Scout.com: 2009 Big 12 Fearless Predictions - Week 2

It says about what I expected it would. I sure wouldn't call a win by ISU "stunning", but maybe I misunderstood what the writer was trying to say.

I think whoever wrote this "preview" didn't watch our game or know anything about us. They don't even mention anything about our offense and apparently we have an ULTRA-aggressive D.

Do we have an ultra-agressive defense? From what I saw last week, ISU has a defense that's trying to be agressive, but doesn't have the personnel to run what they want to, so they're playing containment defense at the moment.

I think this is the "unbiased" review that hawkeyescott was looking for...

**bos** · 09-10-2009, 10:32 AM

ha ha, aggressive D..... we are making improvements, but Im not at complimenting in a big way yet.

**DRCHIRO** · 09-10-2009, 10:52 AM

How were we trying to be aggressive??? We brought pressure two, three times, maybe. I think we'll see alot more blitzing this week and as the season goes on. We have to, our fron 4 can't put pressure on the qb by themselves.

I think he's talking agressive as in we'll be sending multiple blitz packages. I don't read into that as us having this magnificent D.

I also enjoy that Iowa beats the spread.

"Iowa State’s run defense got gouged by North Dakota State both by air and on the ground"

I'm guessing this person wrote this article in about five minutes.

That's a stat that I need to re-research: how many times in the last 10 years has Iowa beat the spread on this game? I seem to remember that it is a very low number...
