OK.....positives.....I think E.J. Bibbs is really getting traction and will play on Sundays. On Monday Night Football his image will look at the camera during lineups and say "Iowa State". That's good.
Easy to to say that now. It sucks. The defense blew it. Freaking out about it isn't helpful.
One of you ******* football savants should tell me what the average size of a D1 corner is. Please, go find it and report back. Then, tell me how big NFL corners are. Some of you are so sure you have something clever to say but all you really do is display your lack of knowledge.
I'm pretty sure that phrase has been said every year..... But here's to hoping....
Everyone on the offense is getting traction. Mangino has found ways to create some room to run, Sam is unbelievably poised, even after huge mistakes, the receivers are doing their jobs and the line is slowly getting better. I have no idea what will happen the rest of the year but next year the offense could be pretty nasty.
On a brighter note the offense looked great tonight. We just manhandled a really good defense.
Hey, we have a winner. Tribune is 5'10. He's hardly undersized. Sam is undersized but I don't think he really gave up much because of height tonight. Tribune got flat torched once, a guy made a play once and then Tribune fell on the last one. When I watch him, all I see is either exceptional play or pretty bad stuff. I'm hoping that's just age. Maybe it won't be and that's all he'll be, but it beats the days of watching guys running free by five yards all the time.
Surprised it was close. Not surprised we choked by not executing simple football plays against a bad UT team.
3 or 4 wins for the year is still attainable. If the offense can play nearly that well going forward, and the defense play sound (not necessarily good, but responsible) like they usually do, maybe we hit 5.

Depending how we can close a game against a bad KU and Tech team I would say 4.
I'd take the 5'7" Reeves back in a second.
I am sure our below average CB's have been beaten solely due to height, but I could count on one hand the times that the extra couple inches in height would have made the difference. CBs get beat by bigger WR, it happens everywhere.
