GAMETHREAD NUMERO TWO: WINNING IS FUN

I hope this time injured has given him some perspective. I was hoping JVB would play better only for the fact that it would ostensibly push Stanzi. In any event, I hope Stanzi comes back improved and does not feel the need to spot the opposition seven points .

David Cato with a special teams tackle

Every time I see him make the play on special teams and goal line situations—and it’s all him on those plays—I lament that his inability to crack the starting lineup may force him to transfer to anywhere that’ll have him. Dude can play. It’s just… so can Sash.

David Cato is 5' 11" 205...which means

he’s probably 5-8 but if he can gain some weight maybe he can make the switch to LB.

It's a quirk of scheduling.

They had the dates come free when the NCAA switched to a 12-game season, since they had to reserve FSU and Auburn (respectively) for the last game—which used to be this week.

Now, if you want to say “yes but these teams are jokes,” of course they are; what team in their right mind would imperil their season by adding a lose-able game in the middle of November if they don’t have to?

Looking at the stats and Wegher had 15 carries for 26 yards.

I’m no football genius, so I can’t spot anything, but what exactly are they doing that is tipping off the run when he’s in the game?

by Kinnick Stadium is my Graceland on Nov 21, 2009 2:17 PM CST reply actions 0 recs

It is weird...i read

that DJK leaves the huddle differently on a run as opposed to a pass. But Wegher himself has to be tipping it off. Although, is the Big Ten sharing it among themselves and somehow we are clueless? Seems unlikely. Wegher might be running too low and commmitting to early on the holes.

I’ve noticed that there’s a pretty definite trend in the way Wegher lines up and what the play call is. When he’s shallow in the backfield it’s a pass, when he’s deep, it’s a run.

Never looks for the cut back, and until today we rarely threw

We also seem to run the same play for him; he always hits it off tackle on the stretch. A-Rob had some nice counter runs in the first half that we never seem to call for Wegher. Wegher might be better on draws than A-Rob, adn I like Wegher in the screen game, but we didn’t run any of those today. A couple of draws for A-Rob and one for or two for Wegher, but that was it. More draws might have slowed down the blitz they calle don every third down that we couldn’t exploit because we were running play action, 7 step drops.

My new theory, KOK is an idiot, and Stanzi was audibling out of these terrible calls.

Well, for starters...

1) It takes an enormous amount of luck and improbability to go undefeated.
2) As we saw just this season, injuries can totally derail an offense. Defenses are also susceptible.
3) No word yet on who’s transferring or going to the NFL early.
4) As this season demonstrated, even going undefeated isn’t a guarantor of BCS championship eligibility; the fact that Iowa’s toughest road game is at Arizona in September won’t help their cause.
5) The returning talent level isn’t quite at the elite level just yet.
6) Most importantly, the mere notion that we can “demand” a national title from ANY team, not just Iowa, is among the most odious and obnoxious of fan behavior. If you’re going to piss and moan if Iowa goes 10-2 or 11-1, then you don’t really get what’s so fun about football and you’re just using it as an outlet for your ugliest impulses.

It’s fine to go into 2010 thinking that Iowa’s one of the contenders for a BCS bowl. It’s neither productive nor enjoyable to turn it into a “demand” for a title, especially when we’re talking about 18- to 22-year-olds playing sports. In fact, it’s fucking ridiculous. Use your head, man.

Not happy SDSU was able to score more points against Minny...

…than us. Strangely, I almost felt better after our loss against OSU than after this one.

BUT, two straight shutouts against the LOLphers feels great. Our O-line was, um, not very good today, and VBerg certainly didn’t impress like he did last week.

BUT, our D was phenomenal and was doubly phenomenal when it really mattered.

Bottom line, we won, we’re 10-2, and we’re hopefully on our way to a BSC game. Hoping for an Okie State loss against OU next week and an Oregon loss against either Arizona today or Oregon State next week. Would be nice to see Wisky or PSU lose (sorry, PSU fans, nothing personal; go to hell, Wisky fans) as well so the idiot Big 12 coaches can’t justifiably rank either of them higher than us.

All in all, it’s been a strange, exciting, gut-wrenching season, and I’m glad we were able to end on a high note. After all we’ve been through this year, the close score probably shouldn’t surprise me at all. Hope A-Rob gets better in time for the bowl game, wherever it may be. Stanzi and the rest of the injured players too, for that matter.

Great season, Hawks! Let’s cap it off by smacking someone around in Phoenix or Miami.

Also, bummed that OSU doesn’t have to share the Big Ten crown, but Michigan staying home for bowl season two years in a row is a beautiful thing. I was fine with either team winning that one.

A season can change in a blink. Expecting or demanding a championship in college football is idiotic. We are good, and we can expect this team to compete at the highest levels next year.

Tough to argue that, but also tough to fully agree -

We’ve never fielded a complete, healthy offense the entire season. Not even counting Hampton – there’s been a key role-player out for every game. By the time the bowl comes around, we should (ugh, dear god please) have everyone healthy, and will have had some good time to heal and get good reps & prep. With the offense we’re actually supposed to have out there, we could be a freaking juggernaut. But to be fair, I did use an awful lot of modals there, so you know, no guarntees or whatever.

That's OK

I liked JC6. I would hate to see Binns or Claybourne break him in two

Why does this program continue to schedule 1-AA teams???

schedule a C-USA or some other small conference team, but 1-AA teams kill BCS rankings.

Um...

Alabama and Florida played I-AA teams this season. Voters don’t actually care.

I mentioned this earlier but given the recent discussion I'll post it again

My friend works at U of I hospitals with someone who knows an assistant coach (that part is true—the coach is his neighbor—but whether he was told the following can be qualified as rumor). Anyway, he told my buddy that Jewel Hampton will be number one the depth chart—which makes sense given KF loyalty to players (he gave Paki his shot after all). Arob and Brinson would be 2-3 respectively though they would split carries; the best back would assume the number 2 position. The major thing would be that Wegher would move to back up Greenwood as free safety.

Hmmm.

If he’d be good at safety, then I’m all for the move. No offense to Joe Conklin, but, y’know.

It does bum me out a bit that they’d give up on putting the ball in his hands; once he gets past the point of attack, he’s dynamic. Oh well. Hope he still returns kicks and punts or something.
