No. 14 Iowa State travels to Cincinnati to play the Bearcats on Saturday at 11 a.m. Ahead of the game, both teams released their first Big 12 injury report of the week.

Coffey is hurt too?

Coffey is hurt too?

He didn't play last week. He was doubtful on the initial report last week. Campbell said "we get him back this week."

 

[Drew0311]

Yikes

 

[cycloneworld]

I was on the “all teams have injuries” team (true) but this is the second straight week where our injury list is twice as long as the other team…

I think I remember him playing in the second game but that's about it.

I'm excited to see the depth we've built.

7 of the people on our list are people who aren't even going to play if they weren't injured

Coffey is hurt too?

I’m fairly certain Coffey has been injured since camp and the fact he is listed as questionable is an improvement.

 

[CyState85]

Who are our top 4 corners right now then?

on the injury report?

There was some nonsense talk about strength and conditioning, but I do wonder about the 3-3-5 and it’s sustainability throughout a long conference season. The higher percentage of responsibility for run stopping on our defensive backfield probably has at least some impact on the injury report.

With both starting CBs out, 3-3-5 will be a permanent thing. No choice, now.

 

[harimad]

Some metrics nerd somewhere probably has a stat for tackles made by DBs as a percentage of overall team tackles. I’m guessing we’d be among the leaders, but I have no numbers, just pulling it out of my you know what.

It's a square, if we're lucky

Cooper was hurt during a non contact drill in practice and KCC and Jontez were injured on down field plays they would be involved in for any possible defense we could play. I think you could make a case that our Star safety takes more pounding since he is the alley defender on so many run fits, but our current big injuries don't seem to be scheme related.

 

[JRE1975]

So I assume that good Cincinnati TE will be back this week for our game.

Who are our top 4 corners right now then?

Tre Bell
Quentin Taylor
Beni Ngoyi

And that's it

Bell looked really good last week. Excited for his future

Taylor was running with the 1's before Cooper moved to corner. David Coffey got lots of hype from the outgoing seniors and many thought he was a candidate to start. We will be okay. Also, this gives the opportunity for some of the freshman to get an increased role in spot duty.
