Football IOWA GAME THREAD

[dmurph24]

So they give the tackle zero help with #94.....and Carter is stinking it up..

 

[Rutgers25]

Bbbbut I was told Carter is the no brainier choice!

Unfortunately, with Art we’d have a couple picks to go along with the awful play.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

Most of the players are Ash recruits. Can't use the Flood excuse anymore.

1000% this.

 

[Salvi's Headband]

This game is over.

 

[BeantownKnight]

I think we all knew what was going to happen. We just weren't exactly prepared to see it happen.

It's like the UMass game but in reverse. We are getting worse as the game goes on.

 

[ashokan]

Just absolutely nothing from the D-line outside of one play by Previlon in the 1st quarter.

Its been a long time sine I saw an O-Line blow a D-line off the ball the way Iowa did on the sneak close to goal. Whoa.

 

[RUScrew85]

Art can do this ****

Well Art might have completed one or two more - to the other team. But yeah Cater looks terrible.

 

[rucoe89]

Last week we had a Heisman candidate at QB. This week we have a Rutgers QB. *Sigh* Its not fun being us.

Schemes are good on O and D, execution is not. Just need to keep it respectable. This drive is big in terms of not giving up more than 3 points. If Iowa gets a touchdown this game will get out of hand quick.

 

[DHajekRC84]

Well you have to say at least we're making a decent showing on special teams and defense. Would be nice to see SOME pressure on Stanley.

Spoke too soon. You would think having ash as HC our dbs would be awesome. Not trailing by 5yards on outs.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

Carter choking

Sitkowski time

 

[Rufaninga]

it's tough Carter as lefty rolls out to Espinoza side.
he's got to go to his right, but that won't be naturally easy.

 

[leftoright]

I could be wrong ...I make no claim to genius....but I think we're gonna get rolled.

next time Lucas mentions food I turn to sound on.

 

[bethlehemfan]

This is sad

 

[DHajekRC84]

Hey john...maybe you want to 1) roll away from thst guy or 2) have a back give the left tackle some help?

 

[Knightmoves]

Time for Sitkowski

Seriously?

 

[cubuffsdoug_rivals]

Our receivers are getting open all over the field. Damn.

Hey what are you talking about?:Wink: There are posters who said our receivers can't get open.

 

[SouthJerseyRU]

Maybe Ash can tweet after the game "@RFootball release me"

 

[scarletbergen]

They are bigger than we are! That’s it!

 

[RUaMoose_rivals]

Here comes the route

 

[R U Crazy]

The only thing that would make this worse is for Antonio Brown to be released.

 

[RUScrew85]

Time for Sitkowski

Worth a try for a series to see what he can do.

 

[Cidsports]

Well Coach Ash is responsible for recruiting that talent but I know what you mean. It will be interesting to see how he does at his next job.

Look at Michigan. Jim Harbaugh is in Year 5. Chris Ash will need time.

Young team at Rutgers. Cupboard wasn't deep, when he arrived.

Coaching staff is likely stabilized now.

At Iowa, not an easy first road game.

 

[Ridge 22]

It's clear we have no offense still again this year. Ignore last week, UMASS is not a fair barametor of anything

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Here comes the lazy tackling because the defense is getting gassed.

 

[RUSK97]

I think we all knew what was going to happen. We just weren't exactly prepared to see it happen.

It's like the UMass game but in reverse. We are getting worse as the game goes on.

Getting worn down. No depth on this team.

 

[RUJMM78]

Football games are won at the line of scrimmage and that is where Rutgers clearly is lacking.Iowa will wear down Rutgers in the second half.

 

[koleszar]

Remember when half of this site thought RU was going to get 6+ wins because we lit up UMass?

There was a thread on this and no one changed their predictions from us being sh*tty. So your fantasy land post holds no water. I thought we might be able to keep this one within 20. But this is going to be another lost cause season.

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Is Singleton hurt? He's not out there as much as he was against UMass.

 

[RutHut_rivals]

Willington playin well.

 

[RUaMoose_rivals]

Carter choking

Sitkowski time

I really thought importing a third string castaway from Texas Tech was going to solve our QB woes

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

That was the closest the D got to legit QB pressure.

 

[King of S]

Going to get ugly.

 

[RUScrew85]

Look at Michigan. Jim Harbaugh is in Year 5. Chris Ash will need time.

At Iowa, not an easy first road game.

You are comparing Harbaugh and Ash? That's a bold move. Ash has consistently been unable to recruit. Harbaugh, as weird as he is, is light years better than Ash at recruiting.

 

[zazoo2002]

Talent is needed at Rutgers. Chris Ash isn't the problem.

Iowa needs to use pass to set up run.

Big drive here!

Yeah, you're right...Ash has no responsibility for the inability to recruit the level of 'talent' necessary to compete in the B1G.

 

[Scarlet_Monster]

Here comes the patented Rutgers timeout on 3rd and long that leads to a easy first down conversion for the opponents.

 

[RUScrew85]

next time Lucas mentions food I turn to sound on.

Is our broadcast team is the worst in history?

"Absolutely."

 

[Knightmoves]

Keep it 14-0 at halftime and RU fans will be happy.

Can McNulty figure a way to score points in the 2nd half?

RU +20 looking suspect at this point.

 

[WhoRU?]

Maryland is playing a ranked team this week too. They had a pretty bad year last fall. How can they be winning?

 

[bac2therac]

"Absolutely."

So true

I assume you mean on defense cause the o line is already owned.
