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

[clonedude]

That sack is on Dekkers. Have to feel that pressure.

So Dekkers should be dropping back and counting to himself.... "one thousand one".... and then just chucking it into the stands? Because that's about how much time he had there. That's not enough time to be able to find anyone.

Love how this coaching staff was settling for a long FG attempt on the road with an average kicker at best. Great strategy there.

 

[mynameisjonas]

Definitely not the kickers fault we didn’t get three points there. Carry-on everyone.

 

[CycloneJoe6]

Is Eli Sanders hurt as well? Why is Silas the only RB getting carries?

 

[Cloned4Life]

Why does it seem like CMC is always thinking “how can we sneak a W out this (and every) game out by with :02 left on the clock?”

Because that’s exactly the type of game he wants. He wants to be Iowa.

 

[NoCreativity]

This team is laughable. Two years ago we go from thinking we are going to be the big dogs of the conference with Oklahoma to wondering when we'll actually win another Big 12 game.

That’s why I would’ve been okay going for a first down. Don’t want to see much of Gilbert until he works on a lot of stuff.

He had a great game last week.

Alright well I’ve defended HD a lot but my goodness giving up the sack on 2nd down is beyond awful. Totally inexcusable. And no, that’s not a “he’s young, he’ll learn!!” mistake. It’s just a total **** up by him that cost his team dearly.

He certainly has a lot to learn and a long way to go

 

[CyGuy5]

I mean it was a given he wasn’t making that. No reason to even try

I was also told Norton was the starter

 

[CycloneDaddy]

But that's why this season has been so hard. We can move the ball between the 30s but then come up empty almost every time.

lack of running game really shows up in the red zone.

 

[BigLame]

Lol we have them on their heels then we run 2 crappy plays

This. All day

Should probably figure out that Iowa has good special teams.

 

[clonedude]

Well, that time Miller missed his assignment

He didn't miss his assignment.... he got physically abused and manhandled.

 

[t-noah]

Bwahaha.

This team sucks so hard.

Not so much. Texas is very good.

We sucked the last 2 games, not this one so far. We are getting beat (so far) but are showing a good amount of improvement and some rays of hope.

Signs of offensive life, and hope, that's what I was looking for today.

And btw, game not over yet.

 

[StLouisClone]

Offense bogs down almost every time we get close to the red zone. At least defense stepped up.

 

[Thomasrickj]

Good defense stop. Offense needs to step up now.

 

[Darius Bieber]

Lmao Texas watched the punt roll backwards

 

[Althetuna]

Nice job D.

#5 was wide open in the flat if he'd simply reacted quicker.

Our program managed COVID better than the other Big 12 programs. That season ended up being fool's gold because of it.
