I get the feeling that not having Ryan in there is really hurting us right now
November 5th, 2011 at 12:57 PM ^
I hope borges takes the governor off of our Ferrari qb and quits grinding his gears with Gardner.
November 5th, 2011 at 12:57 PM ^
I don't care if it's a field goal. Iowa is doing a great job of keeping us guessing on D.
November 5th, 2011 at 12:59 PM ^
Dernard has looked good passing, so he brings in DG again, and runs Dernard around the left. Then Dernard has to step back in and pass on 3rd and medium. We've looked like trash since.
Sometimes I feel borges is way too technical, like 'It works on paper so it will work now', and not feeling the flow if the game enough.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:03 PM ^
Seriously, Coach Borgess can design better running plays for Denard than like a wildcat, can't he?
November 5th, 2011 at 1:00 PM ^
Batman!
November 5th, 2011 at 1:01 PM ^
November 5th, 2011 at 1:02 PM ^
Denard's not going anywhere.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:26 PM ^
Love the loyalty, but the kid deserves better.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:03 PM ^
November 5th, 2011 at 1:11 PM ^
I don't understand why we stopped running him. Why give Vinny the carries when Fitz was doing so well.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:04 PM ^
Denard isn't doing anything rushing. But that was a good completion there.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:04 PM ^
At least on that last play. Not sure why we suddenly can't execute these, but that does seem to be the problem.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:04 PM ^
3rd and 7 conversion!
November 5th, 2011 at 1:05 PM ^
Uh, was a flag thrown?
November 5th, 2011 at 1:06 PM ^
That did not just happen...
November 5th, 2011 at 1:06 PM ^
If Iowa gets a TD here, then we are in BIG trouble
November 5th, 2011 at 1:07 PM ^
Well, Denard just put it on the turf. Watch Vincent Smith pick up the blitz!
November 5th, 2011 at 1:07 PM ^
November 5th, 2011 at 1:07 PM ^
Borges should get his resume together.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:08 PM ^
How the fuck wasn't that a pass interference on Roundtree?
November 5th, 2011 at 1:08 PM ^
No PI. Good call.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:11 PM ^
the ball would have hit him in the hands.
Instead, Roy misjudged it, thinking he needed to shield the defender from the ball.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:11 PM ^
I guess. Just seemed like the db slashed Roundtree on the forearm before the ball got there.

I would have thought you knew that is taught as a way to draw PIs. Just not enough contact for the actual call, but don't throw the flag then.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:08 PM ^
That's it. Become a receiver or just stay on the damn bench Denard
November 5th, 2011 at 1:09 PM ^
Gtfo dude.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:08 PM ^
Great stop by the defense!!!
November 5th, 2011 at 1:09 PM ^
November 5th, 2011 at 1:29 PM ^
getting abused.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:09 PM ^
God damn it ferentz, go back to being predictable
November 5th, 2011 at 1:10 PM ^
Denard braced himself by putting the ball on the ground.
That is down. It didn't come out of his hand immediately when it touched the ground.
No replay? No challenge?
November 5th, 2011 at 1:15 PM ^
A few weeks ago. A player is down when any part of his body other than the palm of the hand or the sole of the foot touches the ground.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:10 PM ^
Didnt the ground technically cause Denards fumble?
November 5th, 2011 at 1:13 PM ^
No part of his body was on the ground.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:10 PM ^
I would hate to be a player at half time. The coaches hve to be very displeased with their play. Especially if you win championships in November.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:12 PM ^
It didn't expect us to come out so flat
November 5th, 2011 at 1:10 PM ^
I wish our offense looked like last years offense, BUT next year this offense is gonna be great.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:13 PM ^
I hope so. My concern is going to be at center. Whoever comes in is going to be inexperienced.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:14 PM ^
I don't care about how our offense looks in 365 days at the moment, thank you.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:14 PM ^
Borges searching for a change up.
But now that Fitz is showing himself to be a real option, I think the need for frequent unusual plays has gone away.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:12 PM ^
I'm losing it
November 5th, 2011 at 1:14 PM ^
I've drunk way too much coffee this morning to endure this. Time to switch to something more alcoholic...
November 5th, 2011 at 1:12 PM ^
Anybody else think this is a must score drive, coming up?
November 5th, 2011 at 1:14 PM ^
Any kind of score really helps here.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:13 PM ^
Iowa is supposed to be weak at outside runs but they are eating us alive, and we are making Binns look like an All American.
We seem to be having success, again, running inside and short seams or curls. I'd love to see them keep it simple and mix it up like that.
Dernard looks so reluctant to run.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:14 PM ^
Go for the jugular on offense here...engage gallon cloaking device.
November 5th, 2011 at 1:15 PM ^
Ferentz getting his Zook on
