Georgia Tech needs to respond on both offense and defense now.

JonInMiddleGA · 01-05-2010, 07:53 PM

Will the Georgia Tech secondary please report to the white courtesy phone?
Paging the Tech secondary.

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 07:53 PM

TOUCHDOWN IOWA

Radii · 01-05-2010, 07:54 PM

Really, really need one of those 15 play drives right here.

markprior22 · 01-05-2010, 07:54 PM

Stanzi looking impressive after being out so long

And everyone saying the Big 10 was down big time this year.. glad to see they're holding their own this bowl season.

Holding their own is an understatement if Iowa continues to dominate like this.

Eaglesfan27 · 01-05-2010, 08:00 PM

That is a good response

JonInMiddleGA · 01-05-2010, 08:02 PM

One thing about Tarrant, it's not dull wherever he is on the field

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 08:04 PM

Typical Stanzi

Radii · 01-05-2010, 08:10 PM

hey look a stop on defense!

Even more amazing, Iowa punted !

JonInMiddleGA · 01-05-2010, 08:15 PM

Looking over the box scores, that was the first punt by a Tech opponent since the last play of the 3rd quarter versus Duke, 10+ quarters ago.

flounder · 01-05-2010, 08:22 PM

I will say that it's a refreshing change to get torched through the air instead of torched on the ground.

It's a dual-threat defense

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 08:28 PM

Iowa is no giant on offense as seen by that awesome finish to a drive with great field position

Tech's defense can make pretty much anyone look like the Andre Ware era Cougars.

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 08:31 PM

Whats with all the delay of game penalties

CU Tiger · 01-05-2010, 08:34 PM

Come on Bees......I need this.
Christmas was hard on the wallet....I had faith for some reason....come on Bees....I'm begging here.

They are only down 7 but thats 13.5 to me.....CPJ dial up the genius knob....

It almost has me wondering whether the play clock may be running fast or something.

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 08:53 PM

I love the defense. And Clayborn is coming back nest season.

Recoil · 01-05-2010, 08:54 PM

Tech should be happy to only be down by 7 at the half. Should be interesting to see CPJ's adjustments for the 2nd half.

JonInMiddleGA · 01-05-2010, 08:58 PM

Yep, should be very happy considering the problems.

Nesbitt looked very tentative to me, especially in the 1st quarter, a far cry from the confident master of the option that we saw for large parts of the season. Not sure whether it's as simple as all the men in the box & the good job Iowa has done playing assignment football/manhandling the Tech OL or if there's something Iowa is doing that Nesbitt wasn't prepared for.

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 08:59 PM

Iowas D line is dominating right now. I think thats the difference.

Radii · 01-05-2010, 09:00 PM

Yeah, I'm thrilled to only be down 7, Paul Johnson usually does a good job making halftime adjustments and I'm hopeful that they'll be able to put up big rushing numbers in the second half still.

Finding BeBe about three times would help a lot too.

The quick out to Bay-bay would help. Iowa is sold on the run.

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 09:07 PM

It better be a quick out. Because Iowa is all over Nesbitt.

Eaglesfan27 · 01-05-2010, 09:28 PM

This game hasn't been nearly as exciting as I expected/hoped.

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 09:28 PM

JonInMiddleGA · 01-05-2010, 09:29 PM

Meh. I know he'd hit 8 of his last 9 but we still need an upgrade at kicker.

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 09:40 PM

Jon, how would you like to have Iowas O line?

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 09:42 PM

Thats big. Ate a lot of clock and got points.

JonInMiddleGA · 01-05-2010, 09:50 PM

There are times I'd be happy just to see a legit D1 offensive line across the board.

JonInMiddleGA · 01-05-2010, 09:56 PM

3 quarters of being largely manhandled by a physically superior team, feels like a miracle that it's still this close.

I'll give Iowa credit for doing a very good job of playing their assignments so far tonight as well.

JonInMiddleGA · 01-05-2010, 09:58 PM

I really wish Allen had spent his whole career playing under CPJ. He's got to be one of my favorite Tech players to watch in at least the last 20 years.

Radii · 01-05-2010, 09:59 PM

Damn good looking drive there. come on get another stop!!!

Eaglesfan27 · 01-05-2010, 09:59 PM

Now, it is getting more interesting. Come on Yellow Jackets!

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 10:00 PM

Dang.Up to the offense.

Is his YPC average still over 9? He's an absolute warrior. One of the very best GT transfers ever.

Currently 9.65 per carry through that last one.

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 10:08 PM

uh oh

Dr. Sak · 01-05-2010, 10:12 PM

Way to go Iowa!

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 10:12 PM

YES YES YES

Radii · 01-05-2010, 10:12 PM

why throw it, WHY. god.

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 10:15 PM

Come on clock

Dr. Sak · 01-05-2010, 10:17 PM

What a stupid fake

Recoil · 01-05-2010, 10:17 PM

Fake no good

17-14 Iowa

tarcone · 01-05-2010, 10:17 PM

kingfc22 · 01-05-2010, 10:17 PM

Ehhh leave the trickeration to Boise State.

Recoil · 01-05-2010, 10:18 PM

With Blair as your kicker, it's a great fake attempt
