Bret has been very solid the last two games, hopefully it continues.

Looks like Blythe will break Lane's receptions record in 3-4 weeks, and his yards record in 1-2 weeks.

 

[CrossCyed]

Seems to show how nicely our O-Line has performed.

Make it this week with the Blackshirts.

i cringed at this one

 

[crash_zone]

Just remember that these are also supposed to have been the easiest games we will play all year.....not saying that Bret hasn't been better the last 2 games, but it wouldn't surprise me to see his numbers dip (rushing yd/att, passing comp %) once conference play starts.

 

[Drive4cy]

We are also rated 22nd in the nation in total defense.

So as McCarney would say: We have a nationally ranked defense.

wouldn't he have said that if we were ranked 117th?:biglaugh:

So Bret is on pace for 9 sacks this season? Wow! I know we play better teams coming up and that number will very likely be more than 9, but I could see Bret being sacked around 20-25 times, which will still be the lowest since '02. We all know who our QB was then. Seneca was pretty good at avoiding sacks I'd say (insert captain obvious picture *here*), which obviously makes the '02 number look very low. This is probably the best trend I saw in the stats. Very impressive job done so far by this staff with a make-shift o-line at the beginning of the year.

well bret did look alot like seneca in those uniform renderings released yesterday

 

[Drive4cy]

Bret Meyer and Todd Blythe's career stats(3 games,1-2 record) vs Nebraska:


Bret Meyer- 58/118 924 yards, 5 TDs, 3 INTs.

Todd Blythe- 17 receptions, 335 yards, 2 TDs

 

[cyclonez7]

also we rank #1 in least penalties per game with 3.5
good thing to see we are making any stupid penalties

What's even worse is we're being outscored 37 to 0 on points off turnovers. We really need to step it up and take care of the ball in that department.

 

[CyinCo]

The turnovers are the biggest difference right now. Even if we could get that number to zero, it would be a huge improvement.

 

[ISUFan22]

Look at the turnover margins and the W/L records associated with each.

Any correlation? Yeah, I thought so.
