    Cade did not peak at Michigan. He’s only gonna get better. He’s our guy.

    Even with how it was a tale of two half’s the one thing that I liked both half’s was Cade didn’t look hurt… last year was clear form the first game he was off an injury.
    I’m fine with things taking time, in Lester I trust

    Love the second half effort, but let’s not forget the opponent. No disrespect against Illinois state. Our line is still very average and doesn’t handle blitzes very well. Let’s take a deep breath and see how the next two games play out. McNamara settled down in the second half and trusted his abilities finally. Hope this game shows the big step next game that it should show. Go hawks.

    Thing to look at in comparison Big 10. How many big 10 top 25 teams had a overwhelming first half?

    “Humming” is a strong adjective based on one good half against an FCS team 😂

    Something I haven't heard anyone mention is that the D didn't score any of those points. Not very Iowa like. I thought everyone showed out Saturday and I expect, as long as Cade can avoid the pass rush we will see more of our receivers finding a way to get open to help their QB make a play. That happens all the time for the great teams. The QB gets a lot of time to throw and the D can't keep them covered that long and they pull out a play or throw it in the stands. That's how it should work when the first play gets blown up. ISU played a good half but Iowa got the thing figured out, thanks to our new OC and took over. That is what his system is capable of and our players are now getting the thing down. I think we may have some growing pains yet to come but what must the rest of the conference think of Iowa finding an O. Must be some nervous teams out there. By the way, did you see the Nebraska QB. They are going to be a team to contend with going forward.

    That second half was the best case scenario. Hopefully any luck gets converted into confidence.

    Having a healthy O-line with some adequate depth can work miracles for a bad offense.

      @jeffreypierce1440 20 днів тому

      Add a good QB and even Brian could produce a good offense. In retrospect we should realize the problems were not all on him.

    QB position is locked up. Coach Ferentz doesn't play around with rotating QB.
