*** Official IOWA STATE vs #21 Iowa Game(Day) Thread ***

[NWICY]

Throw to the end zone 1 ****ing time! Gutless football.

Trying to play close and that's really all it is

 

[Jim Walden’s Follies]

His success is not really in question.

What? Paid $6 million and excluding the COVID season he his just under .500. That isnt my definition of success.

 

[Walden4Prez]

This is Ferentz ball. He is more than happy to play field position, trade punts and kick field goals. Question is.......................is Matt? I guess will find out if he changes.......or is even capable of changing the game plan. If not.........13 points will more than likely be enough for Iowa.

He hasn’t made an in game adjustment in his career.

 

[awd4cy]

Well a

Fiesta bowl season was great. That’s all

wasnt even Campbells best team.

 

[CySmurf]

Uh, maybe the Vikings?!?

No COLLEGE kickers are better than bouncing it off the uprights than Iowa State

 

[Cyhig]

What about this series makes you think we can come back from down 13? It may as well be 35-0.

Football is a momentum game. One play can change the momentum.

Only down 2 scores is not difficult to come back from. Get a good TD drive, force a turnover, and it’s game on.

 

[SportsMan9000]

Turning off the game saved some sanity of mine. Just mind blowing how Campbell is so unprepared for non conference games to begin the year every year

 

[Cy4Lifer]

Do you need to pay someone to be able to snap the ******* ball? How about not call a 3 yard route on 3rd and 7?

Kirk is remembering that 2002 game.
I hope it happens again!!!

Ahh, good times! Winning 5 in a row!!! Seems like just a distant dream!

As an Iowa fan I’m not feeling good about the points they left on the field. Feels like it should be 21-0. Have a feeling this first second half drive is huge for ISU and could decide the game.

 

[Iluvteak]

Do you really think that is the play that was called? Seriously you think Mouser said, let's complete a short crossing route. There are progressions and that is what Becht thought was there. He should have thrown out in the dirt to gain one more play.

Rocco is way off today. Thought he was tougher mentally. He’s major league rattled

 

[ghettocowboy4cy]

Mommy, make it stop!

 

[bustamoveisu]

We need to find and use a QB who is a threat to run.

 

[Cymark86]

Just checked the coaching staff roster, still no special teams coordinator. I know it hasn’t worked very well for MC so far, but I really feel it’s going to pay off in the long run.

What actually happened to the guy from last year? Seems like his leaving is a bit of a mystery.

 

[GTO]

We beat Texas for years and no one gave a crap. Texas joins the SEC and now all sports talking heads act like they're the Tom Brady Patriots.

 

[quasistellar]

I'm pleased with the defense. Offense has obviously been awful, but it will come along. Some of you act like our dreams of a national championship are over.

Let's not forget that Iowa's offense still isn't good, even if it's improved.

 

[ExCyment]

We literally played for a FG, down 13, with a walk on freshman K, in a rivalry game. I love CMC, but WHAT IN THE ACTUAL ****.

Tough spot for his first attempt ever in front of 60+ thousand.

 

[cyatheart]

D has played fine. 13 points included your Offense giving it away 15 yards from your own goal line is fine.

A P4 team should be able to score 7 points in a half

13 points in a half for this defense us more than respectable. This idea that they can hold everyone to 10 points with the offense fumbling around like jackasses is just crazy. Gotta score. It's not the gif damn 85 bears.

In the history of ISU football doesn’t he have more bowl appearances than anyone else and I wouldn’t discount the Fiesta Bowl win. Having said that he had Purdy, Butler, Hall and insane talent.
