Yeah, I suggest, I believe perhaps the argument will be is it too early, that type of thing. That placed our team at 19-7. I thought it gave our company our finest possibility to gain the soccer video game, and to me the greater concern is our company not at the very least obtaining one goal out of those 2 field goal options. Our experts possessed the round down inside there close. That is actually definitely an area we are actually heading to must enhance," Ferentz stated.The logic for trying the two-point conversion make an effort makes good sense. Transform the two-point shot and Iowa State would require a set of goals and added indicate tie the volleyball video game.Instead, Iowa Condition redshirt freshman twist Kyle Konrardy's 54-yard field goal ended up as the game-winner as opposed to representing a possible game-tying field goal attempt if the Hawkeyes had elected for a dab attempt earlier.Contact/Follow our team @HawkeyesWire on X and also like our page on Facebook to comply with recurring protection of Iowa updates, notes and opinions.Adhere To Josh on X:@JoshOnREF.
