The Chuck Long Podcast

We take one final look back at the Iowa loss to Ohio State with former Hawkeye quarterback Chuck Long on his podcast this week. It was a great weekend in Iowa City with only the result to the game being a bit of a downer for Hawkeye fans. We start with the Iowa offense and their inability to punch in early opportunities for touchdowns instead of field goals. What is missing with the Iowa ground game right now? What can be done to fix it? We then discuss the incredible performance by Buckeye wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, who had over 200 yards receiving on the day. He essentially had a gravitational pull on the entire secondary all game long and dominated even when he was not the target in the passing game. Should we be concerned that Iowa has given up over 400 yards in total offense the last two games? After that we discuss facing Washington and a short week. Iowa also is dealing with a possible injury at quarterback. How would you handle Hank Brown and Jeremy Hecklinski this week in practice? What about other guys who are dinged up? How do you keep the Washington quarterback in check? Then we discuss this past week in the Big Ten. Is the old Big Ten West on the rise? How impressive were Northwestern, Nebraska, and Wisconsin this weekend? Then we look ahead this week and we predict the winners of several games, including Iowa at Washington.
