The short answer is yes. Iowa football failed in all three key categories mentioned earlier this week, but still only lost 24-22.
I don’t get it. I wish I could explain it to you simply in a column like this, but I am unable to that.
Iowa played, based on my three keys, as poorly as humanly possible, but were still within a two point conversion of making this a game.
Iowa football failed on all three keys and still kept it close. This should be the memory of the 2019 version of Iowa football. They play close to any opponent, but fail against teams that are perceived to be more talented.
