There is exactly one person in the entire fucking universe that thinks Brown should start over heck.
It isn't even about if Heck is better or should start to me, who fucking cares because they both suck.

What is maddening is Kirk's moving target logic is idiotic. We all have eyes, we can all see that Hank sucks AND is also hurt and made even worse plays in that game.

Heck immediately pulled, Hank never even considered pulling him. It makes zero sense.

It made total sense. He was hoping Hank would be the hot hand when it was obvious heck wasn’t. What would’ve been the point of going back to heck. It made sense, didn’t work cuz they both suck and neither had their A game

Stank is gonna prove himself to be what we thought he was and, unlike last week, Kirk isn’t gonna do a goddamn thing about it.

I’ll be honest I don’t see Beth fucking around with this approach to offense. Kirk better be careful.

With one second to throw and no run game, perhaps chucking up 30 fades and hoping for the best will work. 4 PI's , 4 lucky catches and a couple of interceptions. Might get a TD and/or a field goal or two. It could be as ugly as that 2017 game, except without Josh Jackson.

Kirk can't help himself. In his PC, like every meathead football coach ever, mere mortals cannot understand the intricacies of Iowa's offense and exactly what is expected of each QB..

In fairness, it seems obvious at this point that Kirk genuinely has no fucking idea either.

He’s always tried to hide behind a guise of being a simple football mind to avoid accountability, but in reality he’s incredibly petty and arrogant.

I’m a glutton for punishment so watched the I am a giant douche in 60 replay and Brown could’ve run for about 100 yards plus if he just would’ve pulled the ball on the read option a ran. It was wide open. Should’ve also kept throwing slants as they were wide open as well.

Have you emailed this analysis to Kirk yet?

Lol, that was fucking depressing. "The next 5 games all depend on QB play because you will no longer be able to run again as every team will either load the box or has the d-line to stop you given your starting RB is out for the season."

The only way for Iowa to win is for the QB to hit the WR's down the field vertically. Hank can't hold the d-line of the other team like Brendan Sullivan and Gronowski could because he can't run and his mechanics aren't good, so you have to just pray he can hit multiple one play scores down the field. Wisconsin built to murder him on defense.

It seems on Offense that Wisconsin decided their QB sucks throwing but can run, so now all triple option and only passing like 14 times per game and limiting his turnovers.

This team is fucked. 7-5 finish.

Oh, and even better they point out that Iowa's more likely path to winning this game and every other game is to just fucking shut it down as much as possible to not suffer any turnovers and hope the defense and special teams can win a low scoring slugfest. A bunch of 12-9 or 16-13 games the rest of the year.

They both point out while that may work, it's going to fuck them yet again in recruiting a QB worth a shit or any WR's at all.

Good fucking lord. Everyone is retarded. The Wisconsin Badgers are the 85 Bears defense. Regardless of a game against UCLA where their backup threw for 260 yards and they rushed for 120. We’re fucked!!!! Kirk has dragged his balls over Fickells face. Let’s see what happens

We going to just gloss over that these guys also said Minny was going to be a cakewalk and their defense couldn’t handle Iowa’s rushing game? It’s almost like shit doesn’t always go according to plan, no matter how things look on paper.

I do think Iowa fist fucking Minnesota and Wisconsin the past couple years has those teams extra motivated this year. Same with Nebrantska. A lot of times that extra motivation doesn’t mean shit, but it does seem to matter eventually at some point. Think that was the case last week. Hopefully not the rest of the way though.

Minnesota had nothing to do with Iowa losing that game ffs
Ehh their defense in particular was going extra hard at the ball and trying to cause fumbles. Not like it was way different than any other team, but seemed more focused since it actually worked and was out of the norm for Iowa RBs to fumble that many in a game.
