*** Official #22 IOWA STATE vs Colorado Game(Day) Thread ***

[atlantacyclone]

So far not great. Come on guys…

 

[GoSTATE71]

These guys suck, enjoy Memphis boys. Cant tackle to save their life, don’t fill gaps, tackling angles horrible, get pushed around like they’re a JV squad

 

[Raiders70]

This team is cooked

Maybe just a little premature but the injuries definitely seem to be taking a huge toll. Plus for all the hype we haven't defeated a good team yet.

 

[CyGuy5]

I’ve never seen a team that wants to play in a Liberty Bowl as bad as this one does

 

[aeroclone]

If you’ve followed metrics, you’ve known that ranking has been way higher than actual performance. They’re not a bad team, they just aren’t a top 25 team.

Yep. Our ranking was the result of beating KSU and Iowa and the respect those programs have built nationally over the years. Of course since then both those teams have shown they are well below their traditional level, and ISU is mediocre across many offensive and defensive metrics.

Vegas has noticed, hence the lines we have seen the last couple weeks.

Thanks ESPN for the high quality broadcast. I'm still curious who we pissed off.

 

[danvillecyclone]

Settle down.

 

[ImJustKCClone]

What happened to Big Citrus?

 

[CyGuy5]

Holding

Where do the metrics put them?

I'd have said #20-25ish but part of that is I'm not buying college football overall this season.

 

[CYedUp]

Slow slow slow

 

[harimad]

Missed such an obvious hold on that TD.

 

[tim_redd]

Walked in from the 8...

 

[cyatheart]

12 plays, 90 yards

 

[KCyclone2010]

That was so pathetic defense

 

[cyclonez7]

Another 0 point first quarter

 

[CYISFLY]

Walked right in

 

[fsanford]

It appears that CU didn’t take long to adjust to our defense

Once they got away from horrible field position they could open up playbook

35-40ish
