I'm not defending a loss, but I am encouraged that as poorly as we played, we still had more yards, more first downs, more TOP. We basically lost on two stats, turnovers and kick returns. Can we clean those up? Sure.

Our defense is still mostly solid. Purdy won't be so uncharacteristically off, or at least we should expect not. Still glad at least we get to play and a win on the 26th will hopefully get us on track!

You are leaving out the 70 yard bomb and then the last drive where they just got run over and could not stop them. And they missed two gimmee field goals which are basically like turnovers.

Anyone have a guess on the line for this game? I would guess TCU - 7, (exclusively for home field "advantage").

I feel this is a good time for us to be a road dog. As Ben B said this season definitely gives the road traveling team an advantage where all home field is neutralized. I also like how they have no plan at QB with them maybe having to play their third string.

Big question in this game? Can our O take a large incremental step forward, if so we will be in this game.

I'll be the special teams coach for this game... Kicked in high school.

Kick every punt out of bounds, no exceptions. (or just go for every 4th down, screw it)
Since, for some reason, we can't kick it through the endzone like every other college program and most high school ones: Onside kick every kick off, screw it.

Not a chance. It'll be damn close to a pick em, at most 3 points. I'll guess the over under is in the low 40's

Maybe we'll get the 4K broadcast.

Not this time


Hopefully at some point this year, I don't think we got one last year

Edit: Nevermind it's still TBD

After what we saw last Saturday, I'm not sure how any Cyclone fan could complain about a two week break. This team needs time to fix things.
THIS.

CMC needed time to bust balls and work on "margins".

"High Ankle Sprain" - for sure he'll be back by 9/26; he's probably practicing at full-speed today. This is just to obfuscate TCU game-prep.

I expect TCU to look as rusty as we did. This team is going to be fine if we can get healthy.

I'm pretty sure I watched multiple 4K last year. Unless it was all 2 years ago.

Not "official", but this site says Baylor on the 19th and Oklahoma on the 26th. Note that I have Dish Network so that's what I'm looking at.
