Why is Vance over Colbert laughable?
Epenesa is in an entirely different role and is struggling with it
You’re just trolling all the Hawks on this board at this point.
He said he felt like a baby deer out there and obviously struggled but OK
I'm fine taking out Lattimore and putting Epenesa in there to go along with Enyi, Lima and Bailey
Vance was a monster Saturday
What facets of the game did he struggle in? Just because he didn’t get a sack or two doesn’t mean he wasn’t effective in his role. If one of your d lineman are demanding consistent double teams that’s a good thing for the entire defense.
When you say you played like a baby deer and were only getting doubled 20% of the snaps I think it's fair to say he struggled
UNI's DE that worked Good Jones probably gets the nod over the baby deer unless Epenesa moves back to his specialist role
Working over JGJ is not saying much. He should not be on the field. But keep trolling Iowa.
Not a ton of changes. Stanley solidifies himself at QB. Liked Knipfel's moxie, rest of ISU's OL was shaky at best.

You might want to rewatch the game if you think Knipfel is even remotely close to this list. His pass pro is absolutely horrible and his run blocking is pedestrian. He would not be in the two deep at Iowa. In fact, none of ISU's starters start at Iowa. ISU's OL is as putrid as it was last year. The difference is that Purdy does not have the most talented WR and RB in school history to lean on. He looked like a poor man's Jake Rudock against an average FCS defense. And Pettway? LOL.
We beat out Auburn and Oklahoma State for our transfer WR. They beat out UNI for theirs. It's just jealousy
I wonder if Alaric Jackson will be back for their superbowl hobbling on one leg?
Hoping to get him back for the game in Ann Arbor on Oct 5.
Good news is the OL looked really good without him.
You might want to take your own advice if this is your analysis of Purdy's game.
Hopefully both he and Newell's injuries are minor and they'll both be back this season.
