*** Official #10 Iowa vs #9 IOWA STATE Game(Day) THREAD ***

While I agree with everything Kirk just said, including my own 20-17 score prediction, it's funny to hear him educating the national audience on what they're in for with this one.

Gonna be fun, but tough on the eyes.

Touchback!!!!

 

[atlantacyclone]

There it is! Nice kick!

Defense may have to win this one today for us

Defense will do its part. Early yet. Offense will strike!

I heart that drive. It showed lots of potential.

Defense is playing really loose. I think the offense will benefit from getting the points and loosen up a bit also.

Is holding a shoe up during kickoffs a thing?

 

[ZuriCyclone]

Survived one quarter, three more to go

 

[I-stateTheTruth]

Held them to 5 yards passing in the first quarter. Great effort by Mike, Will and the guys so far.

Dang, Kolar was breaking open to the back of the endzone.... but still, we got points!

I said the same thing.

It's nice having a defense that can have that kind of a battle with Iowa. And I wouldn't say a defensive battle is necessarily tough on the eyes - as long as it's actually good defense and not the offense being a total cluster****.

Line showed that they can move Iowa some. That's gonna help their confidence and the play-calling.

ISU Key Kicks, brought to you by Febreze!

I will gladly take 3 more quarters just like that one.

 

[HFCS]

Hawks got the ball to start and have 14 yards.

1st Quarter:

Purdy: 5 of 9
Petras: 1 of 4

Neither great.

 

[cyrocksmypants]

Be a nice time here for our first forced turnover against Iowa since the Eisenhower administration.

 

[DeereClone]

It's Iowa. We more than likely weren't going to have a Big 12-style shootout.

We are Iowa State, we likely weren’t going to get in a shootout, regardless of opponent.

1st Quarter:

Purdy: 5 of 9
Petras: 1 of 4

Neither great.

I put the blame on the receivers and o line not purdy

 

[Neptune78]

We just need a lead at half and then turn it over to Heacock.
