its not that these are great performances but against iowa under harbaugh we scored

Posted on September 27, 2026 at 11:01:50 AM by DetUMICH

13, 10, 42!, 27, and 26.

we left points on the board and we did that with harbaugh in peak years too, esp early in JJs tenure. some patience is not the worst idea.

this does not excuse the specific mess ups in playcalling which i fully agree with.

Back to the board

429 yards by M yesterday is the 2nd most yardage the Iowa defense has allowed in the last 4.5 seasons - By DoctorD September 27, 2026 at 10:08:36 AM
- How about the 19 points? - By Rich September 27, 2026 at 10:38:56 AM
  - I mean if we just kick a short FG and then kick an XP instead of 2 point conversion we finish with 23 points - By DoctorD September 27, 2026 at 12:01:53 PM
- bryce was on fire, he played about as well as a true soph college qb can. 10 ypa, 2 td, one pick that was basically a good punt. and we lost, anyways enough crying by me - By Daytripper September 27, 2026 at 10:12:27 AM
  - He’s getting there. Let the kid play* - By ameriKa September 27, 2026 at 10:34:56 AM
  - These things do happen. I think what makes it worse for me is Beck learning nothing in the first 3 games* - By Rich September 27, 2026 at 10:16:31 AM
    - learn nothing? The offense was infinitely better yesterday than it was in the opener* - By DoctorD September 27, 2026 at 01:50:49 PM
    - man, i completely disagree. watch Bryce in WMU vs Iowa. improvement in every aspect* - By 6p September 27, 2026 at 10:29:30 AM
      - Yup, he went from massive liability v a MAC team to successful game manager against Venables in week 2 to lighting up a cupcake in week 3 and lighting up Phil Parker in week 4.* - By Bluebuck September 27, 2026 at 10:37:58 AM
      - I will give you that. But other things unchanged: turtling on key calls, rhino focus, not valuing the ball, not using what works* - By Rich September 27, 2026 at 10:36:04 AM
    - he modified the passing game to take advantage of Bryce’s strengths. I’ll give him that (nm) - By danny September 27, 2026 at 10:22:48 AM
    - Whose offense was Bryce running when he lit them up? Who coached him?* - By Bluebuck September 27, 2026 at 10:19:57 AM
      - i hope rich is going to start apportioning yards to the talent versus the system. - By DetUMICH September 27, 2026 at 10:27:48 AM
        
        OK, it's all Beck. So he learned to use Bryce more. Still we scored 19 points. That is godawful as was 13 vs WMU and 17 (really 10) vs OU. Bottom line is he can't score points.* - By Rich September 27, 2026 at 10:37:32 AM

        True but those were good Iowa defenses. This one is not (we will see next week) * - By Rich September 27, 2026 at 11:07:36 AM
        
        seems premature to call them not a good defense* - By DoctorD September 27, 2026 at 12:02:17 PM
        
        the word you mean to use is “didn’t”, not “can’t”* - By DoctorD September 27, 2026 at 10:58:18 AM
    - How so?* - By LewisBullox September 27, 2026 at 10:17:13 AM
