attempting certain continue execute game mean parts passing past smart sure worked
Just because what we've done in the past has worked and worked well doesn't mean that it will continue to. We have really got to be smart in what we're attempting to do. We need to make some adjustments and make sure we can execute certain parts of our passing game more consistently.
best dan either game great kirk root watch
Kirk and Dan are great friends of mine. I do my best to watch the game and not root for either one.
continue develop football game passing past players throw weeks whatever year
We need to develop a passing game that our players can execute. For whatever reason, for the past two weeks what we have been doing hasn't been productive. That is being about as kind as I can be. We are not going to continue to go through the year like this and not be able to throw the football some.
best building game happy iowa program step sure watch
With all my Iowa ties, I do my best to watch the game indifferently. But you have to be happy for Dan. He's been building that program and that sure is a big step for them.

We (coaches) believe that Rhett has played well enough and is close enough that we do intend to get him snaps early in games as well as late in games.

He'll get his share of carries, but we also hope that we can get him another five to 10 touches through the passing game with a little more space, as opposed to everybody sitting there lined up looking at him in the backfield. How that works out, we'll see.
both completing couple game guys per percent strong throwing yards
Together, both quarterbacks are throwing for about 250 yards per game and completing about 70 percent of their passes. That's pretty strong for a couple of guys who don't have a lot of experience.
against game haunt instance kept knee maybe position reason rotten side texas
What we were doing at the end of the game, we've never done before. The other side of it is, if we don't do it, for instance when we did take a knee against Texas Tech, does that then come back and haunt you? Is that the reason that maybe kept you out of something, and how do you live with that as well? Its really a rotten position to play in.

You guys probably forgot how he played those first 12 games,
alexander ball biggest game goal
Rufus Alexander made probably the biggest play of the game down at the goal line, and he got the ball back for us.
actions assuming consider entertain game good justify quit reason seen shows status team until
No status right now. It's not something I said I'd even consider until after the (TCU) game. It's after the game and I haven't seen him. So, I'm assuming he's quit the team for good and until I know different, we'll see. I won't entertain anything until he shows he has a good reason or he can justify what his actions have been.
ball game guys turn
This game isn't real complicated, in that if you turn the ball over you're going to get beat. Those guys (quarterbacks) each need to be more responsible with the ball.
