Iowa vs. Arizona

[Spence]

Stanzi isn't having the best game. Arizona is making the Hawkeyes look bad. I think Iowa needs to return to their bread and butter and quit trying to catch up quicky. That is going to take some better play on D.

Does any B10 team have a good special teams unit.

I didn't get to watch this game. From the hilights, it looked like Arizona had some opportunistic moments and made the best of them.

It looked a lot like Zona was playing their BCS bowl and Iowa showed up for the Carquest Bowl or whateve the Heck it is called now.

The intensity seemed to stick with Zona even when Iowa pulled off a march. It was just odd to me.

Iowa dug themselves into a hole with poor special teams play. Then down 27-7 mounted a comeback to tie the game at 27. Iowa totally became a passing team, which is not their strength. I think the two teams to be very even, maybe Iowa a little stronger of the two, but this time in Tucson, Arizona came out on top.

Nice comeback for Iowa (they just could not finish the deal)....it looked liked the game was over and they fought back. I couldn't believe that Iowa could not even get a pass off on their final 4 downs....they gave up four straight sacks. They had time at the end but their oline and backs let them down. Maybe the heat got to them.
Iowa will win a lot of games this year....that may end up being their only loss.

Razorhawk...I was rooting for Iowa. I knew you would have a pretty good day if Ark and Iowa both could win big games on the road.

Still a good day with the Hog win. Ole Miss and Notre Dame both lost also.

I saw a post on a Razorback board that said Houston Nutt is the only coach, since the SEC added South Carolina and Arkansas, to have a losing record against Vanderbilt. He is 2-3 all-time vs Vandy.

And Notre Dame losing was fabulous!

Unusual for a couple of missed calls to go against ND and possibly cost them the game. First was on a Mich St touchdown pass where the receiver went out of bounds then came in to make the catch and TD. The other was on the fake field goal when there should have been a delay of game called against MSU.

About 99 more of those and the Leprechauns will draw even with fate!

Well, the defender cut off the receiver's running path, stretched his arm out, forcing him out of bounds; so the catch was legal.

However, if the defender would have knocked the ball away, a penalty could have been called on him; as he ran out of bounds, on his own, then came back in to attempt a play at the ball.

As for the delay of game in question... I cannot comment. I was not paying attention to the play clock, so I did not notice it.

I just saw the ball snap, and thought, "what are they doing!", until I realized there was a receiver wide open behind the entire ND line... then I simply
