It was a great game and Jantz was great that day.
That’s why I get a little defensive of ole Steele. Don’t get me wrong, He was terrible. Often. But that day he was just electric and had balls of steel on 4th downs. Pun very much intended.

Am I the only one that doesn’t understand the fascination with Jantz?
I remember he was a decent, serviceable QB, but not exactly a guy I’d hope for in a QB now.
Am I just misremembering it was there not enough talent around him at the time?

He conjures up the outlaw, gunslinger type to me. I think that's the fascination moreso than the results on the field.

I thought Hogan was the next Jesus Christ and he is still at 4th?
Speaking of accuracy problems that's the #1 thing I've heard about him other than his age that gets mentioned a lot (he's a true freshman who's already 20 somehow)

Seems to me the problems at Ioway are equally blameable on the RBs. Both Sergeant and the guy who is "as good as Breece," Tyler Goodson, fumbled deep in Purdue territory.

The porn stache he has makes him look 30 something.

What happened to that thread about how nice it was to not play Iowa this year? While still true, as far as their fans infesting our forums, having seen them play now it looks like we missed out on one of their worst teams in years. And yet looking at the schedule, a team that still can finish 6-2 or 5-3.

They are not winning 6 games. Lol I'd be surprised if they won 5 too.

2 games maybe. Check out their website, they are all choosing their next coach.
Their remaining schedule: vs. NW, vs. MSU, @ Minny, @ PSU, vs. Neb, @ ILL, vs. Wiscy.

Of those, you have two pretty much for sure wins in MSU and ILL. You have two toss ups in NW and Nebraska. And you have have three likely losses in Minny, PSU and Wiscy. It's more likely Iowa goes 4-4 than 5-3.
