Good evening and welcome to this week’s impromptu #IowaSim22, presented by a bunch of generous Hawkeye fans.

Because of more than $600 raised today for UI Children’s Hospital and Hurricane Ian relief in Florida, we’ve got Iowa (Petras) vs. Iowa (Padilla) coming up shortly.

Team Padilla will be in white, while Team Petras will be in black.

Same exact rosters for both teams otherwise.

Who do you got? Prediction time. Let’s hear it. #IowaSim22

Team Petras wins the toss and elects to receive. Aggression! Here we go… #IowaSim22

Petras’ first pass of the sim is intercepted… #Hawkeyes

TD TEAM PADILLA. Leshon Williams puts Team Padilla up 7-0 after the Petras pick. #IowaSim22

Team Petras can’t cut into its deficit, as Stevens misses a long one from 55. #IowaSim22

Now Padilla is picked off. It’s Moss. Team Petras will take over at its own 1. #IowaSim22

The silver lining of this sim? We get double the dosage of (virtual) Tory Taylor. Look at this nuke. #IowaSim22

End 1Q: Team Padilla 7, Team Petras 0. #IowaSim22

FG TEAM PADILLA. Stevens hits from 31 yards out for Team Padilla, who now lead 10-0. #IowaSim22

It’s another punt for Team Petras and the Kinnick crowd is letting them hear it 😅 #IowaSim22

Big run by Kaleb Johnson gets Team Petras in prime position for its first points. #IowaSim22

TD TEAM PETRAS. Johnson gets Team Petras on the board, who now trail 10-7 after the PAT. #IowaSim22

Team Padilla moving it well here with tempo just before half. They’ve got it inside the Team Petras 30 with under a minute to go in the second quarter. #IowaSim22

FG TEAM PADILLA. A 40-yard make by Stevens extends the Team Padilla lead to 13-7 just before half. #IowaSim22

Petras is picked off for a second time tonight right before halftime. #IowaSim22

Halftime: Team Padilla 13, Team Petras 7.

The commentary 😂 #IowaSim22

Halftime stats for the QBs. #IowaSim22

TD TEAM Petras. QB7 shows some fight and throws the first touchdown pass of this sim, we had four rushing touchdowns and two field goals before this, to bring Team Petras within 27-14 with 2:14 to play. #IowaSim22

Team Petras goes for the onside kick here… it bounces… right into Brody Brecht’s hands for Team Padilla. 2:10 to play and Padilla’s squad leads 27-14. #IowaSim22

A 3-n-out for Team Padilla and Team Petras gets the ball back with 1:51 to go. #IowaSim22

Petras is picked off for the third time this sim. That should just about do it. #IowaSim22

It’s over.

Team Padilla beats Team Petras, 27-14, in a simulation with very little upside.

Padilla: 18/23, 196yds, 0 TD, 1 INT
Petras: 18/31, 197yds, 1 TD, 3 INT

Thank you to everyone who donated today to make this possible. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. #IowaSim22 #Hawkeyes
