The Hawkeyes’ Friday demolition of all things Gophers was an anti-climactic ending to what I thought was going to be an entertaining game. I guess it still was entertaining, but it actually became a little boring. The outcome was decided so early, I forgot to sing “In Heaven There is No Beer” to my empty room (and my dog). Now that’s saying something. Into the grades:
Offense
QB: C
Spencer Petras accomplished the most important thing for a starting quarterback. He went 1-0 on the night. That said, his stat line of 9-18, 111 yards, 1 INT, 1 TD leave a whole bunch of somethings to be desired.
