I don't care who is QB. How about we create a 3-4 play TD drive and some easy/cheap scores? How about we consistently score 30+ points to go along with our way above average Defense. Why does the Offense look so irritating? Why do we have to go on 12-14 play drives, that include a lot of short passes and Breece Hall going for 3 yards?
Big plays are hard to come by against strong, fundamentally sound defenses. There is an increased chance of a turnover. If the big plays don't work, you put the defense right back on the field. Without a ball-control offense, it's hard to maintain a lead.

People really out here mad that this staff is *choosing* to not score at will in 3-4 plays, and turning down cheap/easy scores?

Saying we're playing conservative, and not taking shots? I'd argue we had control of the momentum (aside from Iowa beginning to win field position battle) up until our first turnover, which was a 45+ yard pass 1on1 that got intercepted.

as in a debate you might have while you are high

Iowa and Wisconsin aren't bluebloods.
