Why didn't we go for the tie? We were stopping them most of the second half.

Go for 2 on the road

 

[CyGuy5]

I have to ask why did we not play for OT there? I don’t hate the idea of going for 2 but our D finally seemed to figure something out

edit: I should clarify, I liked going for 2 but I was finally starting to feel confident in our D. I don’t have any issues with us going for it

 

[CoKane]

5-4. We're 5-4. All off those losses are preventable if we didn't step all over our own **** at every chance possible. So sick of this ****

Purdy tied the single season record for TD passes tonight.

 

[CyCloned]

ISU never quit, just had a few too many mistakes. Need to win out.

 

[Blandboy]

The missed TD opp after the first and goal was the game. Or, the missed picks. Or, the 100+ yards of penalties.

A lot different when that offense gets the ball from the 25 each time. We would have probably kept scoring too and had to go for two in OT eventually anyway. Great call to go for it. Just wish Brock would have seen Kolar.

Tough ending, but Clones made this way closer than I thought it would be. But no moral victories at this point either.

That illustrates how bad our football history is.

Never quit, just started too late.

 

[CYEATHAWK]

Had the momentum and had to go for it. Inches from a tip pass on OU's first TD.....two dropped INT's and this so close of an ending. Just wasn't meant to be.

 

[IASTATE07]

I like the call for two. We had all the momentum

 

[CentexCyclone]

I’ll give it to them for going for it. Pettway has to come up with that.

Maybe, but was a pretty tight window. Kolar was more open.

 

[cyrocksmypants]

100% don’t fault them for going for it. Had the mo. Just couldn’t finish it off. Hell Of a team effort that whole fourth quarter.

 

[jcisuclones]

****. Well let’s kick the **** out of Texas last week. We showed we have it!

 

[madguy30]

Anybody that questions going to 2 I don’t want to hear from

I would have been fine with either. Momentum with ISU makes going for 2 fine. I also liked the way the D had Hurts screwed up for OT.

 

[every_yard]

Tough loss. Let’s win out.

 

[atlantacyclone]

You have to love the grit... we really had them...

 

[HandSanitizer]

4 losses by a total of 11 points. ugh.

 

[CentexCyclone]

Mad respect for the Cyclones in the 2nd half. Just let OU make one too many plays. That TD to close the 1st half was a back breaker.
