***Official Iowa State vs Iowa Gameday Thread***

[IcSyU]

This might be the worst ISU football team I've ever seen and that's saying a lot.

You haven't watched any Iowa State football apparently.

Clueless coaches? No coach looks good when they have one of the bottom five offensive and defensive lines in power 5 football.

They don't look especially good. But I'm hoping they'll get better.

this season is not on coaching. most of these players should be in the FCS. Not sure these LB's could tackle a CIML running back

I agree, but I really don't like some of the formations we are running. Just leave the RB in the backfield.

Best thing about our LBs is they are hard to pick out on TV for being out of position since they are rarely in the camera shot!

Even last year's team would have a good shot this year. The Big 12 looks terrible. Too bad we will still lose every game.

Our defense was usually average to good under CPR/Wally, it was just that we regularly had the most 3 and outs of any team in the nation. Not surprised we'd step back on D but disappointed we haven't improved on offense because there was nowhere to go but up on the offensive side of the ball.

No, they weren't. Those defenses caved before the offense could take the field regularly. Burnham was just a sentimental drinking buddy favorite for a bunch of people. The defenses were bad all on their own.

Honestly we are 50/50 on San Jose and Kansas at this point. I'm fully prepared to go 0-12.

I'mma watch some basketball replays.

The offensive line and the fact that ISU will be lucky to ever get an 'average' quaterback means the offense isn't gonna do much. The o-line is just too young too inexperienced.

Going for a walk. Its really nice out.

It is a beautiful day. Went & bought a tree for our front yard.

Does the team look any better this week? That's partially on coaching.

 

[CyGOLFR]

Sorry for logging in late... But this years team must be sponsored by Tampax...

Down 18 and punt on 4th and 1 when a first down would get you momentum....

We look like a HS team this year....UGH

 

[CyGuy5]

Missed tackle, missed tackle, and another missed tackle

Looks like the worse since 2003.

Doubt we'll agree. Most games our offense would string together 3 consecutive 3 and outs at some point. Our offense was horrible pretty much every year. The D had its moments and a few stud players.

Certainly a possibility at this point.

JFC we stink

Elite athleticism. Elite coaching. Sound the sirens.

The defenses got worse as Rhoads tenure went on.

Somehow hold them to a FG and then score, and I won't feel too bad.
