    Gambling or not, you are up 24 points with seconds left and you don't kneel the ball and run it in the end zone instead? Really horrible sportsmanship. Someone on Iowa must have had -28 on their team.

    I didn’t see the ending, but don’t forget about OC Brian Ferentz’s incentives in his contract.

     Yeah, but that rarely happens. 9 times out of 10 teams are kneeing there. You don't rub it into the other teams face. Classless. Regardless of which side I bet on I feel the same way.

    I agree, it is poor sportsmanship.  Back in the day, before the playoff, margin of victory was part of the BCS criteria and coaches had a reason to run up the score.  College football is unique as when the game is in hand you get the underclassmen and walk ons some reps

    Every team/coach has done it on occasion. Usually they say we play to the whistle, if you don't want me to score then stop me. Saban, Meyer, Brown, Carroll, etc... I've seen em all do it

    Penn St did it against West Virginia week 1

     

    some coaches know the number and want to cover the number

    some coaches arent happy they are losing plays per game with the new rules and keep the offense going and get as many reps as possible.  Lord knows Iowa's often pitiful offense needs all the practice they can get

    You must be new or unaware on how College sports works.  Only thing that matters is the final scoring for ranking purposes

     Exactly.  Why is it ok for the team who's down to do it, when it's clearly over, and not for the team ahead?

    This is why ppg shouldn't be in a coaches contract. I can see a scenario where the game is in hand but the starters are still in and someone gets hurt because the OC needs an average of 25 ppg.
