All Iowa Football Team---Post Bowl Edition

People on here don't blindly argue against any pro-Iowa point. They argue against you because your points are almost exclusively stupid, your style is douchey, and you're never funny. There's a reason people like Gonzo and Dex and it isn't because they don't argue pro-hawk points.

I know trying to point out your idiocy is a waste of time, but I might as well do it for my own sake. On they plays you point out the ball isn't released for about 3 seconds, and even more. Second, look at where the receivers line up and where they end up catching the ball. They are running actual routes with actual moves and beating actual coverage. Obviously it's not good coverage in those three cases, but to claim it is similar to Easley's TD is beyond moronic.

In comparison, upon the snap, or the time it takes Easley to run 8 yards, he runs a straight line and is 8 yards open. It is literally impossible to blow a coverage any worse considering he is not over a blitzer. To make matters worse, MSU's front 7 was completely dominating Iowa in the run game and there is zero reason for a DB to be peeking in the backfield or sucked in to play action. So no, none of the plays you point out account for anything close to the level of blown coverage as Easley's touchdown.Claiming they are the same thing is just explicitly stating that you don't know **** about football.

Lol, so there are varying levels of blown coverage now? If a blown coverage results in a TD, there is no difference.
 
So Stanley benefitted from only 1.4 blown coverages per game, and Purdy 3 per game? Sounds about right considering Stanley faced some of the best defenses in the country and Purdy played in the defense-optional Big XII.

I watched half of his highlights from half of the season so no. I'm shocked you couldn't see on the highlight video it said mid season highlights. Shocked I tell you.

Stanley's was probably closer to at least a half a dozen per game

Didn't Michigan and Michigan State have the best defenses in the B1G besides Iowa?
Hell, West Virginia gave up less yards per game than 3 B1G defenses that Iowa got to go against.
 
Can't think of any blown coverages or missed tackles when Stanley tried to run the ball. But then again watching Stanley run is like watching grass grow without any sunlight.

We’ve been over this before- Stanley faced seven Top 40 defenses this season (including two Top 10 defenses). For comparison’s sake, Purdy faced zero.

But Stanley was going against blown coverages at least a half a dozen times per game compared to 3 on average for Purdy. Yikes

Was one of the top 10s Miss St?
Because you keep talking about B12 and B10 defenses and ISU cant help who the Alamo selects to play.
Whose website are you using for this?

Yes, it includes Mississippi State. Big XII fans like to use bowl results in an attempt to show that their defenses aren’t hot garbage, so why shouldn’t I be able to use bowl games to prove my point?

You must follow a lot of B12 material on your twitter.
 
Nope, just follow a few DMR reporters that retweet Iowa State stuff on occasion, as well as friends who have the misfortune of being Iowa State fans that do the same.
You said B12 fans and are only using your obsessed opinion about ISU. Got it.
 
You guys should feel bad for Benji. No matter how hard he tries he just can't seem to get away from Iowa State/Big 12 news on social media.

You are so full of crap Benji! Not according to the NCAA he didn't. What are you doing just pulling stats out of thin air or are the NCAA stats not good enough for you. Go back to HN where you belong. What a troll job yet again.

Mississippi State and Wisky are the only ones in the Top 30. You didn't even play Michigan or MSU. Your statement is worthless as usual.

His numbers were off but still, Stanley faced 5 defenses in the top 40 of total D, Purdy faced 0. Stanley faced 3 of the top 25 passing Ds, Purdy didn't face one passing D in the top 50.

So of the 5 top 40, 2 of them weren't B1G teams then, correct? So that leaves 3. Brock also didnt start against TCU, which that link lists as #24.

Total defense? Lmao! I’m using S&P+, which is an opponent-adjusted defensive efficiency rating. Total defense...LOL.

It's interesting about Iowa's defense. Not saying their base was very good, but boy, you let Wiskey's Alex Horninbrook go clutch on you, ya gotta wonder. And if anyone's wondering, yes, I'd take Drake's QB over Hornibrook.

I think I only saw Iowa vs. PSU and their bowl game and whoever they were playing in the bowl game had some of the worst QB play I've seen, and it wasn't because of coverage.

Yeah, Stanley played against 5 of the top 40 total Ds and 3 of the top 25 passing Ds.

In terms of passing Ds, Purdy played against #128, #117, #110, #106, #92, #91, #83, and #56 (WSU, bowl game). That doesn't include Drake which would obviously would be way below #129.

In terms of total D Purdy played against #112, #108, #85, #81, #74, #71, #67, and #42 (WSU, bowl game). That doesn't include Drake.
