Just unbelievable how consistent this has been.

At the half, Iowa has 16 first downs, NU has 5.
Iowa 4 possessions, 4 scores.
NU 4 possessions, 0 scores.
Iowa didn't score an offensive touchdown in the past 3 games, they have 2 already.
And nothing changes for Pat Fitzgerald.

How could I expect them to put 11 players out there?! On every play?!?

Iowa averages 225 yards per game. Already have over 200 in just first half versus the JON shit-show.

Tired of hearing how Fitz doesn’t want to fire JON in season because it would be humiliating. Does he care about our players? Hell it would be less embarrassing for JON if he was fired versus allowing more tape of his defenses to exist

Watched this game in the hopes that NU could pull out a win, however ugly.

I’m just not seeing it. Not even sure why I bothered watching.

One holding penalty derails our entire offense. Meanwhile Iowa’s maligned offense gets penalized and slices through the JON D like a hot knife through butter.

Clean house. Fire JON. Fire Springer. And put others on notice. (Yes, I know I’m just shouting into the void.)

We stinks, and this team may not compete in a game the rest of the year. Befuddling.

Will share the video when it’s available. I wonder if his play is improving in South Bend.

Nothing is going right for NU now. I think it speaks to the depth of the problems when you look at #75. Totally overmatched. NU took him as a transfer. Apparently has no one better. How can a program succeed when you can’t develop an offensive line that can be competent. I see nothing from skill positions either but the OL and DL just look completely overmatched.

Today is the day we finally get to see which head coach has screwed their team more with an awful coordinator hire.

Will Kirk Ferentz’s nepotism rise above Pat Fitzgerald’s blind allegiance to his friend?

Will the sport’s worst offense score on the most confused defense?

The suspense is killing me.

Sullivan needs to be able to feel the pressure and get rid of the ball. Sigh.

The team appears to have gotten even worse?

We are committed to giving the sick kids something they haven’t seen much of this season, an Iowa offensive explosion.
It is pretty cool waving to the kids.

After OSU went up 10–0 early, Penn State has roared back to go up 14-10 after 2 consecutive td’s. Ohio State pass defensive looks vulnerable. Interesting game.

Our goal posts remain
Directly in front of us
Whadda we do now

I am happy to inform all of you that, incredibly, all our goals remain technically in front of us

it took a long time to get this done, but there's our squad for 2022-23

The women just knocked off number 12 Purdue in an exciting five set match. Two or three more conference wins should put them in the NCAA tourney.

Season ticket holder pre-sale, anyone else notice this?

It looks like they're offering season or per game access to the hospitality room on the second floor for all you can eat and open bar before/during/after the game.

I'd looked in there several times over the course of the last season, wondering what was going on.

If it's a per ticket price, it looks sooper steep, but it becomes a bit more (sports arena expensive) reasonable if it covers both my seats. Somehow I doubt that's the setup.

Posted this elsewhere, but this thread is an extremely accurate breakdown of the JON defense. Read the whole thing, there are 6 posts and includes clear video support. Kudos @westlotpirates

Indiana, Maryland, Purdue, and Wisconsin are off this week.

Both top 15 heading into the weekend! With Lipsky playing well and Luke Donald captaining the Ryder Cup, NU golf ⛳️ is trending up ⬆️

I haven't watched a lot of NU football (which is good, because it hasn't been very watchable....).

We don't seem to be able to attack with intermediate or deep passes.

Is it:

1. QB's who can't deliver the ball deep?
2. WR's who can't gain enough separation and get open?
3. OL can't give the QB enough time to throw deep?

Our offense is pretty easy to defend- stuff the box because you know it's going to be a run or very short pass.

Will @CatManTrue host a tailgate at Rutgers?
