    F*CK IOWA

    It's not even so much that he ****** up. It's that with replay the mantra has become - rightly, IMO - when it doubt let it play out. Then use replay to sort it out.

    F*CK IOWA

    Because sports rules are completely arbitrary. The ball is pining for the fjords. It has shuffled off this mortal coil. The ball has ceased to be.

    Undead zombie football!

    F*CK IOWA

    So does Brian get Iowa Offensive Assistant Coach of the Year at the banquet? I mean Doyle won Iowa Assistant Coach of the Year a few months after giving guys rhabdo.

    F*CK IOWA

    Miller has been really good on the Iowa Everywhere podcasts. He was a douche in his KXNO days and worse when he got the brief TV deal. He admitted it in one of the early podcasts and even talked openly about how as he leaned into the combative, defensive Hawk talk guy for media it negatively...

    It's rarely called because the situation that necessitates the call rarely happens.

    RIP Suzanne Somers and Piper Laurie

    I remember her mostly from Step-by-Step

    The Coaching Turnaround Has Been Drastic

    I thought Noel did play, but Vaughn didn't. Noel just didn't play well. I agree both those guys are critical.

    Hyperspecificity - love it.

    "Just throw it deep"

    There's no way your coaches "ran plays we knew would would not work." You run plays designed to get 3 yards. When the defense tries to take away the 3 yard play consistently, then you run the similar looking play designed to go 30 yards. Nobody is going to run a play intending to get <=0 yards...

    Has anyone purchased a new vehicle lately, the prices are off the wall.

    Yeah we totally ****** up our nuclear power policy. Nuclear should be our long-term, whole-grid solution for base load until another transformative tech comes along. Supplement with renewables locally as needed.

    Yes you guys are right - you don't actually charge the battery to 100% of it's capacity. When I say "100% charged" I actually mean it's holding the designed amount of charge which will be 90-some percent of the physical capacity. The other thing I forgot to mention is truckers are required to...

    Has anyone purchased a new vehicle lately, the prices are off the wall.

    Ok I lied. One thing we have noticed is that regenerative braking has been nearly 100% efficient. So you use a significant portion of the high voltage batteries' power to climb a hill, then get almost all of it back when you descend the other side. It's not 100%, but it's close enough that it...

    Last bit on trucks. Drivers can be "on duty" for 14 hours. Of those 14 hours, up to 11 can be spent actually driving the vehicle. They have to take minimum length breaks during the day, which could be coordinated fairly easily with charging - just like they already do for fuel stops.

    Yes, just like with personal vehicles the short trips will make the most sense initially.

    How many trucks do you see running 70mph? Most will have their trucks electronically limited to 68mph. Both for fuel and liability. They already have to coordinate with fuel stations, so swapping diesel pumps for megawatt chargers isn't a big change. There aren't that many tag-team truck...

    What Has Changed Since Ohio Loss?

    It's to get the LBs to hesitate. They don't have to flow, just be slowed down a half step. That half step improves angles for everyone. And it looks goofy, but doing a full 270 is more efficient than turning 90 deg one way then going 180 the other direction. Plus you get a better sell on the...

    What Has Changed Since Ohio Loss?

    Here are the Week 6 F+ rankings for our opponents. F+ is a combination of SP+ (based on play-by-play efficiency) and FEI (based on drive efficiency). All the calculations are adjusted for opponent. ISU is currently ranked 42 using this metric. UNI, unranked FCS Iowa - 38 Ohio - 67 Okie State -...
