*** Official IOWA STATE VS #9 Oklahoma Game(Day) Thread ***

[ISUCyclones2015]

oh you’re right, I just used Liberty as the example because people love to rip them apart

There was a guy in the TCU Baylor game thread today that said something like "Baylor fans dry their hands off with the decorative towels at Christmas time" and got insta downvoted to oblivion. They can't even take an obvious joke trash talk

OU may have talent, but the Cyclones clearly had more heart.

Ou really doesn’t have much more talent when you consider how over matched ou is defensively. There just aren’t mismatches out there anymore.

 

[sheepplucker]

A lot of people crying about the two point conversion call.. I like it would rather they tried to run it in though. Win it and get the heck out of there. We don’t win it in overtime

With a some these comments, it’s easy to tell who has never been a player or coach before.

Yep

It was a quick play and snap decision. Pettway has made more tough catches than Kolar

I think you’re wrong about making the tough catches...with Kolar, it’s a first down or TD.

They ban for saying anything about Baylor. It’s ridiculous, and I’ve been banned 2x for saying something about Baylor

Well, Baylor should be a bad word in the English language so maybe there's something to that.

 

[Cat Stevens]

Many reasonable football observers would argue that's exactly when you should go for 2.

I understood the call. I was disappointed that Brock looked right through a wide open clutch target in Kolar. Game winner staring him right in the face on the goaline, and he went with the small window to Pettway.

he had a blitz bearing down on him. He didn’t have a chance to go through any progressions

Oh yeah it’s bad. I think I said something along the lines of how the Big 12 will do everything in their power to keep them unbeaten and got like -50 in minutes with some good old hateful comments from the Baylor faithful

 

[cyatheart]

Really just had to find the tight ends more, surprised that wasn’t his first read there. Ou has nobody that could remotely cover either of our tight ends. Obvious mismatch that should have been exploited there.

 

[LincolnWay187]

Just think if we still had Hakeem this year. Oh well. Hope we take out the horns.

Those fans were awfully quiet when Baylor was absolute trash a few years ago... Including when they lost to UTSA lmao

 

[harimad]

Agree. Terrible coaching decision to go for two when all the momentum was in our favor. Very stupid.

 

[Cat Stevens]

even in that season we had our fair share of heartbreak with Iowa, Okie Lite and K-State

it takes a long time to overcome the history and stigma of a place with the history our football program has.

Hopefully, Matt sees this as his k state, and sticks around for a few more years to see what is possible here. We’ve never ever found out how much you can win at Iowa State.

this is the group to do it.

With some these comments, it’s easy to tell who has never been a player or coach before.

The physical and mental parts of a game are something that is hard to explain and is easy to say 'why not?' from the couch, along with some decisions etc.

Imo it's in the right to wonder why an OC pulls out some weird nonsensical calls when things have been rolling with simplicity over and over again.

 

[cyrocksmypants]

With pressure in his face Purdy may not have even seen how open Kolar was, especially since Pettway was the primary read. And even with the pressure he still put that ball where Pettway should have caught it.

Kolar was just making his move as a blitzer was coming down the throat of Purdy. Wasn’t a bad play by Purdy, IMO.

 

[harimad]

I just got banned from the college football subreddit (5days I think) for saying Baylor is the luckiest team this year with the worst fan base lol

What do you expect? That kind of talk is very clearly against their subreddit rules.

 

[khardbored]

there’s a huge difference between emotional and acting the fool that the same people do every single time.

Everybody plays the fool . . . sometimes.

You shouldn't get banned for speaking the truth. I've never posted in it evidently they have a pretty tight trash talk policy?

Pettway has made some damn tough first down catches and he is a big target too

It doesn’t really apply, except for when you talk about the touchy programs and Baylor is the big one. It’s a joke but I enjoy posting there
