*** @ Cincinnati Pregame Thread ***

An opposing teams fans think they will win the game, therefore they will win the game. It's not complicated, guys!!!!!
Iowa State would’ve gone undefeated in every game in every sport if this was the case lol.
 
This game could be close, especially given the injuries. But when your 3rd and 4th string corner would be starters on the defense ISU will play Saturday, i think thats pretty telling.

Again, this game makes me nervous AF. Mostly because if ISU wins it, i think they are undefeated when BYU comes to town, but also because this team keeps beating the odds and the adversity. I dont believe that suddenly just stops.

As far as the line goes, saw that its down to -1.5. Assuming Nip is a 3 pt home field advantage, ISU would be favored by 1.5 on a neutral field, and probably favored by 3.5-5 at JTS.

Anybody remember how it went last time we were 3.5 pt home favorites?

In all seriousness, by 10AM saturday ill feel differently. But at 3:30 on a Thursday, this is the best ive felt about a game yet this year, which seems weird

Wait, how can we know for sure? Did they say it on their message boards? Apparently that means its true if they did. can someone go check?
 
Cincinnati boards are already marking this as a win. I think the writing is on the wall here, sorry folks.
I’m only on one UC board but I haven’t seen anyone marking this as a W. A bit of surprise over the Vegas odds. Satterfield hasn’t instilled much confidence, so I think the attitude right now is nothing more than hopeful, if not desperate for something to cheer about.

Nippert will be loud and ready to go.

can you explain the comments on the UC boards about students and leaving at halftime? I saw the comments made a few times, is this a concern? Do your students leave at half and not come back at times?
 
Watching the highlights from last year. Sorsby absolutely killed us on the QB Draw / QB option out wide. Hopefully we’re better adjusted this year but that has always seem to be a weakness in our defense. Kansas killed us last year with the QB option as well

Any one have one of these? Gonna pick one up for $31 at Menards for the last 3 home games. Do they work good enough?
