Round 2: Iowa vs. Kentucky From Iowa!! Hey Cat Fans!

[rucker4]

Just returned from the Iowa-Iowa State wrestling meet to get the news we play Kentucky for the 2nd year in a row. Haven't been able to read the thread here since the announcement.

BIGGEST NEWS FOR IOWA: Spencer Petras has been confirmed NOT TO PLAY in the game due to a shoulder surgery he's going to have after being hurt in the final regular season game of the year a week ago. Coach Kirk Ferentz announced this at his bowl presser within the hour.

Therefore, you won't be facing college football's worst starter QB in 2022.

And Iowa's backup Alex Padilla not available as he's already entered the portal.

Therefore, Iowa's QB will be third teamer Joey Labas who has NEVER taken a snap yet in college football in his first two years at Iowa.

More to come in a bit. My detailed Iowa report again to all of you like last year.

Making rarely used reserve QBs into heisman candidates is our speciality.

 

[Blueisbest]

We're still waiting on if Levis will play. Not likely but you never know.

So what you are saying is that we have to go up against the back-up to the back-up QB? The way we get shredded by back-up QB's, I can't even contemplate how badly we'll fare against a back-up to the back-up QB. We'll probably be lucky to stay within 4 touchdowns.

The assistant to the assistant QB. He got game.

Lol...welcome back Rucker.
I imagine it will be battle of the backups, and has been said UK has a long history of launching backups into starters.

Good to read from you. Good luck and hope that Kentucky wins.

I'll bet Iowa won the wrestling match. Iowa excels at wrestling. If Levis does not play, this game could be 0-0 in the 7th overtime. Good to have you back on the board.

CMS gets a second round interview.

Iowa fans marvel at our offense under CMS and dream about what could be.......

 

[Johnfarrel]

Texas Tech and Centenary played a game in a driving rainstorm in 1939 that had 77 punts in it, 67 of which were on first down. That record may be in jeopardy.

Iowa pulled it out over Iowa State 18-15. Came down to final HWT match. Iowa now with 18 straight against Iowa State.

Iowa and Penn State dominate wrestling.

He still attends every Iowa meet, sits with his entire extended family in center of the mat row 2. My seats are close to his. He's a LEGEND in Iowa!

Thanks much billoliver. Have no idea how this game goes. Sounds like both fan bases are not happy with the season results.

Iowa fans will be wondering why the 3rd stringer wasn’t playing all year with his performance against us this year. Next year when he’s starting Iowa fans will then know why he wasn’t playing and he will be back to 2nd or 3rd string by game 3.

All backups look like Joe Montana against us. It’s just weird!!!!

Well to give you hope against our offense, our offense is just GOD AWEFUL. Never have I seen such an inept offense in all my years of watching Iowa football. Remember, we scored 7 points in the first game on two safeties and a FG.

I even shared some amazing and pathetic Iowa offensive football stats for this year on your board to give you guys a laugh.

Yikes.

If Will Levis doesn't play, this could be a game that ends with a final score of 3 to 0 after triple overtime.

In that scenario, I'd give the edge to Iowa considering the struggles we've faced in the kicking game all season. Hell, just making the extra points has been interesting at times.

It will be interesting to see what ads are used during that game. You would think only companies that have products and services geared toward people who enjoy boredom would be willing to spend ad money on this game. The Music City Bowl, sponsored by Chia Pet and Mobility Scooter.

I am hard on the Iowa program-- more than I should be. We were 79-25 I think overall since 2015 before this season started so we've had some great success. This year though was underachieving, and the pathetic play of the offense just made it feel even worse.

Points Allowed:

Iowa - 6th 14.42 PPG
Kentucky - 12th 19.08 PPG

Points Scored:

Iowa - 122nd 17.42 PPG
Kentucky - 104th 22.08 PPG

Just doing the math, this could end up in a 0-0 tie.

Great, so we get to play against the second coming of Tom Brady? The Iowa offense will morph into the Chiefs when we play on NYE.

 

[Corbiniter]

Don’t you worry, we’re about to make your third stringer look like an absolute star. This kid is about to be set for life. If it’s a backup, UK will make sure to speed that trajectory to NFL star on its way

I'm not understanding the lack of confidence in the UK defense. Your defense is quite solid isn't it?

You don’t understand; our defense is solid........that is....until the backup QB comes in.....and plays like Tom Brady. We’ve been burned by backup QBs far too much. It might be PTSD, but it’s a real thing.
