*** Official IOWA STATE vs #23 Texas Game(Day) THREAD ***

[jsb]

Defensively we certainly are. We are IMO a top 5-8 defensive nationally thru 6.1 games

For sure. I think it was our defense that made Texas look bad in the first quarter. Not that Texas is bad.

 

[LtRaczack]

I had to look it up, the head recruiter for Iowa State for Kolar was Alex Golesh, why did we let this guy go?

The same reason Johnny Majors left, Rocky Top needed him.

 

[NorthCyd]

John Walters just said "It's been a sharp start for the Cyclones!"

I'm glad we're leading, but not exactly what I would call sharp by either team.

I think Texas was planning on using all 4 downs there.

 

[Darius Bieber]

Nice!

 

[AllInForISU]

Still wish we would be more creative with misdirection or play action. Great drive for Dekkers though.

Can’t run true play action or honestly misdirection out of shotgun. So that won’t happen.

 

[CoKane]

Very lucky that went incomplete

 

[VoiceOfReason]

No one's starting to believe this is actually happening, are they? Asking for a friend.

 

[ClonerJams]

Got lucky there. I'll take it.

 

[ianoconnor]

What a terrible throw

 

[Prone2Clone]

Ewers is elite.

For sure. I think it was our defense that made Texas look bad in the first quarter. Not that Texas is bad.

My biggest worry for the defense is that just if the offense can't get it going they'll get worn down - not just in the game but the rest of the season .

oh boy, are we lucky that was such a crappy throw

 

[Thomasrickj]

Missed coverage. Good thing that throw was garbage by Ewers.

 

[mynameisjonas]

Nice choke **** Texas

 

[simply1]

Whew, let’s roll again offense!

 

[LtRaczack]

Ok let's see that opened up offense with some speed we may have the Shorthorns on their heels!!

 

[CoKane]

Hey, we kept a screen after the 1st drive!

 

[clonedude]

Whew... got very lucky there.

 

[HFCS]

Nice throw from greatest arm in fb history.

Came into this thinking no way. Now I'm thinking maybe. We're actually doing different things on offense and Texas is doing bad Texas things again
