Is the season over? Of course not, but I will assume that Iowa is better up front than UND, so I can see next week's TOP being even worse than today's.

And I don't know about the rest of you, but I am ******* sick of losing to the Squawks. I guess I'll just bet on Iowa to win, so I can at least profit off of Campbell's CyHawk ineptness.

You act like Iowas offense will be better than ND’s

Hawk delusion allows them to ignore the fact that they went an entire half of football managing 127 yards and two field goals against a MVC team that went 6-5 last year.

Watching him carted off yesterday was crushing
Yes, back to the original thread, seeing him helped off felt very deflating. Hope it's not season-ending.
Probably MRI today/tomorrow?

My guess would be today? Guess we can just hope for the best and have him full strength next year

I came into this game thinking the DL had the chance to be good. After seeing them pushed around by an FCS squad, I have some concerns. There were plays where our DL was pushed back 5 to 6 yards. This won't work well in the B12.
I am more worried about our dismal LB play.

On a positive, when we get everyone back healthy and the younger guys getting experience our LB's should be pretty good next year. Not bailing on this year as yesterday wasn't anything I'm judging this unit on. Bacon going down wasn't part of the plan and ****** everything up. Coaches and players have a week. Kinda hope they work on that 4 man front from what I saw yesterday.
