The infamous holding call

I didn't watch you guys much during conference play last year, but Purdy is confusing to me.
He was amazing in conference play.
Against Drake? Not so hot.
Against Washington State? God awful.
Against UNI? Pedestrian.
Against Iowa? Better but made crucial mistakes - that was a winnable game against Iowa's struggling secondary.

Why is he so good vs conference opponents but not good vs anybody else? The sample size is getting too big to ignore. Either he's been unlucky 4 straight times, or maybe big 12 defenses make average players look good.


How anyone can even include Drake in anything is beyond me.. it is incredible that people forget thatcwas the absolute worst weather conditions I’ve ever experienced at Trice..by far.

We are talking brutal winds and it raining ice not to mention you couldn’t stop while running you had to slide to stop..

Drake game for a QB lmfao.. dude.

WASU bowl game Purdy threw ball very well accept 1 pass.. 1. Other pick wasn’t his fault really.

Purdy was most accurate freshman QB not just last year but ever..ever in the history of college fball for Freshmen QBs.. like all time dude.

Hawk fans have been desperately trying to make the Drake game a"thing" ever since that day in a feeble attempt to belittle our season... What ever you do, don't bring up Augustana!

I totally agree with you, but a lot of posters on here also didn't give Stanley much slack when he was playing in 40-60 mph winds against Maryland last year or against BC on a skating rink either.

Yeah the Maryland and BC games are why we think Fat Stanley sucks...

Not really... I'm pretty sure Lieutenant Dan could have picked up those yards...
Well, to be fair, Lt. Dan did have...

...magic legs.
 
Well that AND the fact that he's 3-0 against you.

Yeah, I'm not going to put a ton of stock into that... 2017 we were still figuring things out defensively. Last year and this year Stanley looked pretty average against us so there's that too. It would have been fun watching the Iowa faithful turn on him if we wouldn't have dropped 2 interceptions...
 
Seems like one team was trying to pull out all the stops to beat Iowa. Two trick plays including unveiling Jones as a great thrower. Seems that would have been more wise to use in a game they care more about.
So you know Matt Campbell's remaining game plan? Good to know.

Rose had that one I thought for sure. If he gets that, who knows how the game turns out. Still can't believe he dropped it. Has he had any interceptions?
