Officiating at the end of the Iowa game

[Statefan10]

This was the long pass play on 3rd and 10, two plays before the strip sack / double flags on us. Go to the 3:29:00 mark and watch Will McDonald get COMPLETELY tackled on the edge. Lol it's hilarious it wasn't called, and there's probably a 99.9% chance he gets home on the play to make a sack.

Oh well. It doesn't matter.

Lot of Hawk fans still raging against the officials that they'd have been guaranteed a win with that goal line fumble ruled a TD.

Crazy thought...maybe if ISU was behind they'd have kept running the same offense that drove 99 yards, instead of just running out the clock knowing there's no way Iowa's offense could ever score without a turnover. Actually the only way they could score is if the officials gave them an irrational 20 yard penalty on what would've been a game clinching fumble recovery.

How the **** that wasn’t a penalty…. Is crazy.

On "The Drive", it is important to note that the penalty was "unnecessary roughness" when Dekkers was shoved down on the sideline. It was not called a "late hit."

So, Dekkers was being escorted out of bounds and giving ground, so actually the whistle technically should have blown even before the sideline, but it didn't. But there was no reason for a defender to shove the QB that hard when he was already headed out of bounds. THAT was the penalty. The TV analyst wrongly focused on whether the contact occurred in bounds. That is irrelevant. It was not a late hit. It was unnecessary roughness, which it truly was, unnecessary. The QB was conceding the play was over. There was no excuse for shoving him as hard as you can into the sideline area.

I loved that they trotted out Onyedim, McDonald, and Anderson on sure fire passing downs and ran sort of a "NASCAR" rush package similar to what the 2011 NY Giants did. Those 3 generate a ton of pressure and Colby Reeder was just spying the QB in case he broke the pocket.

 

[cytor]

The call was: "After the play was over, unsportsmanlike conduct against the Iowa State bench, multiple players came on to the field."

Which is effectively a celebration penalty.

The Hoks got a gift on that play. They promptly pissed it down their leg. The Hoks fans can all go have sex with themselves.

 

[cytor]

Yeah, that is not offsides. I've seen worse than that and it's not called. Why didn't the flag get thrown immediately giving them the free play?

 

[werdnamanhill]

Some people here need to be reminded that we won the game, actually.

when was the flag thrown?

If you are going to throw a flag for maybe lining up a few inches off, then also flag the offense for an illegal formation. The RT is more than a yard off the LOS so there are only 6 players on the LOS. He is more out of position than Anderson.

#3's head was an inch over the line of scrimmage.

 

[cyclones101fan]

I don't like the unsportsmanlike penalty on that sideline. Practically put Iowa into FG range with the offsides.

Nobody cares, game was rigged.

 

[cyclones101fan]

Iowa’s Oline is not good. They were holding on nearly every okay and they still couldn’t block us.

I could not think the last time that ISU had a line even compared to Iowa at all. Funny Walden

Nice to make an account here JBo. I listened to you and stanz today.

ISU had a better line last year too. Iowa just had the best lineman in the nation.

Somehow that ass has a big fanboy crowd here.

FWIW I couldn't tell on that replay or on our sideline catch either way. Call on the field should've stood either way and that's what call on field was.

I could tell on our "neutral zone" infraction replay that if we were in the neutral zone they missed about 30-50 other flags for that the entire rest of the game. That's beyond bizarre to flag that on the last play when it's that razor close and apparently nobody else was in neutral zone the entire game even though it seems somebody lines up like that every play. Also that photo someone posted of McDonald getting dragged by his facemask without a penalty...so yeah, sour grapes.

You said this so much that when I re-watched the game Sunday night, I was specifically looking for it and you’re just flat out wrong. MAYBE if you’re looking at the blue line and not the ball itself? But there was not egregious offsides all game long. In fact I would even argue overall that people were playing further off the ball than I’m even typically used to seeing in games. And we were 100% offsides on that play. It’s even obvious on the angle, and I’ve no doubt it was obvious to the ref directly down the line because that flag immediately came out when the ball was snapped.

It’s the helmet that’s offside, not the hand like he claims in the video. Also, do people just not understand how viewpoint angles work?

i agree its got to be his helmet- but by how much, ya know?

it can't be THAT much but probably in the neutral zone.

which as a DE why the hell aren't you looking inside first lol
