Haha, if you want to see what looks like fake injuries watch DeSanto vs. RBY. Every time RBY had a cradle going DeSanto was injured. He probably was injured, but it sure seemed convenient how the injuries flared up as he was probably about to be pinned.
No dog in this fight, but we lost a Heisman Candidate RB to a non-contact injury. For years, I remember coaches telling players to stay down if they thought they were injured. That short clip doesn't tell much except that a member of the Iowa coaching staff is assuming something he has no way of knowing.
Perhaps some of the posters have never played a down of football?
He is called “the player integrity coach”
It reminded me of watching a team where the fanbase does not know how to act, and do not know how to deal with any success. It seemed very akin to watching something good happen for Rutgers. The fans just have no idea how to act or handle success, since they are not very used to it
lol hey bun how many players wreck a knee without and contact??your a complete moron!!
Pretty inquisitive for someone who joined a few weeks ago and has 11 posts.
That would involve them regularly beating the sisters of the poor. I'm not convinced that they can do it
Welcome to the party Bucktooth - your in depth analysis is much appreciated - now I know why we lost - Thanks.
It took Iowa 2.5 quarters to overcome the lead PSU established with its starting QB in the game. To say the more talented team won....is more than idiotic. Injury is indeed part of the game of football. Iowa won the game.
Well what are the hypotheticals there? Kind of like, what if....Clifford wasn't injured? See how that can work both ways?
Of course they were doing this, also. I watched one of the Ole Miss players standing with hands on hips, look to the sideline, point down to confirm his instructions, then slowly fall to the ground. It was hilariously bad acting.
And this didn’t happen in the PSU game. You guys can point to one instance that might have been questionable….that doesn’t equal a game plan.
I hope you can some day. Every fanbase has some A-holes (some more than others). I would think you'd enjoy the experience and would be treated well. You're alright, Hawkman. Take care.
He may be our top player on defense. Certainly one of the best defense line in the Big 10. It doesn’t benefit us to have him sit out a play. Especially with the lack of depth.
If they do, I will be on their board like a vengeance.
I think it would be EPIC!!!! Thanks Nits and right back at ya!!!!
There has been a total of 4 undefeated teams in the past 10 seasons (5 if you count Central Florida 2017). So yes, odds are slim Iowa wins out. Miniscule.
Damn, you guys have some fragile egos. Brisker (that's his name) has been fighting that injury all season. I'm sure getting up (again) and walking off the field is a point of pride for him. You folks need to get out of Iowa more often. There's a big world out there full of people who are different than you.
Yes, by all means have our all American DB, who’s been in and out of games all year due to a shoulder injury, fake an injury so he has to come out of the game…..your brilliance is blinding.
It seems the feeling in Iowa is unless it's a leg injury, an injured player should never lay on the field. Watch a football game between any two random teams. There's a good chance you'll see a player who suffers an upper body injury lay on the ground afterward. But in Iowa it's always black and white and they know the difference. Except Ferentz and the Iowa coaching staff. For them white is white. And black should be white too.
