The Chuck Long Podcast
from Hawkeye Report Podcast Hosted by Tom Kakert
A lot of ground to cover this week on the Chuck Long Podcast. This week we try to make sense of the stunning loss to Iowa State and what went wrong in the second half. We open discussing how unusual the game was for Iowa and then dive into the play of Cade McNamara.. How he started hot and then struggled in the last three quarters of the game. We discuss if Iowa should look at playing Brendan Sullivan this weekend in some sort of a limited role? What is the danger in doing that and is Long concerned at all with McNamara and his development so far this season? We look back at the red zone issues for Iowa and the plays being called. Why Tim Lester did well, but might have tried to do too much in those situations instead of keeping it simple in those goal line situations. We also discuss the Hawkeyes going for two in the second half and why chasing those points was not a good decision because you should never chase points from the lead. What about the Iowa defense giving up a couple of big plays in the second half. What happened on the 75 yard touchdown with Iowa's coverage. What happened on the 30 yard pass late in the game in terms of coverage? Then we talk Big Ten football and pick some games for this week.
