*** Official IOWA STATE Vs Baylor Gameday Thread ***

[Doc]

Don't think 20 points is gonna win this game, but I didn't think 14 would win the TCU game either.

Where's

Whats the deal with all these 3rd down routes short of the sticks?

Had to come to the ball on that one. Noland not looking great today.

 

[cayin]

why the fk would we throw it in front of the sticks? and why aren't we throwing down the field to at least let our tall WR make a play?

 

[clonebb]

Wasted opportunity once again by the offense when we need them to substain a drive. Just like last week.

 

[Beyerball]

On 2nd down was a horrible play call...Baylor stacked 8 in the box and knew we were running..i could see that. How u dont audible and take a shot 1:1 deep is beyond me..We had single coverage with no safety over the top on 2nd down...Montgomery gets crushed.

On 3rd down if Zeb makes a good pass its a first down.

 

[BigLame]

Hate the slow developing run play on 2nd down. Go for the 1st there on a PA pass or have a quick, straight ahead run play.

 

[19clone91]

Offense has to start moving the ball or this defense is going to wear out.

I am not used to seeing these long drives from Baylor

 

[cmjh10]

Do we ever throw for the sticks on 3rd down? Ridiculous.

Yes, we are one of the best teams in the country on 3rd down. Calm down

 

[cycophagus]

Very serviceable punt to mid field. Hopefully last week is behind him, but it makes me nervous with Downing punting into the wind.

 

[IcSyU]

Not a huge deal. Flip the field some. Now stop them before field goal range.

We just gave them the ball back at midfield. That's a huge deal. We haven't had good field position all day and when your offense isn't very good that makes life a hell of a lot more difficult.

[ISUAlum2002]

Geez, seems like we've given up 10+ yards on tons of first down plays today.

I could give them a pass if it was just that one time, but its becoming a trend.

 

[jdcyclone19]

Tackle that sob

 

[CentexCyclone]

More bad tackling.

 

[clonebb]

Come on defense!

 

[19clone91]

Our defense is visibly gassed and I can't blame them after the last couple of offensive drives

 

[jdoggivjc]

Defense stood up, at least.

 

[Dandy]

We need to learn to tackle Lil Wayne at the LOS.

 

[19clone91]

One more play defense!
