Actually, not you
because you’re largely absent during the in-game threads. Was referring more to the posters who apparently don’t ever want a disparaging word heard/written. EVER.
I ate the blue ones ... they taste like burning.
There are at least 2
and possibly 2-3 more, people that are only too gleeful when anyone who is a bit negative — rightly or wrongly — decides to leave.

Yeah, I really don't understand that
I know I’m one of the worst pessimists on here but I really try hard to not attack any other BHGPers personally for their opinions – in the end, we are all Iowa fans and there’s no reason to get into pissing contests.

Biggest argument was over playing McCall in the red zone.
Which seems like a decent thing to discuss.
The second half was an improvement on all fronts compared to parts of the first, which would have made even Gandhi drop an f-bomb or three.

i think he may have been able to get it, but wasn't guaranteed it
and with the NCAA, you can never tell which way the call will go
With the NCAA, it's never guaranteed.
Beutjer got a medical redshirt when he had no medical problem. Case Keenum gets one for a supposed HS injury that lingered into college, even when no one hardly mentioned it until the day he sent in his form.
Then someone else gets denied for no reason at all. I’d never assume anything with the NCAA.

Keenum tore his ACL last year, isnt that why he got it?
by clay-born to party on Nov 19, 2011 2:54 PM CST up reply actions
He asked for, and got, a sixth year.
The rational I read was some kind of HS injury that lingered and so on, but it sounded rather fishy as a means to get him a second redshirt season.

This game had been planned in my head since it was announced to be on Black Friday.
My family’s Iowa allegiances against my will-be wife’s Nebraska allegiences. And then all hell broke loose.
Now, I’m in Shanghai where they don’t have Thanksgiving, and it’s 77* and humid, alone, and 14 hours ahead meaning that if I want to watch the game live, I have to talk a “western” sports bar that is really a non-American sports bar, to stay open in the wee hours of the night.

For the most part.
I think I have the inside track on a job, which is good. One of the reasons I came here was because this is an employee’s market. After getting shut down so much over the summer, I do not want to go through countless interviews again.
Kids love me. I like kids. Except they stare at my still-healing nose from where a dog bit off the tip right before I came out. Supposedly, as “westerners” (I think white (or black) must be implied – a SE Asian westerner wouldn’t get the same treatment – not sure about Hispanics, anywho…) we can go to the best clubs and drink for a very low price. Like… bottomless, mid-level scotch for 10 RMB, or $1.60. The two guys teaching us our TEFL certificate course have both been here five years and are under 30. Both have Asian gf’s. Pretty much know the way around.
I thought about slingbox right before I left but decided against it. But right now, I’m really wishing I had one. Especially with the basketball team being exciting. Plus, if you teach at a private place (not in a traditional school) you teach from 5-8, perfect for night-time CST, morning CST* sporting viewing.

Michigan just beat Nebraska handily, by 28
But they lost to Michigan State by 14 and Iowa by 8
Michigan State lost to Nebraska by 21, but beat Iowa by 16
So…Iowa will beat Nebraska, but the final score will be 34-17 in favor of Nebraska?
Don't forget
that we beat Northwestern, but UN-L lost to jNU

A nebraska team that is synonymous(sp?) with collapsing late in the season.
But this year they aren’t n the big 12 north so they don’t have the division sealed away in october.
We have a lot to clean up
on our own part in order to get the win. But, we’re at almost exactly the place where we were predicted to be — albeit by a completely unexpected route.

So in terms of best QB-RB-WR trios in the Big10
It has to be between Wisconsin and Iowa, right?
QB: Russel is better than Vandy
RB: Ball is slightly better than Coker
WR: McNutt is way better than Toon
So I guess Wisconsin has it, but maybe not by a huge margin.
If we had Wisconsin's O line Coker would be leading the fucking nation in rushing right now.

agreed.
although I don’t think our line is by any means bad. And also if we had wilson they couldn’t commit 8 in the box quite as often.
If Vandenberg wouldn't panic on a blitz so much
I really think Coker’s totals might be even higher; teams wouldn’t blitz if they knew Vandy would make them pay for it.
If he can ever learn to throw the roll-out and play actions consistently – or improve dramatically next year – Coker is going to put up some all world numbers next season.
The thing that’s so striking is we don’t have a bad team, we have a team that if the defense had just been a little better I think we’d be sitting at 8-3 or better right now.

Did anyone think at the beginning of the season
That we would see PSU and OSU playing each other with interim coaching staffs?
Times are truly strange… its almost like the One Ring is loose and causing havoc and Frodo is on his way to Mount Doom in the middle of football season
Never *question* Bruce Dickinson!

At the beginning of the season?
Maybe. OSU had already moved to FIckell and I always figured JoePa could catch pneumonia or just keel on any given day. But at the end of last season with Tress firmly in place I would have said no way.
This Penn State thing is the last thing I would have ever expected out of State College
Although now that you read the articles, the probe with Sandusky appear to be a poorly kept secret within the college football coaching profession… no one would touch him after he retired; now we know why.

