*** Official #16 IOWA STATE vs #15 Arizona State Big 12 Championship Game(Day) Thread ***

Out

whats your point? So we roll over in the locker room and say screw it ?

No! But saying the players are giving up or not trying isn't fair

 

[David Freshman1982]

Such an ugly defensive effort. 30+ yard offensive plays from ASU almost at-will. And our guys LITERALLY can't make a tackle. Yes, embarassing is the right word.

 

[heitclone]

ASU started blitzing or stunting and had their ears pinned back. ISU has been a miss up front on offense the last two possessions.

Yea, they caught us off guard right before the missed FG, they changed stuff up and we couldn't adjust. Hopefully we can figure it out. They started being the aggressor, we've kind of wilted.

It seems like we don't find ways to get Noel the ball down the field anymore. He has 1 catch today.

 

[bos]

Yeah, this game will tighten up. I just hope your end of half screw up doesn’t create another Iowa State “what if”. I’m tired of those.

Would LOVE to see a solid stop right off the bat

For the Heacock lovers: why does everyone love a guy that runs a 3 man front against teams with outstanding running games? It doesn’t work and he doesn’t make adjustments. ASU only got better as the game went on because Heacock is too stubborn to change anything.

He's generally done a great job especially with the players he has available through the years and ISU is 10-2.

'Just play a 4 man front' is like in basketball the first two TJ's teams when so many wanted anyone benched for missing shots like there were 2 guys that could come in and do better in the same position.

ISU's had a hard enough time staying healthy all over the defense to start so I'm not sure where they get the personnel to restructure the defense in one week after a whole season.

 

[CoachHines3]

Can Joy and/or Colleen tackle Skattebo?

 

[Walden4Prez]

That ball throwing thing was pretty anticlimactic

 

[ianoconnor]

I can't recall ever seeing a sideline reporter wear such a casual outfit

 

[ISUTex]

This ball toss is dumb. Put them back five more yards and make them actually throw the football. Or make them kick field goals.

 

[cyclones12321]

Why did we not try a Hail Mary on the last 2 seconds

 

[Dannynoonan]

I wish TJ could coach our football team.

 

[ISUTex]

Uh no. ASU is nothing like Iowa. Are you serious?

ASU has a mobile QB.

 

[bluestarcyclone]

THIS. Darius Bieber ruins every game thread with his junior high BS and all his stupid "win" likes on negative posts. I would love nothing more than mods to finally get rid of this POS.

worst part is I think he was banned for awhile at one point. Should have stayed that way

 

[cincinnaticyclone]

Why did we not try a Hail Mary on the last 2 seconds

Because i’m convinced that most of the time Campbell has no idea how much time is on the clock

 

[Thomasrickj]

I get what you’re saying, but Heacock seems to be wanting ASU to run more. We may not have a good fourth lineman, but he doesn’t try to run a blitz or pressure the line with the other guys.

 

[KidSilverhair]

Skattebo on pace for over 600 yards of offense.

Feels more like this

 

[exCYtable]

We're still gonna win this game.

 

[Walden4Prez]

Why did we not try a Hail Mary on the last 2 seconds

It rhymes with ‘wussy’

 

[Tpups21]

Still feels like ISU wastes too many downs by trying to run the ball.
