Just talking about past performance to talk up the game. Trying to get a feel for how they match up. Part of the fun of the game.
Fighting for extra yardage is good to a point, but more times than not, take what theyre giving you and go down, unless fighting for a 1st down or Touchdown. Sometimes you just need to get down & PROTECT THE BALL (especially if the team like ISU has had a problem protecting the ball!)

Sammy, don't let them get to you. I've been to Ames many times. Nice little town, but sort of dying like the rest of the upper midwest. Anyone knows where the real growth is located. Hell, ISU can't even keep it's graduates in Iowa. Most move to Texas.
Waco's population is more than double the size of Ames. Waco's population growth rate is 4X Ames' growth rate. And of course the State of Texas growth rate in population is over 6X greater than Iowa's.

Is that why you guys have your women's basketball teams claim to fame painted on your basketball floor? So you can remember your one shining moment?

Yeah there is plenty of opportunity in Waco. In fact I am checking this place out now. Hear that it's a fixer-upper but I'm willing to put the time and effort in.
Was in Waco in the fall of 2009 as I was heading down to Austin for the Texas Tech- UT game the year after Crabtree scored that TD to beat the Horns in Lubbock...
We stopped at the What-A-Burger across from BU and aside from the Baylor campus the town in very dingy. The campus itself is very pretty alot different from ours (not as many trees/ old looking buildings) but still very nice. The town itself is low income and alot of poverty as well.
I ate my hamburger and saw four guys sitting on a 7 ft cement wall just hanging out...
People dont give Ames enough credit. It is a college town that would be nothing more than Boone or Story City with out it. But its the college that makes Ames unique. Too bad the other people do not want Ames to grow, because it would do HUUGEE amounts of good for Iowa State University.

Not even in Waco or ever had anything to do with the city. Only mentioned due to proximity and the lack of anything bigger around.
Yet, when a vast majority of the Country hears "Waco, Texas" this is the first thing that they think of.
This. Ames is known for the university and perhaps the GOP presidential straw poll. Waco is known for some crazy guy with a cult.
Baylor is going to definitely score on ISU. Our defense has to stop them from scoring every time they have the ball. Then, if we keep our TOs and penalties to a minimum, we have a shot. And our guys have to score TDs cuz the kicking game is not good.
Question for the Baylor dudes:
What's the policy on bringing charcoal grills to the tailgate this year? We've been under an open burn ban in Austin due to the drought and wildfires, so I figured it was probably the same deal in Waco.
