Final from last night (Thursday, September 18th):

Rice 28, Charlotte 17

I didn’t see any of this game, but suffice it to say, both teams looked better than PSU.

I'll take 2 fanbases that deserve each other for $200, Alex.

I can only imagine the stench in pissthataway tonight. Living in NEW. JERSEY. , I know all too well how bad it is with just rutgres there. For f*ck’s sake.

Calling the iowa-rutgres game: Conor “The” Onion and Mark Helfrich

 

[Relayer]

Are we in the Twilight Zone? Did these announcers just say Rutgers is eyeing a BIG Championship and a playoff birth? On top of that, they labeled Iowa as a "playoff hopeful". Who wrote this introduction to the broadcast?

It's the 4th game of the season... everyone's goals and dreams are still achievable.

Opening KO in Iowa - Rutgers (it's actually 104 yards):

 

[BobPSU92]

Opening KO in Iowa - Rutgers:

rutgres struck back quickly. Their passing game is working with Kadillacanus. 7-7.

One of the announcers said after the rutgres TD that iowa has had “one of the best defenses in the country forever”. For f*ck’s sake.

I guess I better get some tix for Nov 29th game

Everyone except Rutgres...
And Iowas offense

[Nittering Nabob]

Ferentz’ second hand gum.

I hate Iowa and respect Schianno.

I thought this was supposed to be a low scoring game

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[BobPSU92]

Not much defense tonight.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

I was expecting more B1G biased officiating in favor of the winningest coach in B1G history.

Perhaps they’re saving it for the second half.

iowa just wants to complete a forward pass. they can do it.

 

[cntblvitsbutter]

Wow, Iowa's and RU's offenses are pretty good, which is to say, their defenses suck.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

Rutgres’ d-line is undersized relative to Iowa’s O-line and their secondary grabs more than scUm’s.

[cntblvitsbutter]

Iowa's secondary reminds me of some of Paterno's worsts.

 

[BCS PSU]

Rutgres’ d-line is undersized relative to Iowa’s O-line and their secondary grabs more than scUm’s.

Their defense will fade as the season proceeds when they start playing against teams that can play power football. Also, unless Rutgers is this good at passing, it appears as if Iowa’s secondary is pretty weak.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Rutgers lines up for a FG, then false starts to move it back 5 yards, and then the kicker doinks the kick off the upright.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

Poor kid tore his ACL

 

[Nittering Nabob]

I noticed this when Iowa was playing Iowa State. Whenever Iowa spreads their OL they’re very vulnerable to gap breakdowns.

rutgres linebacker: Dariel “Haywood” Djabome

 

[Nittering Nabob]

I can’t believe how much Iowa’s DB’s hold on every pass play.

 

[creamery freak]

The 1-1 Oklahoma St team that Oregon curb stomped is going to lose to 1-2 Tulsa 19 - 12. The Oregon win not looking so impressive now.

 

[Nothing Special]

I can’t believe how much Iowa’s DB’s hold on every pass play.

Wanted to post this. You beat me to it. It really is unbelievable how much they hold and commit pass interference.

 

[Bones80]

Didn’t PS have a cb portal to Rutgres? Cam ? Guy who sat down against ND giving up a big play.

 

[ApexLion]

Is Rutgres grabbing defeat from the jaws of victory again?

 

[BobPSU92]

Yep. Cam Miller. He played for rutgres tonight.
