***Official ISU vs. TT Gameday Thread***

HOW DID THEY NOT FALL FOR THE PLAY ACTION!!? I thought for sure we were running it on 3rd and goal from the 6 out of I-formation.

 

[Cytation]

Weak weak weak

 

[UraMallas]

A lead? What's that?

 

[Dandy]

Well at least we have the lead.

 

[andybernard]

Over/under on how much time it takes them to score here??

 

[UraMallas]

Is this the first time we've had a lead in a conference game?

 

[ISUFan22]

17 unanswered points. I'll take it.

I don't blame you for forgetting the Kstate game. It seems like years ago. Also, weren't we ahead of Texas?

 

[CyArob]

A halftime lead! It's a minor miracle!

 

[UraMallas]

Ah, yes. That was long ago. I don't remember being ahead of Texas.

 

[CYISFLY]

Rhoads is not the gambler he once was. What the hell u get 3, but 7 goes alof further. Oh well we have a lead at halftime that hasn't happened in a long time

You take the points there. Period.

This. Being that close and coming up empty would be pretty deflating to a team who's seen plenty go wrong this season. Take the points and the lead into the locker room and don't think twice.

 

[Rabbuk]

people saying go for 7 are not intelligent.

 

[CloneIce]

Yeah definitely need the FG there. Not so sure about the play calls in the red zone today. Really though, if he throws a catchable fade to Lazard that probably works, SR usually throws that too deep, needs to go more toward back shoulder.

Nice 2nd quarter though. DBs are playing well.

 

[ISUAgronomist]

So nice to see us winning!

 

[jdoggivjc]

Obviously you take the points there, but watch us lose by a differential where you could say "Hey - had we gotten the TD there..."

Had we fielded that KO at OK St, we would have been tied or ahead in over half of our conference games. Spin? Yes.

 

[WIB]

Just saw BDK at the game. Somehow he lasted through the first quarter.

 

[dirtyninety]

The kick is correct call. Glad for the players.
the cynic in me is playing out scenarios of how we lose this one......blocked drop kick attempt? sideline violation on our bench negating a winning score? Unsportsmenlike on our mascot giving TT a chance to re-kick a fieldgoal to win.

Good: I like the emotion from Sam today. It is an emotional game. Like Bibbs and hope he gets NFL attention with his highlights. Good fan attendence.
Bad: The "first down" guy. Not having 49er uniforms.
