*** Official IOWA STATE vs #4 TCU Game(Day) Thread ***

[Dowwmeow]

It's time for the 3 most dreaded words in sports: play for pride.

Honor before Victory.

 

[Remo Gaggi]

Largest first quarter deficit since 2003.

 

[Neptune78]

Hey we might see Becht today at this pace

Why shouldn't he at least play the 4th?

 

[drmwevr08]

I just wonder if the team is excited to go play in some warm air and try to notch a big win. If they are not extremely motivated, I'd know where to wager my check. Coaches need to earn it this week.

Just turned it on, but already have my answer!
Did we bring enough players?

 

[simply1]

All a plan to make tcu lethargic

 

[CyJack13]

Well we will always have our covid fluke year.

 

[Old87]

Ending the season with a game like this can go a long ways towards giving motivation during the offseason.

 

[67CY]

Field goal attempt coming up

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

Honor before Victory.

Process and being better men before victory. -CMC 2022.

 

[3TrueFans]

No but Dekkers is try to make plays despite a horrible offensive line, a poor running game and a playbook that totals like 6-7 plays

He's missed an easy throw for a big gain and threw another directly to the other team while under no pressure.

 

[ZuriCyclone]

Will CMC and Manning cry together and caress each other when he is forced to fire Manning?

So many folks think this is a done deal, CMC wont fire Manning.

 

[cyclonehomer]

Didn’t read but did the numb nuts who complain about manning causing bad execution for every play blame the pick 6 on him?

Execution is also a coaching thing. Why do people act like it isn't? Good coaches teach good execution. ISU's defense week in and week out has executed this year and their offense hasn't. Why?

The defensive staff is excellent and the offensive staff is not.

 

[dafarmer]

Manning should be taking notes on TCU's play calling. They aren't much more talented than us as far as players, but their play calling and execution are excellent.

Their O line is just a little bit better than ours.

 

[CapnCy]

Ah, false start. Bingo!

 

[StLouisClone]

Norton needs to take a couple of those to the house

 

[DSM4Cy]

Huh. Play with tempo and we're moving the ball. Who could ever see that working like it does every single time?

The only time the offense has looked threatening this year is when we’ve played with tempo. The problem is that the whole “complimentary football” thing requires that we play slow and eat clock. It’s obvious that we’ve tried to fit the square peg in the round hole this year and no matter how hard you try, it doesn’t work.

 

[Dowwmeow]

When do we see Becht?

We should have seen him about 4 games ago

 

[ClonesFTW]

Anyone else see the false start on 3rd down coming? Lol so predictable

 

[CycloneDaddy]

False Start …. drink

 

[Darius Bieber]

Undisciplined, bad coaching, all around bad team/program.
