All Iowa Football Team---Post Bowl Edition

[Brandon]

IMO, he is capable of moving all over and the best end on the field for either team. I believe most of these hawks would give you a dazed look if you started talking press and cut corners (probably don't even know basic strong and free safety differences in their base 4-3 cover 2) so I just go with their best player period. We are already arguing with mental midgets, I try not to get too deep into the weeds with them.

I'm saying I'd take bailey and uwazurike in a 4-3 or 3 man line over any iowa d end. Bailey can move all over. Epenesa maybe better than uwazurike but I haven't seen enough of his run stopping to say that yet.

He's really bad against the run which is why his snaps are limited

 

[CyTwins]

Smith has 25 catches, 328 yards and 2 TD's. Stop it. Eaton, Jones and Milton are all better than him. Even Easley is better than him

How could you possibly disagree with this @ThriceHawk

I don't think Easley is better than Brandon Smith.. not really worth debating though TBH.

Easley has more catches, yards and TD's but OK. If Brandon Smith is the second best WR right now in the state what a pathetic group of WR's we have

Brandon Smith is not the second best WR in Iowa.

I never said he was the 2nd best in Iowa,just better than Easley.

Then why does Easley have much better numbers?

Easley has 398 yards and 3 TD's in 11 games as a senior, Smith has 328 yards and 2 TD's in 10 games as a sophomore. Neither impressive. You serious?

Easley has 44 catches. Smith has 25. Not sure what age has to do with it either considering we're talking about best player now not potential or the future

@ThriceHawk @benjimill - sorry you guys get to stay home while we play during championship week.

 

[benjimill]

Epenesa and Anthony Nelson are the two best DEs in the state and it’s not even close. You guys are delusional.

lol

Then why does Epenesa not start or play many snaps? Derp

 

[CyTwins]

Lololol!!!

 

[benjimill]

Because he has another really good, more senior player in front of him? Derp.

 

[CyTwins]

Because he has another really good, more senior player in front of him? Derp.

If Hesse and Nelson are better than him it doesn't make much sense for you to say he's one of the best two DE in the state. Derp

Who was the defensive player that was crying after the Purdue game because Purdue was just chucking it?
