I kind of liked how the mildcats kept getting slivers of hope in the second half. Also, I don't believe I've ever seen a review of a loose ball scrum before.

Iowa played the game they needed to in the second half knowing NW couldn’t exactly throw the ball. Would have ended up 24-3 without a shitty roughing the passer call.

Kind of like Washington, Purdue has a very good QB and not much else. Keep him in check and we should win easily.

A little shitty weather would make it fun

Second game I’ve watched on TV at that new stadium. Both games were, I think, sold out but with an empty stadium.

I'd be interested to hear from those who went, how full was it?

Capacity is 35000. How many were truly there?

This is going to be something that every opponent focuses on now (for good reason). Absolutely have to knock that shit off.

Great W otherwise though.
Somewhat interesting given that it felt like early in Kirk’s career… one or two of those and you were done for the season… And it feels like you’ve had a couple guys do it over and over this year

Tough to deal with when almost everyone is doing it.

Unless you want to take your chances with the young guns

He’s not really that good. He misses a ton of easy throws. He just throws it a ton. Their defense would be the worst defense in a 1A Iowa high school conference .

I find it funny that whoever it is that stands next to the kicker when Iowa kicks off puts on a different number every time they kick off. He went out in a 55 once. A 76 the next time.

James’ punt returns would be in the same category. Feels like he’s made at least 10 stupid plays this year that in any other season under Kirk would’ve had him done for the season after two.

The great thing about this game is nobody but Iowa fans and the very few Northwestern fans watched this game. Everyone is going to just look at the 24-10 score and say "oh, nice blowout on the road by Iowa and that's more than they usually score."
