I'm currently eating some Wild Berry Victory Pop-Tarts,
Fresh out of the toaster.
Not bad!

Miami fandom is full of front runners. Loud, sour grape idiots. All flash, no guts when it matters.
“If Cam played” is such a cope on their side. If they kept running Fletcher in the 4th quarter they might’ve milked the clock out of our comeback. As soon as their QB had to throw they were toast. Cristobal and Co blew it.
Rocco has the Clutch factor. Kid has ice in his veins. I find myself keeping the nut cup in the drawer instead of putting on at kick off.

Ebel and Lovett were the only lbs yesterday that didn’t look lost or physically overmatched. I’d put McLaughlin in the positive camp.
The rest I’m holding judgment because of how out of sync and hurt that position group has been but there were some serious L’s at the point of attack, shedding blocks, filling gaps.
I voted it as an area I disagreed with how Mouse called it. That said, unless you’re new to CF you should also see the irony of the post mortem crowd saying, “clearly we should’ve run it up the middle” given that is one of the most bemoaned things of ISU football.
“just line up and run it up the middle?! Are these coaches even trying to win?!?”
Again, a run burns clock and I thought we could’ve gone to it sooner. Thankful for the holding call.
Still tough, there’s no winning with some people. Even when we win.
I was for a QB dive on first and 2nd down but not for clock management, just more keeping it simple and successful.
ISU seemed to generally get 1-2 yards on that throughout the season fairly easily. Becht is kind of underrated at getting a 2nd surge at the line.
There is a difference between running it up the middle on 1st & 10 from your own 25 while trailing by 14 with 7:00 to go, vs. running it up the middle on 1st & goal from one yard out while trailing by 6 with 1:00 to go.
The hok Trolls are in full panic mode right now. Between our 11 win season, a stud QB coming back next year, our men's basketball program, and their ancient FB coach and national laughing stock of an offense, tough time to be a hok.
Don't forget about their stuck-in-the-mud basketball program that draws 5k apathetic fans per game.

Lovett (if he sticks around) will be a big time contributor next year. I'm kinda hoping he is good enough to start at middle linebacker and move Bacon to edge rusher.

Against our injury ravaged D. Headcock did a great job all things considered. Somehow some people ignore all context when complaining about our rush D and scheme.
If Higgins plays, we score on 2 more possessions.

I knew we played good RBs but didn't know exactly how good until last night when I looked at the stats. I posted it in another thread, I think Harvey is 4th nationally in rush yards, Skattebo is 5th, Kaleb Johnson 6th, Tahj Brooks 8th, and there were 2 or 3 other guys in the top 18 that we faced. There were other good ones that were not top 20, like Martinez yesterday.
It's kind of nuts.
Possible we have a tougher schedule next year on paper but still easier to stop the run.
