Iowa QB Cade McNamara Injured During Practice

They don’t know the extent, waiting for more reports. “ Well, that's no good. After Cade McNamara scrambled he fell kind of weird with his right knee. He took himself out, then walked off the field and into the tunnel with Iowa's training staff.”

I just found some updates. “He’s out of the locker room. No ice and no crutches.”

“McNamara is back on the field. No jersey or helmet. He’s in the gray, two or three hashes to the right of the 30.”

They’re planning their excuse for losing to us well in advance.

Exactly. When we have that many roster spots change and we're relying on so many newbies, we're not going to win against this level of p5 school. Just no.

The discussion becomes more interesting when we can pay our players 100k per year at least.

I know I’d play harder if I were driving a new Beamer to the game.

I’d love to be proven wrong, and will eat every bit of crow if I am, but I think this season might be really bad. My gut instinct says somewhere between 1-3 wins. We get boatraced in the opener. If we even cover vs Iowa I’ll be stunned.

There appears to be some concern out of the Iowa camp, at least from Iowa fans, regarding McNamara. The injury incident over the weekend seems minor enough but they are doing an MRI on his previously injured knee and he could miss some more of fall camp. This is what I'm hearing in general from local Iowa media about their team out of fall camp so far:
- Defense looks really good and is way ahead of the offense
- Offense has looked ok with McNamara at the helm but there is a huge drop-off after him as the backups have looked awful in practice
- The pass rush and secondary are their strengths
- O-line could still be a concern. They were bad by Iowa standards last year and possibly only slightly better this year
- Look for the Hawkeyes to pass more on 1st downs than in the past
- Play calling will be more aggressive when holding onto a lead in the second half of games

I'm afraid they're going to score 21+ on us, regardless of their QB. And I'm also worried that we will have real trouble scoring on them, optimistically I would guess 14. Now if our defense can force some turnovers deep, or get some points even, we might have a chance.

It’s going to be UGLY.

Iowa fans will be deceived into believing their offense is fixed when they put up 35+ on us, only to lose 7-3 to Iowa state the next week.

After the way Anderson handled the Alabama game, I fully expect USU to NEVER be competitive in our P5 money game while he's coach.
That's fine I guess, but it was fun to imagine an upset win - and get close a few times.

Anderson has a lot of new players. With the transfer portal open, essentially year around, coaches don't know what team they will have during spring camp, let alone summer camp. Lot's of chemistry, depth chart and timing issues to work out. I imagine the Iowa game will be a "play smart, get some reps, don't get injured, get ready for the season, collect paycheck" type of game.

In contrast, BA took Arkansas State to a victory over Kansas State and that was a mediocre-bad ASU team

Ok.. But that LSU team was probably a top 10 team of all time. And GA pt. 2 was a different coach.

I don’t think it’s fine. As a competitor, I don’t understand walking into a game with the attitude they showed at Alabama last year. Pathetic. And it had a ripple effect on the rest of the season too. There’s a reason we got our (I can't express myself without swearing) kicked by Weber.

It’s not really arguable that GA had a very different approach to money games than BA has.

I really hope Blake has a better attitude towards the Iowa game. We’re good enough to beat them. They can’t score the ball.

Just because I’m the sun belt you have 0% chance of winning buy games doesn’t mean that we don’t have a chance against most. I despised the attitude towards the Alabama game

Regardless of what BA thinks, Coop is a competitor. I’m not worried about “not trying” or “not good enough to beat them” with him leading the team. I expect him to play with guts and heart! Hopefully that rubs off on everybody!

Here is BA's outcomes against P5 teams as a HC. Pretty respectable outside of Alabama, Georgia, and USC. I expect we'll play to win as well.
2022 – Alabama – Loss 55-0
2021 – Wazzou – Win 26-23
2020 – Kansas State – Win 35-31
2019 – Georgia – Loss 55-0
2018 – Alabama – Loss 57-7
2017 – Nebraska – Loss 43-36
2016 – Auburn – Loss 51-14
2015 – USC – Loss 55-6
2015 – Missouri – Loss 27-20
2014 – Tennessee – Loss 34-19
2014 – Miami – Loss 41-20

Certainly a different approach than Gary Andersen had.

Verdammte Swedes.

After the way Anderson handled the Alabama game, I fully expect USU to NEVER be competitive in our P5 money game while he's coach.
That's fine I guess, but it was fun to imagine an upset win - and get close a few times.
I don’t think it’s fine. As a competitor, I don’t understand walking into a game with the attitude they showed at Alabama last year. Pathetic. And it had a ripple effect on the rest of the season too. There’s a reason we got our (I can't express myself without swearing) kicked by Weber.

I really hope Blake has a better attitude towards the Iowa game. We’re good enough to beat them. They can’t score the ball.

Just because I’m the sun belt you have 0% chance of winning buy games doesn’t mean that we don’t have a chance against most. I despised the attitude towards the Alabama game
I think we'll come out swinging at Iowa.
Here is BA's outcomes against P5 teams as a HC. Pretty respectable outside of Alabama, Georgia, and USC. I expect we'll play to win as well.
2022 – Alabama – Loss 55-0
2021 – Wazzou – Win 26-23
2020 – Kansas State – Win 35-31
2019 – Georgia – Loss 55-0
2018 – Alabama – Loss 57-7
2017 – Nebraska – Loss 43-36
2016 – Auburn – Loss 51-14
2015 – USC – Loss 55-6
2015 – Missouri – Loss 27-20
2014 – Tennessee – Loss 34-19
2014 – Miami – Loss 41-20
One Addition that makes him look even a bit better:
2021- Oregon State- --- Win 24-13
How could I forget that one! BA's 3-1 record over the last 3 years is pretty good!

It looks like if they score in the 50's BA's teams have been blown out and maybe not shown full effort. For the most part, anything less than that is a game.
