Right now mistakes are killing you, namely the ten pass attempts prior to the final minute possession.

No real reason to throw the ball against the Ole Miss defense.

Edward64 · 10-09-2021, 01:39 PM

Very entertaining game. 31-31 the offenses are having a field day.

cuervo72 · 10-09-2021, 01:51 PM

No defense at all being played in Oxford.

cuervo72 · 10-09-2021, 01:54 PM

(Not TOO Much better in Austin.)

JonInMiddleGA · 10-09-2021, 01:54 PM

For as much as I despise Kiffy and struggle to tolerate anything good happening for him, you simply do NOT let Snoop Conner see daylight. If you do, bad things happen.

3rd quarter showed why he's one of the most popular players to go through Ole Miss in a while

Brian Swartz · 10-09-2021, 01:57 PM

I feel sorry for Rutgers a bit. They probably could have gotten some more momentum going this year if they didn't start the Big Ten with what is probably going to be three of their four toughest matchups of the year coming in a row.

GrantDawg · 10-09-2021, 01:57 PM

Treylon Burks for Heisman.

GrantDawg · 10-09-2021, 02:01 PM

I haven't gotten as loud watching a Georgia game this year as I have for the Razorbacks in this game.

cuervo72 · 10-09-2021, 02:31 PM

I mean, what the hell coverage was that?

Edward64 · 10-09-2021, 02:46 PM

51-52 and Hogs going for 2. I like this.

We can't stop Ole Miss.

JPhillips · 10-09-2021, 02:47 PM

Can Sark lose his job for one half of really awful football?

Edward64 · 10-09-2021, 02:48 PM

KJ should have run it.

Good game nevertheless.

JonInMiddleGA · 10-09-2021, 02:51 PM

Can't say Ole Miss-Arkansas lacked for excitement.
(Unless, I suppose, you like defense.)

Entertaining game to watch for sure

bronconick · 10-09-2021, 03:05 PM

Those two are going to die in the SEC with these trash-fire defenses.

Ole Miss and Arkansas are considered top 20 teams so I'm guessing they'll be ok.

GrantDawg · 10-09-2021, 03:31 PM

They were arguing about the Smoke Monday penalty, but that is the definition of what they are trying to get players to stop doing with the targeting rule. He launch himself with the crown of his helmet leading. That's how you break your neck.

miami_fan · 10-09-2021, 03:32 PM

This is not a criticism or a commendation, just an observation. The Iowa vs. PSU game does not look like the same sport compared to OU vs Texas game.

JPhillips · 10-09-2021, 03:33 PM

This season would be super exciting if it weren't for Alabama being head and shoulders better than everyone else.

I hate the rule, I hate the outcome in this situation but it was an absolute no doubt call by rule.

And I mean literally ZERO doubt possible. It looked like an instructional video for what the rule prohibits.

JPhillips · 10-09-2021, 03:56 PM

If Iowa gives up another TD here the game might be over.

NobodyHere · 10-09-2021, 04:06 PM

Someone might want to check on tarcone

Jas_lov · 10-09-2021, 04:45 PM

This Iowa game really changed on a dime. Lots of injuries changing the momentum.

HerRealName · 10-09-2021, 04:47 PM

I like how Iowa promotes their fans waving hello to sick kids but then their fans boo every time an opposing player gets injured.

Jas_lov · 10-09-2021, 04:49 PM

Iowa shoulda went for it on 4th and 2 in Penn State territory. The Penn State backup QB has done nothing.

bob · 10-09-2021, 05:18 PM

North Carolina was the biggest fraud of the season

Not so fast there my friend .. Clemson certainly has a valid claim to that.

A&M would probably have a claim too but I feel like the QB situation gives them an out.

HerRealName · 10-09-2021, 06:33 PM

Iowa's punter is the MVP.

.

Although they’ve been eliminated from a playoff berth, Clemson still has a reasonable chance of winning the ACC and a New Years’ Six bowl bid. UNC, a preseason top ten ten, will have to set its sights on the Duke’s Mayo Bowl.

Yeah, that Will Levis transfer really hurt PSU. Roberson was really bad.

tarcone · 10-09-2021, 06:53 PM

What a crowd. PsU had 7 false starts and 3 in a row on one series. Its the loudest Ive heard it in a while. Very cool.

Our defense Did what it has done, get rid of the starting QB. I dont think PsU win easily if their QB hadnt gotten absolutely crushed by the best MLB in the game in Jack Campbell. Iowa knows how to adjust to a running QB. This defense is top notch.

I wonder if we get a 1st place vote?

If you win the game then, YES

I see that Iowa won. Congratz tarcone. Hoprfully your heart survived the match-up.

Nah. SEC monopoly on those until either Alabama or Georgia loses. If Iowa had won 31-3 or something then maybe. They'll have to be content with waiting for their next chance to make noise, which might not be till the Big Ten championship against whomever.

Cincinatti has to be ticked at Texas right about now.

tarcone · 10-09-2021, 07:34 PM

I was nervous before the game. But pretty confident during the game. That is Iowa football. Win ugly. We have a great defense that is helped by having a great punter and a great kicker. In the big games the opposing offense never has had really good field position and most likely bad.

That is exactly how Iowa has won all season.

JonInMiddleGA · 10-09-2021, 07:36 PM

Bama down by 10. It won't last, but it is cool for the moment.

Placed one of my biggest bets in a long time on Bama team total +34.5. The old bank roll may take a hit.

Also have the first half total over 34.5 so that INT was a double kick in the nuts.

Brian Swartz · 10-09-2021, 08:01 PM

Michigan doing everything they can to avoid scoring touchdowns. Just feels like the kind of game where that could come back and bite them.

HerRealName · 10-09-2021, 08:01 PM

The officiating in the Michigan - Nebraska game is comically terrible. Every play needs to be reviewed at this point.

HerRealName · 10-09-2021, 08:07 PM

They blow yet another call in Michigan's favor that needs reviewed on the first play of the next drive. It's a clown show.

GrantDawg · 10-09-2021, 08:12 PM

A&M is getting to the Bama quarterback on blitzes. You don't see that happen often.

Jas_lov · 10-09-2021, 08:40 PM

What the hell was Saban doing? They could have gotten the ball back at midfield with 1 minute left.

GrantDawg · 10-09-2021, 08:44 PM

I am wondering is the high sack totals bad blocking, or is the qb just not getting the ball out as fast as the usual Bama qb's do? Jones was so good at hitting the uncovered guy on the blitz. Maybe Young just doesn't have that same quick read and release.

HerRealName · 10-09-2021, 08:46 PM

On that Michigan pass interference at the end of the half, did they explain whey the spot was placed at the 3? The LOS was like the 15 yard line. They called the interference at the 3 and spot it there instead of half the distance. I didn't have the sound on that game at the time.

JPhillips · 10-09-2021, 08:51 PM

Wasn't Blake Martinez the QB the last time Nebraska won a National Championship?
