*** Official #10 Oklahoma vs #6 IOWA STATE Big 12 Conference Championship Game(Day) Thread ***

They're also not playing a team at its full strength or even a team that's necessarily as good as OU has been.

They are a way better team then OU and we are a better team then Northwestern. They prepare better. We are historically bad getting ready for season starters, bowl games and coming of bi weeks. CMC will fix it in the coming years.

What a bummer. If it was 10 at half, that's one good drive away from a tight game. Now I just don't know what's realistic.

It's a tough spot. Got to drive for a TD to open the half, get a stop and score again.

OU bailing on WV also gave them a solid 2 weeks to prepare for this. They’re obviously more prepared than we are but it’s not surprising

 

[casey1973]

Man I feel sorry for CMC. And all of them. And lastly these announcers. Really? Isheem Young targeting with his shoulder? Who knew.......

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

About that.....

Way to drop the ball man.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

BTW Campbell flipping out gave me flashbacks of Larry Eustachy

 

[Raiders70]

OU is way better than tOSU imo.

how can you say that? Ohio State even beat Indiana this year.

Would be a 3 pt game if we weren’t getting jobbed by the OU refs. Need a quick score out of the half.

Would still be one possibly if Purdy was sent to the outside on that pick instead of keeping him in the pocket.

If you have Soehner, Kolar, Allen and Hall at your disposal, you utilize it.

 

[Spartanantler]

I don't get it? There was 37 seconds left and a timeout left. Why didn't we at least try to get into field go range or sling it

 

[sdclone]

From watching the first half, I guess its ok for OU's offensive line to to wrap their arms around our DLine's neck and pretty much take them down.

 

[Beyerball]

Losing Isheem and Rems burgh first drive of game was a death blow to the psych of this team. A brutal blow.

Isheem not only great on coverage but excellent in run support.

If we lose so be it but don’t lose by 30+..

Just saw video of the missed offsides call. The fix is in.

 

[JM4CY]

I’m just so sad.

 

[Neptune78]

Weaknesses are magnified in big games. Purdy’s arm strength, dropped INT’s are all things that have hurt us for awhile now.

Kicking games has certainly cost us. Purdy's accuracy has also been tough.
Trying FG over 40 yards though is iffy with our guy. Coaches have to accept that. Also, why abandon the RPO?

 

[Iluvteak]

My god how is this possible. why are the bright lights just too much for us. Plenty of bad play to go around. It’s a team fail that first half. WTF.

 

[Blandboy]

Hummel failing to make plays in big situations. He also put in a half asssed effort on that block attempt.

Other than our receivers it's been a brutal half. Special teams plays are making me ******* sick to my stomach. It's a complete program failure to not be able to recruit a kicker better than Assalley and retain a special teams coach whose units are routine weak links on the field.

Call a ******* time out. Act like you are trying to win this game. Get out of here with this BS Campbell. Pathetic way to end the half.

calm down, dude

Its the special teams not the refs

Couldn’t have asked for a worse effort. Our secondary is inept today and Purdy keeps throwing short off of his back foot.

 

[clonedude]

I was feeling REALLY good about being down 10 and getting the ball first after the half..... but now I'm just down in the dumps. Hope the team is feeling better than I am.

We’ve never been under the bright lights before?
