Kid did good. He didn’t give up a single catch. He recorded a 65 rating though. This is likely because of the penalty he got after an illegal pick sprung his WR for a gain. He tracked down the WR and tackled him, but it was a horse collar. Penalties offset and the play vanished. Still, the idea of it is working against him. I hate that for him. I do love the 81.5 tackler rating. That’s heavy work against a top 20 team. Didn’t miss a single tackle. made several defensive stops. He played big today.
They still lost 55-0
There is a separation between a team being good and a player playing good. I saw that today. A lot of players played very well, but as a team they were outclassed. It started up front. It was a matter of big men on the UNI side not being able to take Iowa Bigs. Thats a top 20 vs. FCS matchup for you. It isn’t really a challenging thing for them.
Some Thoughts:
- Good football weekend overall so far. Feels nice.
