I just think if we protect the ball we should beat Baylor.

Holy ****, I didn't realize ISU hasn't scored a point in the 1st quarter this year. That stat is amazing.

I say this with tongue in cheek because we shouldnt try to hurt anyone. That being said if you get an opportunity for a clean shot on RGIII please take it, a minor concussion inflicted would be nice. I was hoping K-State could get it done but they didnt.

When the clock hits 0:00, have more points on the board than Baylor. Pretty simple key. :)

I think the biggest key is not beating ourselves. If we can play a clean/disciplined game, I truly think we can compete with about anyone.

It's time to have a smooth game.....and maybe have a big D touchdown or return to spark the whole team.

Welcome to "Bare" country! (hopefully crowd noise won't be a factor...but I'm sure they are gaining some fair weather fans).

Go Cyclones!

I'm tired of the same 5 keys to the game....we need to execute in those areas, they aren't exactly rocket science

Play fast and smart! JET, JET, JET get all the offensive snaps we can get!!!
Don't beat ourselves! We are a work in progress, just remember that.
PLAY LIKE A CHAMPION! If we want to become champions on the field it starts NOW. Class and Character need to rise to the top.

I love our direction and am fine with losing to a top 20 team(Texas) this early in the season. Learn from our mistakes made in that game. Beat Baylor and get back on track!!

Identify our strengths and address our weaknesses and WE WILL BE FINE!!!

Longer we have the ball the less in sync their offense will be. Have to win the time of possession by a large margin.

Follow this 1 easy step and you win every time:

1. Score more points than your opponent.

All kidding aside, the only way ISU wins this game is if they knock RGIII out in the first quarter.

I think you could almost narrow that down to these two:

Turnover/Penalties- We MUST win the battle in both categories. If we dont I dont think the other keys matter

Running Game: AA was right on here. Our Oline is playing dinged and without 1 starter so guys that are hurt and young guys need to step up and help ShonJ, JW and Steele control the football and dominate the line.
