Ferentz's Emphasis on the ISU Game

[NWICY]

Off topic but the most incredible stats I noticed yesterday was from Rutgers' QB.
2-16, 8yds, 4 int.

That is quite stat line. Ouch!

Amazing

So was it Frost screwing that game up? That’s the prevailing opinion...not kicking the fg on overtime.

I thought they had some bonehead penalties.

Yeah. From what I've seen of them this year they're just really undisciplined. Changing a culture isn't easy as CMC will tell you in year one here but it never looked as bad as it does for Frost

Frost is the guy who reported his stuff stolen and hadn’t even looked in the garage. He is not a details kinda guy.

Now that you Hawkeye fans saw Purdy live what do you think of him? @iahawks @dexterhawk @Legend Hawk @benjimill

I didn’t watch, I was busy watching real football, not a criminally overrated and soft West Virginia team.

How do you know WVU Is overrated and soft if you have never seen them play?

So you watched criminally overrated and soft Wisconsin instead? Woof.

They haven’t played anyone- their metrics showed they should be ranked closer to the 20’s than top 5-10. And if you get pushed around by an awful Iowa State OL, you are as soft as it gets.

I watched an underrated and top five (IMO) Michigan team, yes.

Whose metrics before the game said they should be closer to the 20s?

Nah, Wisconsin just isn’t that good. That defense is surprisingly bad for them.

I'd love to hear this as well

How are they winning games if they're so soft?

Sagarin has West Virginia at 19, which is about right.

 

[JP4CY]

Sagarin has West Virginia at 19, which is about right.

What were they before the game?

 

[CyTwins]

Sagarin has West Virginia at 19, which is about right.

So them being ranked 13th is criminally overrated? Lol!

Most computer rankings had them in the mid teens and their defensive efficiency numbers aren’t good.

Nah, Wisconsin just isn’t that good. That defense is surprisingly bad for them.

Agree that Wisconsin isn’t that good- more of a borderline Top 25 team this year. But Michigan is as good as anyone in the country other than Alabama IMO.

West Virginia's defensive efficiency was 19th going into the ISU game and I don't know any computer rankings that had them in the mid teens until Purdy beat them
