After watching us get competely out played in every facet of the game I'm going to bet my house for LSU to cover because any team that let's us play with them is going to get destroyed by the #1 team.
started out that way

The O-line needs to significantly improve before we take the next step.Skill players mean squat without an OL.
Spot on.The O-line needs to significantly improve before we take the next step.
Curious how u can say 'good coaching`? I did not see good coaching at any point this year.
Spot on.
Inability to convert short yardage situations is maddeningly unacceptable. For the life of me I can’t understand snapping out of shotgun in these situations. QB sneak is traditionally very successful yet we refuse to try it.
And why isn’t there a RB screen in our playbook? Draw play? Our offense is horribly predictable. Someone needs to light a fire under the asses of our O-Line or fire the position coach and/or strength coordinator. O-Line is the backbone of every offense- ours is easily the weakest link on the team.
Just saw this. I just parroted you on another thread....apologies.The O-line needs to significantly improve before we take the next step.
Moral of this story? DON'T DO WEED!! You hurt more than yourself.
I never said they were getting blown out by those teams but going 1-7 against them isn't cutting it either. Last year they needed a miracle comeback just to beat a clearly less talented K-State team.
Line play > Skill players every time.No it's not cutting it but I wouldn't say ISU has been clearly more talented than many teams they've played, let alone KSU.
ISU in 2017 held KSU to less than 100 yards of offense before the 4th quarter and a defensive lapse was the difference vs. Iowa. They played just fine vs. those types of teams. Just a little less fundamentally sound.
Are you trying to get him killed?If youn haven't wander Council Bluffs walmart (I-80 location) it needs to be on your bucket list.
Thanks. Now I have this song running through my head ...And that’s life. You get punched in the face and you fall down. You lose and figure out a way to make sense of the ashes. This team was so much better than most ISU teams, but it just didn’t quite have it together. Good players, good coaching, but not quite there.
Correction. OU got destroyed. We mearly received a beat down.
Thanks. Now I have this song running through my head ...
IMO, coming in I knew ND was the better team but I felt we had a shot. We played good at times, moved the ball, got some stops. But you can’t make mistakes against teams like this. Two fumbles the first two drives knocked the wind out of our sails. A false start when first and goal, a dropped TD pass (tough catch tho), weird 4th down execution, missed assignment on the wide open TE are things you can’t do and expect to have a chance at an upset.
