Minnesota having their Cincinnati game

[soundcrib]

Though Iowa is ranked.

 

[ScarletNut]

I was thinking the same thing

Though Iowa is ranked.

well it’s not a good comparison then is it

 

[FrankZ]

Yep. This was taking shape since last week. Tried to warn my Gopher loving friends out here.

 

[scarlet_knight]

Row the boat

 

[RUfromSoCal?]

nope.. never that good. they weren't even favorites vs. Iowa.. sharps knew they were over-rated and PSU is over-rated as well....

 

[soundcrib]

Still laying an egg.

Second half left though.

If I was still gambling I would’ve put the mortgage on Iowa today.

Especially on the road at Kinnick, easy money

This thread will not end well. [roll][roll]

 

[MadRU]

Not so fast, 7 point game

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Nope

 

[RUfanSinceAnderson]

You realize Iowa’s was favored

 

[ScarletCrimson]

We got smoked by Cinci.

Minny hanging in.

PJ might have cost them the game by running on the field getting penalty, and thus negating a first and goal

Probably would have tied it up without that

Just cost them 15 yds, but not a great move

 

[KeithK7624]

Not even close. Iowa is the better team and at home. By far from a wtf loss. Vegas and most of the country got this one right. Despite the rankings, Minny winning would have been the upset.

They would have had a first down near the goal line instead of offsetting penalties

I thought that too but actually either way it was Iowa ball as the penalty came after the play. So Iowa was assessed half the distance to the goal and would have had first down even without Fleck’s penalty... his penalty just pulled them out of being pinned deep with the 15 yds tacked on after half the distance was assessed. They weren’t offsetting penalties... they were assessed sequentially.

Play was over. Iowa would have had ball 15 yds back. Announcers confirmed during game too.

I’m always confident calling bets at halftime too.

Congratulations--a rare jinx defeat. It was close, but jinx invoked and OP held.

Poor analogy.

 

[krup]

Poor analogy.

Definitely.

Kinnick is a tough place to play in November for all B1G teams. Cincinnati had a knack for specifically upsetting Rutgers.

On the highlight show this morning said they had 3 wins against 9-0 teams coming into Iowa....two 1 point wins and yesterday's 4 point win.

With Minn and Baylor losing, only 3 Power 5 teams left undefeated (Ohio St, LSU,Clemson). All will be significant favorites to run the table although Ohio St has land mines in front of them with Penn St and Michigan (doubt the West Opponent is a threat) , and Clemson has no threats at all in that weak ACC. LSU probably a TD or more favorite.

The fight for the last Playoff spots will be interesting to watch unfold.

LSU v Georgia will be an interesting game because it is strength (LSU offense and UGA defense) against strength and weakness against weakness (LSU defense against UGA offense).

Lost an oar

The Fleck apple didn't fall far from the Schiano tree.

And the game will be in Georgia.
