Would someone please wake Tom Manning up so he starts to do what he is paid to do?
The play calls are not good - don't get me wrong. But he can't make the players execute. Do I think he's put them in good positions?

No, no I do not. That being said, when we have had openings, have we taken advantage? No to that as well.

Wow, giving up 7 pts in a half vs Texas when they got a fumble is great. Offense failing horribly tonight. A couple absolutely dangerous throws by Brock too.

He's off on lots of throws.

The ISU offense needs to stretch the field. I realize Purdy isn't the most accurate throwing the ball 40 yards down field, but at least try.

Grayer bless that gust of wind that pushed the ball far enough down the field that the receiver couldn't catch it.

It's so crazy when you watch some teams play offense and how easy they make it look with just good players, not even elite talent. Take Wake Forest for example, their offense is just nuts and guys are wide open everywhere. They don't have a defense worth a crap, but man if we could even get 10-20% of what they have on creativity and such with some of the weapons we have we would have both sides of the football at such a high level.
