Cyhawk postgame thread

Chad Lestikow had an instant video reaction and I kid you not this is a quote: “This definitely puts a dent in playoff hopes” when talking about the Hawks.

Might have put that record out of reach, it's like the 9.58 of QB futility.
 
Thanks, that was weird, especially as that was just one of several things that wasn’t explained to the TV audience. Didn’t really seem to make a difference about three plays later, but I wondered why it wasn’t at the 2 1/2.
I don't think that is what happened. Why would any coach decline that? Makes no sense. Is it possible that the penalty was half the distance from the 10, where the returner fielded the punt?

To be honest outside of 1 drive, a couple bad mistakes are what kept this game close. The muffed punt and the penalties giving them fresh downs, really is the only reason this game was not a 2+ score win.

But that is how this game goes. This year we are good enough to handle those types of mistakes. In years past there were more mistakes that we could not come back from.
 

Well per the Big Ten commissioner LAST YEAR's Iowa team should have been an auto bid playoff team.

Zero sarcasm, the Big Ten's playoff structure would have put an Iowa team with ZERO QB SKILL in the playoff.

That really should have been at least a 17-0 lead going into the half.

It seems like once we realized the only way Iowa would win is if we and the refs continued to make mistakes, we got pretty conservative.

Glad it got the W, but we really should beat that Iowa team by 2+ TDs.
