The last time they decorated the locker room, they lost by a last second field goal as well.
Let's never do that again please.
November 13th, 2016 at 12:16 AM ^
I was thinking the same. So the locker room is pink. Who gives a shit? The act of covering it up already makes it seem it got in their heads.
November 12th, 2016 at 11:48 PM ^
the Wikipedia entry for "Bed-Shitting" should just be a replay of this game.

Speight was horrendous, playcalling was horrendous. Worst performance under Harbaugh.

Yup, it looks like the season will likely come down to Speight's performance, which may either be a masterpiece, or awful. At this point it seems like a toss-up what will show up down the stretch
November 13th, 2016 at 2:31 AM ^
OSU will eat Speight for lunch. I hope I am wrong.

Poor blocking by the offensive line and Speights missing on all the long balls; that was the difference.
November 12th, 2016 at 11:35 PM ^
November 12th, 2016 at 11:54 PM ^
It's just incredible how many consecutive years the offensive line has been terrible.

November 13th, 2016 at 9:48 AM ^
Honest question: Is it talent, coaching, or both?
November 13th, 2016 at 12:57 PM ^
At this point I'm just convinced the Hoke linemen are not fixable.
November 12th, 2016 at 11:36 PM ^
Speight missed open people. Lines couldn't block. People missing holes when they were there. Can't win when you only score 13.

is another example. But the D play, while not great, played well enough to will. The safety provided the margin of victory. It looked like De'veon had enough momentum to power out of the end zone, but tried to stop and cut allowing the DT to stop him for a loss.

Can't we use Peppers as a decoy just ONCE?! Ugh

Speight was not sharp today, but Chesson and Darboh had numerous plays where they should have caught the pass.
Playing in Iowa City blows.
Team will get to work tomorrow.
Still a lot to play for!

Pass blocking was above-average-to-good tonight. Speight was bad tonight, and is average on the whole.

You don't block their best DL on the goal line? What was he thinking going to the 2nd level without first making a block?
November 13th, 2016 at 1:46 AM ^
Pass blocking was average at best. Run blocking was atrocious. Jaleel Johnson finished with 9 tackles. I know he's good, but DT's are not supposed to get 9 tackles in a game. 3 or 4 maybe, but 9?!? We only had 35 rushing attempts. You're telling me a DT gets 9 tackles out of 35 rushing plays, but Speight's passing is the thing holding back this team? Cumong, man. We finished with 2.8 YPC against Iowa.
There were numerous plays tonight where I saw our linemen not block anybody. It wasn't a case of targeting the wrong defender to block, they just didn't block anybody, period. Guys were just running around on the field wondering who to block.
Meanwhile, Iowa's DBs had 6 BrUps. That means Speight was accurate enough for their DBs to make plays on the ball. I didn't see our WRs going up to contest any of those 6 BrUps. Darboh is a solid WR, but he only had 1 catch for 5 yards today. King took him out of the game. We let Iowa's two solid players, Johnson and King totally disrupt our offense. But blame Speight if it makes you feel better.

After his worst game of the season, he fell to 25th in passing efficiency in the NCAA. That's out of 128 teams, putting him in the upper quintile. But go ahead and claim he's average.

Speight missed at least 3 TDs. The Pepcat is ineffective if you never pass from it. And we were fancy at all the wrong times it seemed. DAMMIT
November 12th, 2016 at 11:39 PM ^
Garbage.

But I am pretty sure Darboh slowed down on a couple of those...definitely the first one as he was passing the defender and gave him a little push.
November 13th, 2016 at 12:18 AM ^
Not a completely different game, but a win.
November 12th, 2016 at 11:48 PM ^
uninspired, no? Some uncanny sh*t with the 1985 games, though. How is that even possible? Same day, 2,3,4 losing, doing it on a field goal--was it the same score?
From ESPN:
"According to FPI's pregame predictions, there was a 5 percent chance that at least two top-four teams would lose Saturday, and a 0.3 percent chance at least three would go down. It's worth noting that FPI had the games slightly closer than the Las Vegas line in three of the four games, so the implied Las Vegas percentage would be even more extreme."

Play today. Speight will have PTSD and we're more full of holes than swiss cheese at a shooting range. Speight was off, and he wasn;t helped by the playcalling. His receivers tried to baile him out, but why all the aggressive downfield shots when you need to RUN! THE! FUCKING! BALL!

Alot of idiots in this post....understand frustration but doubting the coaching staff or this teams exceptionalism is pathetic...hard place to win and we didn't have it today
