TCU postgame thread

[CloneLawman]

Let’s face it. TCU was the better team. Penalties went in our favor. TCU made some stupid turnovers. Our offense was awful. Somehow our D kept us in the game but it wasn’t enough. And the schedule only gets tougher. We are ISU!

The schedule doesn't only get tougher. We have Oklahoma and TCU past us. True, there are other good teams in the Big 12, but not all tougher than the 2 we have faced.

I miss Manning

And the 14 that we scored last year against TCU?

Things weren’t better with Manning, which isn’t necessarily reassuring.

Any word on Montgomery's injury?

It’s not exactly a one game problem.

Things are hard enough when you have OL that’s still developing and playing a walkon, but it doesn’t help that we’re playing checkers in a game of chess.

Without a OL that can consistently run block and pass protect we are going to have to be the best checkers players we can because we won't be playing chess until that OL is better.

Quite frankly who cares how good the d was on 3rd down, they held TCU to 17 points. That's a good game for the d in my opinion.

*10 points

The offense really hurts to watch. The defense is really fun to watch.
The schedule sucks balls

Any word on Montgomery's injury?

It's just a re-aggrivated stinger. He got it the first series against OU and it's been bothering him since then (that's why he played sparingly in the 2nd hal last week).

I've been a fan of Noland but 14/28 averaging less than 3 yards an attempt are some hideous numbers.

good correction

Doesn't sound good

He needs to scramble. Just the threat changes the D.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Woah buddy don't get upset at me.

Not upset at all. Every thought doesn’t need its own thread. Cleaner that way.

Agree, and 7 of those came on the fumble scoop and score. Was tough we allowed so many third down conversions, but giving up 10 points on defense is great! Our defense is very good. They did not lose this game or the eiu game.

I know the type of team that CMC eventually wants to have, and his offensive playcalling reflects that. slowly grinding away at defenses and eventually out-muscle the other team.

But sadly, our offensive line is still a year or two away from being able to do that yet for some reason he hasn't realized this in regards to playcalling

 

[spitfyr36]

Weird WR routes all day. And Zeb was just plain bad today.

 

[Redman97]

Mobile QB would change the whole dynamic.

 

[harimad]

Put it all here folks

 

[bosco]

Actually thought the OL pretty well against a good DL.

Who was the genius calling plays tonight?
