My quick math puts the Iowa at 156 points on the season.

They need to avg 33.8 over the next 5 to get to 325. Their current avg points per game is 19.5. So they just need to add 2 touchdowns per game to their output.

Lol yeah, let's see that happen to ISU and see if you feel the same.

How many "game is rigged" threads would that spawn, about 50?
I actually was surprised the foul wasn’t called right away. I looked at my wife and asked, “wasn’t he calling for a fair catch as he was running toward it?” I think he was trying to be sneaky and got caught.

Well, they do get Ill, NW and Rutgers along with Nebraska. so its not out of reach, but I still don't see them scorring more than 24 points against even the bad teams unless they get 14 points or from defense.

They wouldn't have phoned in and reviewed it if there wasn't something there.

I probably would've been mad if I were an Iowa fan at the game, but Reggie Smith's explanation on TV was pretty firm

It would be absolutely gutting to lose that way...but GOTT DAYUMM!!! is it funny that it happened to Iowa.

Clark's right. There would be plenty of threads on here melting down over the call.

And guess what? Hawk fans would be making fun of us on their boards, just like we are now. They poked plenty of fun at us for being upset over the 2017 KSU game

I feel like this BYU team has been all over the board. Can't figure out if I feel like we have a shot there or if it's going to be pretty hard to win

It’s the one thing you don’t do unless you’re fair catching it. Also explains why the 8 Minnesota guys right there didn’t tackle him.

If I was at the game maybe, if I didn’t have the same angle, but I was surprised he took off running, I was sure he called fair catch in real time.

Hawk fans would be here also. They have a complex with us.
