Why the fuck do we play this game every few years? I absolutely hate it
Because all big 4 teams schedule cupcakes to build its resume? Because scheduling tough opponents prior to conference play doesn't seem to be rewarded at the end of the season?

In 37 career games Ostrenga has averaged 1.3 catches per game at 6.7 yards per catch

Probably because we never threw to him. Don't remember his number at all.
He was the target of the 3rd down pass that was tipped at the line of scrimmage and if it wasn’t for former Hawkeye Caden Crawford getting his hand on that ball, it was going to be an interception returned the other way for a touchdown.

He’s only run 5 yard outs for going on 5 years now so I can see why ISU jumped it.

Overall Lester has been a huge upgrade but the continued 3 yd out routes & lack of PA, particularly boots is causing me to get dangerously close to crossing my arms

Considering the weather, injuries and the fact this is a lower level team I expect this to be much uglier than anyone wants or expects.
It might be the lock of the year on the under & UNI cover

41-3. Still unclear which QB is likeliest to lead us to victory in Ann Arbor. Both play several series, Heck looks slightly better this time. Braedyn (sp?) Jackson stakes a compelling claim as RB2 with Moulton sitting out after a series or 2. Manson looks great in mop up duty.

I hope Hecklinski gets a chance throws 4-5 TDs and celebrates with the crowd after each one

and that decision may or may not correctly assess likelihood of generating the most wins. he’s certainly not got a perfect track record in that regard.

The only way Heck plays is late in the game in a blowout, which is the typical procedure for most teams.

We seriously still talking about giving them equal shots at this point? Did you not watch last week?

Feels like we will be going into week 4 and still not knowing if we have a good team

That’s true. Based on what we saw last week, I think many of us have our doubts. We all know Iowa often, especially that last number of years, looks terrible in that game. I personally feel they looked a special kind of terrible this year against a team predicted to win four games. Honestly, but for a tipped pass that broke up a llikely pick six, Iowa very likely loses that game.

Hank is a much better athlete than I was expecting. Come to find out his dad was an all-American soccer player.

If the first three conference games don’t ruin him I think he’s going to be a good qb.

That near pick six might have cost us the game if it happened but on the flip side if he keeps his feet where he was just barely tripped up on a couple of those QB runs they might have scored a couple more times.

The ANF guys were extremely complimentary of isu prior to the game. That was a clue that the game was going to be more difficult than expected. Could they still really suck? Yes and I hope that’s the case. But it also could be that isu is quite a bit better than the national media thought they’d be and Iowa beat them in a typical early season cyhawk matchup.
