i hate to perpetuate our never ending amount of "what if" posts but.... what if Arob and AA were in this game. I think we'd be taking a knee going into the half looking at a double digit lead.

Don't really care, just want to make adjustments for the 2nd half and come out with a W. Don't care who does it at all.
 
I am sick of you optimistic, half-game winners. Have you been brainwashed by Maccarney???!?!?!? We should have chunked a pass or two up there to try and get a penalty, or if nothing else get Tiller some deep looks for real-game-reps. Lord. Taking a knee SUCKS!!! I am ****** and I am boycotting the second half if they come out and go all fishy passive and try not to lose. Trust me, if we putz around with Jr. high run plays for the third quarter and only have a 7point or less lead at the end of the third quarter, we will lose.

How can anyone complain about the score right now, or the team's play? Your experienced starting quarterback is out, your leading conference rusher is out, and your team is up at halftime at the visitor's hellhole. Nothing to complain about.......especially after the last few years! Come on people! Geeze

Im not complaining about the score, or our offense. Our defense? Plenty to complain about, and if not for a few key turnovers by nebraska, this game would be ugly already.

That said, i'll take a 9-7 lead in lincoln at half, no matter how ugly it is.

This is the most unbelievable ISU game I have ever seen. For once, all the bounces are going ISU's way.

That's EXACTLY the thought I was having! For a second, I thought the tip-drill interception would actually be reversed because... why? WE ARE ISU.

This is perhaps the only sub-3 point lead I've ever felt optimistic about going into the half. Lots to be pessimistic about, but I'm positively amazed that the score is 9-7 with two of our top playmakers missing.

I'll take whatever luck we can create. Coach Paul Rhoads has this team playing as hard as I've ever seen. This may be the most resilient team I've ever seen us field. We need to finish this game smart. Ball security will be huge. In the meantime, I'm hoping we can make some serious adjustments at half and come out with an offense that will control the clock and make some serious plays.

I'm really proud to be a damn CYCLONE right now. I've felt good all week about this game, and would love to come out on the right side of a close one here. Go STATE!

So what was the prognosis on those 2? I haven't heard anything about it during the game (on radio).
 
"Jerome Tiller finds somebody in the endzone"

Can't even take the time to lookup the receivers name? FSN is really making the move to amateur hour, isn't it?
 
very pleased with the first half. Nebraska is playing like the Iowa State under Chizik. For 2nd half adjustments, we NEED to get some pressure on the QB. It seems like Lee has all day to stand back there and throw, its just a good thing that he sucks. Our offense needs to get a groove, Tiller just doesn't look that comfortable out there but has managed to be mediocre. Anyone who has called for Tiller to be the starter over Arnaud, what youre seeing today is what you will get out of him the rest of this year if he were to start. As for Mahoney, I know his kick got blocked but we gotta put someone else in there for the PATs and just let him handle the longer field goals. We have 2 other guys on the team that can kick the extra point besides him. (Guyer & Romey)

And that is why you do not coach football or have probably ever played football.

I was going to say the big 10 network would set that bar, but then i remembered who runs that as well..

Going against your namesake there, bud. :wink:

I think you're quite blind to the circumstances. We're missing our starting signal caller. And we are minus the top running back in the Big 12. And yet we are WIN-NING.

TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT!
