*** Official Iowa Vs IOWA STATE Gameday Thread ***

[spitfyr36]

That worked for Bill Snyder playing Prairie View AM while he built up that program. This is a whole different situation. That was lame DAn McCArney coaching crap there.....Are you telling me these coaches can't coach a scenario with 50 seconds left they can't run a couple plays to see if they can get 40 yards or so PRIOR to running out the clock. Jeesh....lame.

At least we know the talking point if ISU ends up losing by 1 score.
I think they should have been a little more aggressive, but this coaching staff actually makes 2nd half adjustments so I'm not going to be too upset yet

 

[Doc]

Really liked their adjustments last week so hopefully it happens and pays off here.

4 point game isn't a big deal...yardage is concerning although I missed the 1st half.

We're only being outgained by 30 or so, and Iowa's penalties have made that up. The difference is really they got it into the end zone when we didn't.

 

[1976]

We are clearly the much better team. We just need to impose our will.

 

[CRcyclone6]

Poor tackling and the secondary hasn't been very good both games.

 

[jdoggivjc]

I miss Sam Ponder at ISU games. She had to go and make a name for herself and work her way up to replacing Chris Berman, though.

 

[stormchaser2014]

This sure is a long TV timeout.

 

[HoustonClone]

Good lord, I said it was going to get ugly if we didn't do better against their run. Do you dispute that?

You are new here, you might want to go back and look at some of my posts before you wank on me as a doom and gloom guy. I may be one of the most eternally optimistic Cyclone fans in existence.

I'll just drink some of your unicorn piss and I am sure I will feel better.

So, I will offer an olive branch here and agree that IF we don't do better against the run, the second half will be difficult. For the record, I'm not exactly "new here," just don't post a lot. So yes, join me in the "unicorn piss" today. The Cyclones need it.

Lazard has 3 catches but for only 9 yards. We need to chuck a deep pass or two, even if we don't connect, to at least make Iowa think about it on defense.

 

[isu999]

They were trying to catch Iowa off guard with an uptempo offense, and you can't do that and change QBs at the same time.

If im recalling correctly wasent there a tv timeout or some timeout during that? Could be wrong

Noticed that last week at least.
And just noticed it on that 2nd play.

Why would there be a random TV timeout between two offensive plays?

 

[dirtyninety]

They are toying with us....

 

[jdoggivjc]

Stanley /= Alex Smith

 

[atlantacyclone]

Good thing their QB isn't very accurate.

 

[I-stateTheTruth]

If Stanley were more accurate, Iowa would have 2 more TDs.

 

[Cardinal and Gold]

D line got tired on that last long drive. Couldn't get to the qb and exposed our d backs man coverage. Towards the end of the long drives between the 10-20 yard line we may need to switch to a zone and add a linebacker.

 

[isu999]

nice 3 and out!

 

[CyArob]

Good...good

 

[jdoggivjc]

So much for Clones21's theory that Iowa was going to march down the field and make this a 21-10 game opening the half.

 

[CloneLawman]

Nice 3 and out. Now we drive it and score!!
