line-drives that barely got over the crossbar. I don’t think I would have pulled him but you could see he has been out of sorts for a while.
by Brock Sampson on Nov 14, 2009 6:37 PM CST up reply actions
three weeks ago
I’m on record for asking that he bring Mossbrucker in for Indiana. I saw then that murray’s technique had gone to shit. Whatever now.
The good news is…we have a pipeline…I think we are back for while as a program. Which is really. really nice. I also think we have Ferentz for good. I don’t think there is a stop for him after Iowa now.
"I think it's safe to say our concerns are many." -- Kirk Ferentz
but, that's a small issue
I am over the moon with Ferentz. He’s allowed to make this sort of call as there may be more to it than meets the eye. i just know Murray hurt us this week and last. and I saw it coming.
"I think it's safe to say our concerns are many." -- Kirk Ferentz
OPW, I should've qualified that.
I agree with you – that’s assuming Stanzi comes back 100%. Ankle injuries are screwy… I certainly don’t think Moeaki is the same player he was before his ankle got blowed up real good. :(
But I like what I see. If he’d thrown away the ball on that sack… at least Murray could’ve had a shot, even if it was long-range.
by Leftcoast Hawk on Nov 14, 2009 6:20 PM CST up reply actions
Ankle injuries...
definitely impact a tight end more than a quarterback. I get what you’re saying, but I don’t think that will be a huge deal for Stanzi.
Stanzi just needs to focus on not throwing so many fucking interceptions.
It's the plant foot too. For a guy who already soars the ball, it could be tricky for a long time.

The difference between the last 50 seconds and OT....
…..is that in OT our defense is on the field, a defense that wins games for us.
I think that’s the difference: on our own 35 with 50 seconds left with a freshman QB in Ohio stadium against OSU’s defense, the odds weren’t to KF’s liking.
Even up, our offense against theirs, our defense against theirs, and our kicker against theirs, he liked the odds better.
I understand the decision completely. I won’t second-guess it only because it didn’t work out.
If it's not too much trouble, search your soul--and then ask yourself if maybe I might have a point.
That’s assuming of course, that Jimmy V turns the ball over. I say give him a shot to win the game.

GUYS
Our WRs outplayed OSU’s. Even with Trey Stross’s brain having a miscarriage every time the ball came towards him. McNutt and DJK played fantastic.
Do you understand that IOWA’s wide receivers
outplayed
OHIO STATE’s.
Iowa, who has had the worst fucking receivers in the Big 10 since, like, 2003? 04?
Man, we picked up that Michigan WR coach, and that was a fucking steal. Holy shit.
The way I see it, OSU is still killing us at RB. They just get grade A backs. Heron turned a corner for a TD that no Iowa back could have. And then they have Saine. But WR? We were better than them. QB, you know, they get #1 recruits there too, but Pryor hasn’t been as effective as they had hoped. Stanziberg are in the performance ballpark, even with interceptions. And our D, we are very close to them, with lesser-ranked recruits.
Tressel is gonna have to change something because his era of absolute dominance is getting stretched pretty thin.
If our O-Line ever...
plays up to its above-average potential (they don’t have to play awesome, just well), then we win these damn games (OSU, NW).
But, they still pick times not to block, and it has gotten one QB killed, and it came pretty close to losing us the game in that OT.

yeah but
our O-Line has taken blows too. Even though Reiff played earlier in the year—I mean, he has enough experience—the line’s membership has been rotating a lot. Hard to establish consistency. I dunno. I don’t think you can expect an O-Line to play perfectly all the time. Unfortunate that the screw-ups have been in big spots.
the Robinson loss in OT was
our FBs missed block. I have TIVO. He was going to get 15 yards if Morse makes his block. He whiffed. Totally and his guy made the tackle. The O-line was great today. James had a lot of time on obvious passing downs.

Nice work on this one, guys.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
I have been on the phone with my family and friends for the last hour
I don’t know what has been said on here, but here’s what I think:
1. We didn’t deserve to lose. They made the least mistakes, and they did what Tressel’s teams always do: win any way possible.
2. The future is fucking bright. A week and a year from now they are in Kinnick, and as my friend Brian says “70,000 in Kinnick is much scarier than 100,000 in Columbus.”
3. They grow the grapefruits big in Keokuk. James Vandenberg was a man today. ‘Nuff said.
4. How beautiful was this: Tressell has a sophomore QB that is “the playmaker of the Big 10” and it was obvious from the jump that he wanted the ball no where near his hands when the game was on the line. Captain Kirk had a redshirt frosh making his first start and said “Here you go kid. This is your team.” I think we can agree whose offense was better for their coach’s attitude today."
5. Any other year, the prospect of 10-2 and the Cap One Bowl against an inferior (yeah I said it) SEC opponent is a dream. I wouldn’t want to be a head coach playing within 100 miles of a game Iowa was playing in if I was anybody except KF in the year 2010, what about you?
