There we go, Brock! Nice patience!

Hell of a stop & start there. Brock has looked really good this half.

Again I don't think we've been that bad other than an ability to open field tackle ( not just related to us) and inability to contain a mobile QB (again, not only repeated to us)


- We're up 18
- Young kickers have avoided mistakes
- Few penalties
- 7 for 11 on 3rd downs
- We've averaging 5 yards a carry
- They're running backs have 9 yards on 7 carries
-50% completion
- 3 points came off a bad pick and a 7 yard field
- They're at 33% 3rd down conversion


Again, other than they're QB making something out of nothing and our secondary not being as good as I'd like or having 9 sacks...

where have we sucked? will we have ups and downs? Yes. But if you look at the game in entirety, there is not one area I'd say we sucked. Given the amount of change - this game has gone really really well

Didn't say we sucked today, I said we suck in openers - which traditionally we have. We've looked decent today. Not world beaters and not bad, pretty decent for an opener.

Brock, very quietly, has nearly 100 yards on the ground.

 

[madguy30]

Ok starting to feel more like an opener should.

 

[ComCY]

Spread was 37.5 for context.

and you believe that for a season opener?

 

[iowastatefan1929]

Brock came to play this year.
Get Norton back for Baylor and we have a legit 1-2 punch.
Iowa would take Dekkers in less than a half second.

 

[StLouisClone]

Brock weared em down in 2nd half

 

[CycloneVet]

Just saw Remsburg with a knee brace on , uggh

 

[atlantacyclone]

Let Brock get his 100 and pull him…

 

[iowastatefan1929]

Where are the haters now

 

[Acylum]

and you believe that for a season opener?

Never for a second. Took SEMO to cover.

 

[khardbored]

let 21 punch it in

your wish is granted!

 

[iowastatefan1929]

See him in October?

 

[stewart092284]

For context

- New tight ends
- Two to three new starters in the secondary
- replace Rose and Hummel at LB
- 2 new DL starters
- missing maybe our best offensive tackle
- entirely new starting kickers
- 1st start for Dekkers


etc


and we're up 25. is SEMO great. No... but I've seen worse teams. I've seen worse FBS teams.

Am I 100% happy? No. Not at all. But for week one.... this is easily the best I've seen us play

 

[khardbored]

Mangino spotting!

What? Where? Why?

 

[iowastatefan1929]

No soft coverage next week, Petras is miserable but they will dink and dunk all day if its open. Its their only choice.

 

[KidSilverhair]

Okay, how do they just stop the play for the fair catch signal when the returner started to run? That’s a penalty!

 

[t-noah]

Did Cartevious get injured in the 1st half? Anything serious?