The whole thing still stinks.
I was told the other day that JoePa moved the title of his house into his wife’s name solely last summer. Haven’t seen an article on this specifically but haven’t looked hard either.
What is really truly damning here
Is that no one is coming out of the woodwork to defend Sandusky publicly other than the dude he’s hired to defend him. You get the whole sort of uncomfortable silence going on in the Penn State community… like they know they’ve collectively fucked up and they’re afraid where Thor’s hammer is going to land next.
And that’s probably enough talking about this topic for today.

http://www.thebirdcult.net
by The Bird Cult on Nov 19, 2011 4:02 PM CST up reply actions
Probably
But I just want to note two things. One topical, one not. First of all no one has really came out to defend JoePa either. He was always known as a coach who ran his program the right way and really developed young men but we just don’t see people making many statements in support of him right now as if they are afraid of being labeled as sympathizers. The other thing is I really appreciate the fact that you work in a geeky (nerdy, whichever term you prefer) reference in to a lot of your comments.
Aw thanks
I’m a geeky guy. I am compelled to do so. I enjoy your comments as well.
On the other, I think the PSU fan base wants to believe that Joe Pa was just a naive old man, but I think its starting to sink in now that maybe he wasn’t, and its not worth getting new orifices being ripped into your collective hide defending someone who did not “do the right thing” in a most heinous way.
Plus, the part that’s even more mystifying… if Paterno on that campus was “like God” then are there other skeletons buried that are even worse? I mean, bad enough that they would hide a pedophile for fear that even worse stuff would be exposed?
I’m probably wearing too much tinfoil on my head on that last comment, but you know, you wonder…

You know, I really am not enjoying this game at all.
I mean, I hate tOSU and its going to take a long time to get back any love for Penn State, although I do separate the fans from the coaching staff and school.

Per the P-C's game notes
**Former Hawkeye and current Indianapolis Colts linebacker Pat Angerer talked briefly with quarterback James Vandenberg on the sidelines just before halftime. "He told me at halftime that he lost his cell phone on the field, and that if I found it, to let him know," Vandenberg said.
That's more than awesome.

notes from Iowa Wrestling
125,133,141,157,165,174, and heavyweight are looking great starter wise. 157 especially has 4 guys in the semifinals, which is fantastic
149 is looking muddled. Carew is hurt i think, J. Ballweg lost via Major, and the guy who majored him was pinned by Grothus so………who knows whats happenin there anymore
184: This Fahler kid ive never heard of from Iowa is looking fantastic, better than expected for sure
197. Lira is making a run in the consolations. i want a Fahler vs Lira for 197 match, just to see who would win

That was a good win. Not pretty but football seldom is.
Perhaps my best years are gone... but I wouldn't want them back. Not with the fire in me now. No, I wouldn't want them back.
I’m with you. At this point of the season, why does the how matter? Vandy got a win on the road, looked horrible only when put into a moronic play from his own 1, and both the OL and DL looked competent. I’m pretty pleased, particularly going into next week with those Nebraska fucks who have nothing to play for.
We have little chance against Nebby. We HAVE to take an early lead or it's a wrap.

It will be about big plays and who gets more.
Iowa was giving all the big plays away in the first half of this game and somehow managed to stay on top score wise. The second half purdue just had crushing turn overs. If that happens next week Iowa has a chance.
The guy who has watched Iowa all year would agree they have no chance. However, I think Nebraska’s packed it in. And, Iowa played hard today. So, who knows?
it's a home game
Nebraska will be ready.

Where they ready for NW?
I only saw the last drive by NW but they literally crammed it down Nebby’s throat with the option.
I didn't see that.
I just have memories of what has always happened to Iowa teams in Lincoln. Ugly

They were the favorites by the END of the spring (after the BTN & tWWL hype trains came through town)
But early in the spring I remember everyone making fun of the Nebby fans who thought they’d walk to the title their first year.
Everyone should have stuck with their gut feeling.
In that spirit, everyone also figured “Chicken Wing” Martinez wouldn’t last a full season in the Big Ten, so my prediction is that we hurt him in six days and he doesn’t play another game for the Huskers, ever.

Missed the OMHR game, but checked the post-game stats.
How did Eric Guthrie record a 5 yard reception? Was it EPIC?
Didn't he have like a 12 yd kick that he somehow managed to recover?
IDK…I missed part of the game so I might have been hallucinating.

Is there any chance for an iowa vs ISU rematch?
Or does ISU have to win out for that to happen? We’d proly have to lose to Nebby too, otherwise we’d prolly be heading to Gator Cup.
It would have to be the Car Care Bowl.
which is the Big 12’s 6th or 7th selection based BCS at large berths. Current Big 12 stands are as follows:
OK St
OK
K State
Mizzou
aTm
Baylor
Texas
ISU
So essentially aTm, Texas, or Baylor will be on a collision course for the Care Car Bowl which is in Texas. Even if the Big 12 gets 2 BCS at large bids they would still have one of those three schools left when the 7th big 12 selection is made. So even if Iowa ended up there (and they would have to lose to do so, I think) there isn’t much of a change of a bowl in texas passing up a texas team.
Now that is a good point.
If they try to black ball Mizzou and aTm down a few spots…maybe…MAYBE ISU slips into the car care. but I think a texas school would be too good to pass up.
yeah, i think Nebraska was the presumed team to play Iowa.
But the Insight committee was giving them an FU so they took Mizzou instead And got FU’d in the process.
meh
good zoon!
