Most Iowa Thing Ever: Iowa vs. Rutgers On-Screen Promo Featuring Two Punters
I have never seen this before where both punters were featured as the main draw. I had to take a picture of my screen when I saw it. I'm guessing we see a lot more of Tory Taylor (Iowa's punter) on Saturday.
Also bonus - this is a screen shot of Harbaugh's big exhale following Corum's touchdown right before half time. I felt the same way.

This is amazing. Some producer must have laughed to himself when this promo actually got pushed into production.
September 26th, 2022 at 12:18 PM ^
Or cried...
September 26th, 2022 at 12:31 PM ^
Yeah kudos to Fox for having fun with this.
September 26th, 2022 at 12:17 PM ^
Homage to MGoBlog's Punt / Counterpunt.
And almost as funny.

New promo for our game against Iowa featuring Puntzilla...
September 26th, 2022 at 2:03 PM ^
That's Charlie-zilla. Not shown is Mothra pulling the football.

I'm not sure what I was expecting to see when I clicked on a thread with this title, but I'm glad I wasn't drinking coffee at the time because I would have spit-taked it onto my monitor. This is amazing.

I was texting an old roommate who's from Iowa during the B1G Championship Game last year. He said "I know our punter is out best player, but that doesn't mean we have to let him punt every drive."
Yes it does.

Currently, punting every drive is an above-average outcome for them.

And the most Michigan thing of all is for overconfident fans to be mocking the upcoming opponent, despite the fact we've only played half of a good team and our rookie QB has never played a road game and it's Iowa City. Remember Rutgers about this time last year? I expect tension well into the second half on Saturday, possibly right to the end.

"And the most Michigan thing of all is for overconfident fans to be mocking the upcoming opponent..."
No shit, so why are you whining about it? Its what we do...
September 26th, 2022 at 12:43 PM ^
Yeah, because what we say on a message board has a major impact on what happens in the game.
September 26th, 2022 at 12:44 PM ^
Take it up with Fox Sports if you are upset with the graphic but I think you are throwing unnecessary shade at punters. They are football players too and should get the same treatment if they are going to be an instrumental part of a football game.
September 26th, 2022 at 12:48 PM ^
I'm going to the game with a good friend. He's a lifelong Iowa fan. He thinks this promo is hysterical and accurate.
Lighten up, Francis.
September 26th, 2022 at 1:03 PM ^
Well, I would argue our Rookie QB has more experience than most. Played in National Semi-Finals against eventual National Champ, B10 Championship game, major part in slaying OSU, and away games at MSU, Neb, MD, Wisc and PSU. Not like he just jumped off a turnip truck outside Kinnick Stadium.
September 26th, 2022 at 1:10 PM ^
more likely a soybean or corn truck in Iowa
September 26th, 2022 at 1:03 PM ^
Aren’t these two the MVP’s of their respective teams?
September 26th, 2022 at 1:06 PM ^
If this game gets ugly, slows down to a punting war, low scoring affair, ugh,.. will make me sick and unfortunately will favor the Hawkeyes.
September 26th, 2022 at 1:22 PM ^
I know it's a new year with new guys but we beat the absolute fuck out of Iowa in the Big Ten Championship game last year.
Iowa is the same exact team they were then. They don't have the speed to deal with what we're going to do.
I'm not scared of Iowa.
September 26th, 2022 at 1:43 PM ^
Coach, how to you deal with a tough Iowa team next week?
September 26th, 2022 at 1:49 PM ^
I mean, honestly, are you telling me the promo for this week shouldn't be the same? Why can't we have a little of Robbins with his helmet off on the promo?
September 26th, 2022 at 3:36 PM ^
I totally read that as Iowa-Rutgers porno. I guess my brain is in the gutter today. LOL.
September 26th, 2022 at 5:35 PM ^
This is a game for the foot fetish guys (and gals, I’m sure one exists somewhere)
September 26th, 2022 at 4:59 PM ^
Holy shit this was real? I thought it was a fan-made thing. That makes it even better.
