LOL yeah right. He's a top five pick, GUARANTEED. You must not have ever watched Jared Goff if you think this is bad...
I think their secondary is suspect. If we can provide Park some time, we'll put points on the board.
There was a call of 4th and 1.5 from the Iowa 38 where Wyoming punted that had me shaking my head. It was a pretty close game up to that point and it really turned the tide, they needed freaking 7 yards to get back to where they made the first fg from.
Still I think it's some of both Wyoming being worse than an advertised and Iowa being very solid, seems like a typical 8-10 win Iowa team that actually has a pretty tough conference schedule this year with only Michigan as the favorable rotated off. It's a team that could have flown up the rankings if they had OSU/Mich/PSU all off the schedule but will still be ranked at some point if I had to guess even with likely a top 20 schedule.
While I think this WY QB may have been overhyped, Park probably isn't significantly better. I think our offensive skill players around the field are better than Wyoming's and like you said it's all about the Oline. Wyoming certainly doesn't have the weapons to score on a good Big Ten team that Iowa looks the part of today.
They were also missing one of their better CB's today. Not saying you're wrong or right, just saying.
True. Plus I haven't see a single ISU snap so I'm pretty much talking out of my backside at this point.
I thought the secondary actually looked pretty good today. Jackson especially played well. Iowa's defensive line and linebackers are going to wreak havoc next weekend unless ISU's offensive line has significantly improved.
Disagree, he looked pretty damn talented. Keep in mind how little he has to work with.
Roethlisberger had 4 INT's against Iowa in 2003. Doesn't matter how good you are if you don't have enough help.
I thought Wyoming's WRs helped Iowa's secondary quite a bit.
They were awful. That said, it's pretty incredible that Iowa held them to 3 points when they had 4 turnovers, 3 of which were in their own territory.
Iowa still has major issues at pass pro and their qb doesn't feel the rush coming. The freshman LT Jackson looked much better than their RT Boettger, who is a revolving door against the pass. Also, Iowa didn't get as much of a pass rush as I thought they would. Not as worried about that after watching them today.
Well, you all are the next opponent and a rival...not sure what we're going to do against all that 22 personnel.
