what would you do differently so that the opposing team wasn't playing 11 vs 10?

Mason Fine should not be running the ball between the tackles on designed QB runs. It's blasphemy to even attempt to defend that. There are other ways to get him involved in running the ball and power plays sure as hell is not it. Roll him out and give him the option to take the yards with his legs, hit a target, or throw it away. That should be his involvement in the run game, where he has a way to protect himself and we aren't blatantly exposing him between the tackles vs guys that are literally over 100+ pounds heavier than he is. 

 

Didn't read much of your guys' conversation but saw the "Iowa is a Big10 Power" sentence you threw out. That is laughable. Iowa is not a power of anything. They are the epitome of mediocre. Ferentz has been there for 18 years. He is averaging 7.8 wins and 5.2 losses a year during his tenure. If that is a traditional power team to you, then power on. To me, that's textbook mediocrity.

Evidently you didn't see the beatdown of Ohio State by Iowa (55 - 24) by a greater margin than Iowa beat us.
