    A strong rushing offense alone will not result in more future wins.

    Ya, I suck at remembering. K-State was the only team having more TOP than ISU, so 11-1. My son as been compiling a ton of statistics on all of the big 12 games this year and when you look at them holistically it doesn't look good for teams that want to slow it down and primarily run the ball...

    A strong rushing offense alone will not result in more future wins.

    You are correct, my memory slipped, but the point was really more of the Air Raid offense opening up the game for the running backs and OU went 8 and 5, 5 and 4 in the big 12, this year they are currently 11 and 1. So here are some stats for you. The current Big 12 rushing offense: team...

    A strong rushing offense alone will not result in more future wins.

    That only works if you score every possession and keep the other team from scoring, When your opponents average scoring drive is less than 2 minutes who cares about time of possession? BTW, if the win/loss record was time of possession, the Cyclones would be 12 and 0. That's right, we had...

    A strong rushing offense alone will not result in more future wins.

    Actually, I believe most fans were hoping that we would run up tempo a lot more, because that opened up the run game. Ever wonder why we never scored in the second half, especially after having a lead? Stopped running up tempo, passing sputtered, and the run game stopped. Mike Warren got most...

    A strong rushing offense alone will not result in more future wins.

    The statistics JP quoted were true, even in the Big 12, but like all statistics if you don't look at the entire picture you will draw the wrong conclusions. Oklahoma is a perfect example, last year they had a tremendous rushing offense. Perine had over 2700 yds rushing. This year Bob Stoups...

    Is it really coaching?

    For most of the coaches in college football, you are probably right. But, then there are those special coaches the literally turn a program around after the first game. Take Michigan for example, Brady Hoke had a great resume coming into Michigan and quickly crashed the program. He later said...

    Just throwing this out there....

    Oops sorry, my bad. I had heard that during the IU - OSU game and then thought I verified in on the IU Website, but obviously got something wrong.

    Just throwing this out there....

    BTW, Messingham is the OC at Indiana and they are 4-3 right now. They lost to Ohio State 34-37, Pen State 29-7, and blew a 28 point lead, to lose to Rutgers 55-52. Messingham's big problem at ISU was that he was trying to run Herman's offense, not his. Also, Sturdy is Air Raid offense, not...

    TV Tailgating Setup

    I've used this system for the last 2 years, it's actually fairly easy to set-up, even without a SatFinder. Using just the tuning capabilities of the turn and TV, I always had it up and running within 10 minutes. Only way to get DirecTv in HD format. Since I was in the RV lot and always the...

    Tailgating for the ISU vs. UNI Game...

    Actually the park rules are simple, Gates open at 7:00AM or 6 hours prior to the game, which ever is earlier. Since the UNI game is at 7PM, the gates to parking will open at 7:00AM. So be there!!!!

    Mutcherson?

    While I don't disagree with tolerance about attitude, I totally agree with CPR eliminating the cancer from within that Coe and Irvine brought. CPR leniency cost him several other players that quit at the end of last season because they were allowed to miss team meetings, show up to practice...

    Farniok: Critical fans 'don't know what they're talking about'

    Really, I thought it was obvious when I stated "support them at all cost and complain quietly to the AD"

    Farniok: Critical fans 'don't know what they're talking about'

    Actually if you stop and think about it, every time a you or another fan goes off complaining about the team, they suck, it's unacceptable, etc. etc. you are going off an every individual of the team. At least everyone that care. Imagine, someone saying your family sucks, they are not calling...

    Farniok: Critical fans 'don't know what they're talking about'

    Better yet, the fans should never take on the players. Fans should shut up and cheer for their team, give money (lot's more than they do), and complain quietly to the AD. If they don't like what's happening, give more money so you have more say with the AD or simply fade away and go find...

    How far are we willing to go to win?

    You are trying to compare two totally different things, the first one is win at all cost including lying, cheating, etc. The second, is the players ability to follow the rules of the team. If you have players that allowed to live by a different set of rules, then soon you will not have a team...

    MONDAY MUSINGS: If Rhoads has future, he needs public backing from AD

    The problem wasn't that Rhoads punished those two, they both had there third and forth chances. The real problem was that he did not punish them soon enough, so he could replace them. Both of those guys got away with a lot of things, which cause about 10 others to leave the team before Rhoads...

    Strength and Conditioning

    BTW, this years team is the strongest cyclone team on record. Not saying that's good enough, but they are much stronger than they were last year.
