So of course we all know that the win against Penn State was one of the greatest moments we've witnessed in our times as being Iowa Hawkeye fans. It may even be one of greatest things we'll ever see in our lifetimes too. But ya never know.
Now how is it that Kirk decided to put Murray in for the kick and not our regular kicker, Trent Mossbrucker? The freshman has proven to play well all season, and the reigns have been handed over to the sophomore Daniel Murray, who has only made one field goal all season and it was in September.
We've had four close games this season that we ended up losing. This could've been No. 5 and leaving us worrying about whether or not we'll become bowl eligible. Once again, Kirk's gut says to put Murray in. The same gut that said to let Jake Christensen stay in the game and led to a loss. Uh-oh. We're in real trouble now.
Has anyone seen the clip of how close the ball was from being blocked? Wow. That was unbelievable. And yes, as great as it was that the veteran made the kick, it was heartbreaking for the go-to-guy to sit back and wish it was him with all the glory and fame for the short time.
