Come to think of it, you are right. It wasn't Iowa we beat for that title. That was the year before. It was a lackluster Michigan team they beat the next year for the title. It was partially because Michigan wasn't that great that they ended up with a split title with Miami. The Iowa game was a much better game.

We lost 2 Rose Bowls to Washington
1 to UCLA &
1 to Stanford
 
I got some bad news for Michigan too. If you draw UGA or bama in the CFP, they're going to smoke you. Your skill guys aren't skilled enough and your lines aren't going to dominate...if they can't take it to Iowa...you've got issues
 
What exactly was Iowa’s offensive strategy? Seems to be try to play field position

Isn't that the same story most years for pretty much every team that goes up against them?

Many thought Bama would have trouble with UGAs lines. See how that turned out. Gotta play the games.
 
I mean watching Harbs throw his headset down on the sidelines of a playoff game is going to be fun.
 
Man a special teams play. What?

Yes they do. I will say that the skill players in the game earlier made plays on their feet when they were covered or contested. In this game they're going to the ground when they're contested. There is a difference. Also, Michigan should be working the front 7 of Iowa in this game the same as they did OSU and they're not able to....that's just the way it is...those 2 teams will play with this kind of physical front but their skill guys will make plays on their feet and that will be the difference. It's just the way I see it

I will say whoever UGA plays. Will UGA be pissed about losing the way they did and play like beasts with raging hemorrhoids? Or will they be letdown and not in it?
 
3 or 4 preventable big plays are the difference in this game.

That is ALWAYS iowa's strategy, then hope to get some sort of turnover. They average less than 300 yards of offense per game.

They'll be ready for a game. Those guys know they're playing for a future in this sport where they get paid real money...they won't lay down and they'll want a shot at the Tide again...they were embarrassed and they'll want to correct that
 
Well damn. This game was close.

Yup, they want you to lose by doing something dumb, and in the B1G West you can count on 4 or 5 teams a year doing just that, then you have to beat the other couple.

sucks for you that your team was beat at home by cincy and now all your eggs had to go into the Iowa beating Michigan basket for ND to make the CFP. Next time, take care of your season yourself.
