*** Official IOWA STATE vs Kansas Game(Day) Thread ***

Defense is doing its job. Offense came out flat and really need to get inspired

 

[Pope]

Gotta fair catch that

No, not when you're inside the 10 yard line.

 

[cycophagus]

How about throwing to some TEs?

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Everyone here crapping on Dekkers but let’s not pretend like he’s being put in situations where he can succeed. He has a god awful o-line and a god awful offensive coordinator

He's also going to have to throw the ball 60 times today because we don't have any healthy good running backs left

 

[cyclones500]

Defense might have to win this on its own, at the rate.

Brock getting hurt early doesn’t help.

 

[Spam]

Expect us to start running toward our own end zone this drive

 

[Dowwmeow]

Has Remsberg played this year?

CMC said he was “day to day”. Translation: see you in 2023

 

[Darius Bieber]

How about throwing to some TEs?

Our TE room is probably one of our weakest positions right now

 

[Didley]

Nobody runs routes over 8-10 yards. It’s manning. He’s always been dog ****.

I would rather have 3 chances to complete just 1 10+ yard pass, rather than expect to complete all 3 chances at 4 yard throws.

 

[DSM4Cy]

CMC and the staff have earned a tremendous amount of respect for what they’ve done for ISU football, but this program cannot have the attitude like “we’ve arrived.” Because we haven’t. And that attitude without the record to back it up is huge motivation to your opponent every week. We’ve gone from the haters to the hated and often seem shell-shocked when faced with it.

Silas not great in this running system

I actually like Sanders for getting downhill but Silas must do more overall to get the nod.

 

[CoKane]

He needs to improve his pocket awareness by a lot. Dude just stood there and ate a sack when the pocket was totally gone for him earlier.

TBH I don't even think Manning has been that terrible so far. The Oline and Dekkers need to step it up

 

[CYedUp]

No, not when you're inside the 10 yard line.

Ball landed on the 11 and roll to the 6th

 

[Pope]

Hey, if we can go 99.5 yards on Iowa, we can go 93 on Kansas. A 10 minute touchdown drive would be perfect for our defense.

 

[cygrads]

If Leipold is there they will be pretty good.

Amazing what he has done in less than 2 years and at Kansas. CMC has done a great job but Leipold is in a tougher job and killing it in year two.

 

[JRE1975]

Is Norton not available?

Throw a pass longer than 5 yards?

 

[2speedy1]

Something is off with Dekkers. Takes the check-down WAY too fast.

At this point, throwing up deep 50/50 balls every time would be a better strategy.

Having KU in the backfield every play makes a guy want to dump it off quick. Maybe our line needs to step up.
Yet we have barely even hurried their QB.

We can blame Dekkers all we want but a lot is on the play call and the line.

 

[CYEATHAWK]

This isn't dump on Dekkers..........he is a one dimensional QB. He is no threat to run or scramble.....and his long ball is still of question.

The more he gets scouted, the more difficult it will be for him.

 

[KidSilverhair]

Well if this offensive performance keeps up I guess Iowa State fans with Dish won’t have to worry about missing ISU games, since they‘ll all be on ESPN+
