[quote]Whats the Iowa player supposed to say?? Honestly... is he supposed to say "oh they are great we arent confident at all we cant compete". Seriously. This isnt talking smack. This is an Iowa football player saying they feel confident playing against us. Talking smack would be saying "they s...

re: If LSU loses to Iowa

Posted by MATT F0LEY on 12/31/13 at 11:35 am
[quote]But a loss would be 3 bowl losses in a row. How far of a snapshot would you have to have to see when the last time LSU accomplished that? You'd have to go back to 1982, 84, 85 and 86. We lost 4 in a row. Then your snap shot includes the years that came after that and you know where the progra...
[quote]Robinson held up pretty well against Mike Evans, who had an even bigger weight advantage and gets away with murder against opposing CBs. and Tre plays because our "big" CB Jalen Collins is allergic of contact in the run game. it's not the size of the dog in the fight... [/quote] Fair enou...
[quote]Is he going to get the Rashard Rob treatment or the Tre White beatdown? [/quote] With all due respect, Martin-Manley has 30 lbs on White and 40lbs on Robinson. I think he, as a fourth-year junior can handle himself out there against either of those two true frosh CBs, particularly in the ...
There was a thread on this board a few weeks back that centered upon Iowa playing a lot in three TE sets - both run and pass - and the challenge it would present LSU. CJF is one big dude and has done a great job blocking and a solid job catching with those Hamburger Helper hands - he does a nice ...
[quote]If this has been posted, delete please. quote: "Once you watch the (LSU) film, you get really really confident. We're really confident right now." Quote at the Bottom[/quote] I think LSU has Iowa's full attention and respect... "We're going to assume that he's good," Hitches s...

[quote]They seriously showed up to a non BCS bowl 8 days early? Their super bowl?[/quote] BCS game or not, It's part of their bowl prep plan to get to the site a few days early so the players can get acclimated to the warmer climate (Iowa hasn't practiced outdoors in almost a month). Teams from ...
You forgot reason 11 - Weisman continues to insist on running the ball with his eyes closed while screaming at the top of his lungs, "I'm the Jewish Jedi....want some?!' [img]http://hawkcentral.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/weisman-wide.jpg[/img]...
[quote]No doubt that LSU is the superior team, but that hasn't exactly been enough of a reason to yield victories this season and in the past. Like almost every game, we will make a close game out of it, and since Iowa is not a Top 10 team, it will probably be an ugly performance on our part. ...

re: Iowa Offense and the 3 TE set

[quote]if we're in base personnel, we don't blitz the DBs that much. pretty much never bring the CBs. all you're really gonna get is Loston playing down in the box and maybe coming off the edge here and there. he will blitz the LBs though.[/quote] I've followed Chavis since he was at UT and like ...

re: Anthony J's play in bowl game

Posted by MATT F0LEY on 12/20/13 at 4:02 pm
[quote]My guess is they will put in a fairly conservative game plan that has plenty of run, and some run/pass mix to keep him in favorable positions.[/quote] I couldn't agree more. Lots of romanticism going on in regard to AJ and his performance in this bowl game, but in the end I would look f...

re: Iowa Offense and the 3 TE set

Posted by MATT F0LEY on 12/20/13 at 10:07 am
[quote]If I were Chavis, I would man up on the WRs, bracket the TE(s) with a safety deep and LB short and keep 8 in the box. There's no question LSU has more athletes than the Hawks, but I think Iowa has a schematic advantage if LSU doesn't force the issue with their speed. I would blitz all...

re: Iowa Offense and the 3 TE set

[quote]Iowa Offense and the 3 TE set If this has been talked about I apologize. My boss is a huge Iowa fan, and we have been talking match ups and he mentioned that he thinks Iowa will do a heavy amount of 3 TE sets as they did against Ohio St. and Michigan St. Is this good, or bad for us? I feel l...

[quote]How many QB sacks has your QB had this year? [b]Iowa has given up 12 sacks this year.[/b] Is he able to move around the pocket? Mobile? [b]Yes, Ruddock is fairly mobile and able to move within the pocket when under pressure. Has a good head about him and will throw it away when no...
