This is certainly a game I will never forget," said Podolak on the Hawkeyes' postgame show.Unfortunately for Ferentz and his coaching staff, neither will the angry mob that flooded this week's Hawk Central chat with more than 1,000 comments and attacked the program's progress with all the subtlety of a sledgehammer.
"This is the worst Iowa game in several years, when you consider last week and what is on the line right now," commented chat regular BonduHawk even before the game was fully out of reach. "Just awful."
"Awful" is allowing 291 rushing yards for the third ground-game stinker in four tries. "Awful" is giving up four passing touchdowns to a quarterback in Mitch Leidner who had thrown six the entire season entering Saturday.
A three-turnover day that doesn't factor in a deflected punt that went for 14 yards and two kickoff returns from Jonathan Parker that finished with Iowa inside its own 10-yard line?
That's awful, too. So awful that a poll asking if Saturday's first half was the worst 30 minutes of Ferenz's 16-year tenure in Iowa City resulted in an overwhelming 89 percent of responders saying yes.
"All we need now is the 'Benny Hill' theme music playing in the background," said Scott T. "This team will lose out. There is no need to be vested in a bowl game this year, it'll only ruin your holidays."
