Wut? You've got to be kidding me. Iowa has caught a ton of breaks over the years.

One variable you may have left out - sometimes a team has a kicker who sucks at PATs...Sure, but the PAT is *always* the higher percentage play, and the chance has to be at least 50% to make a 2-point conversion worth trying at all (unless it's a situation where you have no choice). It's not worth the risk at that stage of the game. I thought it was a bad idea before they snapped it, and I knew as soon as it failed that it was going to come back to haunt them. There is absolutely no reason to chase points 5 minutes after halftime, unless you're a coach that goes for two most of the time.
I noticed the new job when I spotted you yesterday. Hope things start looking up for you soon in the job market...although being an AD photographer might get you close-up looks at some of your teams. That may or may not be a good thing!It's been busy. I've been working full time in a call center to pay the bills (and hating every second of it), taking a couple classes a semester at Iowa (went back in 2016 because my journalism degree wasn't getting me work), and working part time as a photographer for the athletic department (so my venting here needs to stay between us ). I just don't have as much free time as I used to, but I try to check back in around here at least one in a blue moon.
Epitome of victim hood reached.This person lives in a bubble, right?
Maybe Norte Dame.....There is not a fan base in the country that has seen their team slime out and win more games that they had no business winning than Iowa.

Calling out your back 7 when you couldn't do your own job is a bad look IMO. Sounds like the rumors of a fractured locker room could be true
You are probably right. **** them if they think they have it bad.
If you watch them at all, you know how they always have half a dozen freak plays bounce in their direction. Two years ago WI QB tripped over his pulling guards foot and fumbled at the 5 right at the end of the game when they were going in to score the winning TD. Several times I have seen them fumble and the ball bounces right to one of their guys. That crap is not falling their way this year, so now they are the victim.
