Why did we not blitz Iowa sooner?

I re-watched the game again last night and it was somewhat shocking how long we stuck with the standard 4 man rush...

You have to take some chances against a team like Iowa especially on defense.  Perhaps they were trying to keep it hidden for conference play?

I honestly have not seen us give an opposing QB that much time.  They had like 7 sometime 8 guys blocking 4 and their QB seemed to have an hour to throw the ball.

I agree. Our speed and talent on the outside was supposed to be one of our strong points defensively this season and I'm yet to see it. Cosh needs to show us something pronto.

Harry, I've discovered that it is much, much, much better to just wait for the highlight video to come out.    First, it's only about 10 minutes or so of Mean Green goodness rather than 3 1/2 hours of torture.   Second, it's better for your blood pressure.  And last, but not least, it just makes you feel all happy inside so you can start the week in a good mood.  I highly recommend it.
