The conjecture is that not only will we lose, but there is potential to lose big and possibly shut out with the way our anemic offense has been going. I am not sure what it is going to take but...we always have a shot, any given Saturday and all that. In truth, that is true, often forgetting these are 18-22 year old kids, we are not ever sure which version of them we will get each week. However, if precedent is any case, the offense will not be good, the d line will get worn out and Pitt will have a field day through the air while we will be decently stout on their rushing game.
Here are my thoughts:
Special teams kicking - sweet to see a kicker get the ball through the end zone on kickoffs. Meyer barely ever did that. No fake punts yet this year gives them a passing grade as well. Confused as all get out why Powell is not returning kicks and punts...guy is a speedster, why not? Vandeberg seems to be a slow white guy, he is NOT Tim Dwight. The Bears didn't say no to Devin Hester, why would we do that to our speedster? Overall grade for ST I have is a B- so far this year.
Special teams punting - sucky so far, D grade, I do not see that Kidd is better than Kornbrath so far, what are we averaging, 38 yards or so a punt and how many downed inside the 10? Hmm...
Offense and Defense - enough has been said
Coaching - also enough said, definitely NOT a passing grade so far, what should have been 3 blowouts looks like bad coaching
Come on Hawkeyes, show us that our loyalty is worth it, win this game and get back to Hawkeye football!
