***Official Iowa Game Discussion Thread***

STATS DON'T LIE:

Granted lots of game left, but this should scare all Cornhusker fans.

152 came in 2 plays. The points on the board really hurt but those yards are somewhat a mirage
Huh?
152 yards were gained on 2 plays yes they gained the yards and it counts but that isn't indicative of how efficient their offense is working today. If they keep breaking off big plays regularly then I will eat my words but I would guess Iowa gains less yards the rest of the game than they did in the first quarter
So you're saying Iowa will gain slightly less than the 800 yards their on pace for? I agree
However, those yards are real and are indicative of how bad their offense whipped out defense
No I'm saying in quarters 2-4 combined Iowa will gain less than 198 yards, the yardage they accrued in the 1st quarter.
It's not really indicative of the entire set. It's indicative of 2 plays that make up for 75% of their yardage
Don't feed the troll
Yeah sorry for being trollish and calling out BS

I'll work on it
I'm sure you will.

 
We need to ask Hanukkah Harry to sneak in some boundary, toss/sweep, and rollout pass/option pass plays into the playbook this Holiday season.
Try the Maryland game plan. Seriously, I wonder if TA simply can't make those boundary type throw......
I think we know the answer to that after four years...

And there's still plenty that can be done. But someone in our media seriously needs to light Langsdorf up about this during the bowl/offseason.

 
Does anyone think we should be spreading Iowa out and playing with some tempo. Feels like we are just playing to their strength running inside the tackles.
That's Langs MO.....the 5 games prior to Maryland was the same. 3 of the 5 we were able to out athlete them. Wisky and OSU, no and we lost..... same with this one if Langs keeps calling this craptastic game plan..

nope, they tow the "company" line.

 
That wasn't Langs...there were receivers running crosses. TA just wants to play hero.
That is why I say TA should be benched. He loves the deep ball. If he is not running, he should not be playing.
That's all on Langs. He's the offensive coordinator and QB coach. If he can't come up with a scheme that plays to Tommy' strengths, then it is all on him. Tommy wants to play. Offensive and defensive meltdowns are not the players' faults. This crap is squarely on the shoulders of Riley's Stooges.
Just when I thought you couldn't say anything any dumber........
Running straight up the gut is a good plan? Going yard on passing plays.....come on man, Langs is calling a crap game.
Yea, Langs is the one who ignores the short routes and throws YOLO's all the time. 80-90% of our problem is between TA's ears, not the playcalling. The sooner that you and others that think this way realize that a pass play has more than one route and it's up to the QB to throw it to where the defense allows him too the better off you will be. It isn't Langs fault when TA throws it to guys who are covered.
It's Langs fault that our running game is so uninspired that teams don't respect it, and play coverage vs loading the box.

If Langsdorf is still employed by then the media needs to start lighting up Eichorst about Riley.
