ISU @ Baylor Official Game Thread

[MontyBurns]

I place the blame squarely on the shoulders of the coaching staff. They need to guide the players through this type of thing. They may not have the tools they need to win in the Big12 yet, but it is a direct reflection on the staff when the players you do have play worse than they have all year.

I agree. They have the tools to not commit personal fouls like that did against SDSU but they kept doing it against Kent State, Iowa, UNLV, and today. They have the tools to not get false start after false start penalty but they are on pace to have over 100 yards in penalties today. They have the tools to call a play and snap the ball without a delay of game, but they continue to go backwards with unforced errors in the red zone even halfway through the season. And cleaning up that stuff is 100% on the coaching staff.

sorry man i cant do it.... nothing to feel positive about

To top it off, demoncore has an annoying girlfriend. He REALLY doesn't have anything to feel positive about.

I'd just like some respectable drives to close out this game.

I know I'm a broken record, but no emotion. They don't seem to care.

I agree with this. At the same time I realize that working with young adults (read: our athletes) they have very fragile psyches. Not meant to be an excuse, just an observation.

go florida!

Great, I thought we got rid of that when Meyer graduated.

 

[drmwevr08]

Looking back on all the optimism about this game, are we really any less myopic than Iowa fans?

What happened to them BTW, wow.

 

[demoncore1031]

we are in the top 10 in the nation in takeaways.... lets get one!

On the bright side, I just bought the Sports Pack for Direct TV to watch this game. Now I can watch all the pre-season NBA and NHL I want.

Are there advanced scouts in college football? They've caught up to us.
