Still a week out and weather changes fast & often in Ireland but as of now looks like mid 60's and dry for the game.

I've checked the usuals (WU, AccuWeather, Weather Channel, Time & Date) and seems like they vary quite a bit for the international locations.

Too many people saying ISU loses to KSU and goes over on season win totals. A good bet seems like ISU over KSU but finishes the dreaded 7-5.

The leaf covering the block I-State in the bottom right tells me they may have the Irish colors inside the I-State logo.

I'm old and cranky, but there was too much going on with the sound.

I appreciate what they were attempting. But it needs cleaned up some

I feel like they are going to be tough to run against, but we’ll keep trying. You can’t get one dimensional against them or Iowa. We’ll grind out yards and people will complain that we’re being too conservative. But eventually I think that they’ll wear down and we’ll pop one or hit them with play action.

Their WR torched us last year, so that’s a concern. I think that their RB is super fast in the open field, but he’s no Giddens between the tackles. Pretty much shade to that WR, gang tackle the RB and keep a spy on the QB. I have a feeling this is going to be a Lovett game.

I'm way more concerned with Edwards than Giddens. Giddens was a little slow footed and never hurt us much. That said, we also shut down the ultra shifty Vaughn, which makes me think it was a scheme advantage. But Edwards is dynamic. If KSU's new OC changes things, a shifty back that can make a quick cut against the grain worries me more than a north-south guy like Giddens.

This is gonna be controversial, but I think this game will come down to how our offense plays against their defense, and how our defense plays against their offense.

Furthermore, I predict that the number of points scored will become a factor at the end of the game.

It be a mighty craic, win er lose.

Lend me $10 and I'll bet on Iowa State!

Love it… if we score 31 on that D …. We may not lose all year. Their front is really solid.

Man as a Truck Driver I would love to drive for the team

Undefeated it is then.

I did a rewatch of last year's game. Every "lucky" play went to ISU. 2 fumble recoveries. 1 blocked field goal. 1 safety. I noticed that Becht was 13-35 passing with 4-5 dropped picks by KSU. Some commentator said he wasn't sold on Becht to win this. KSU will stack the box, stuff the run, and blitz the QB. Passing game needs to be much better to win this. We won't have any good punt returns or blocks of kicks this game. IMO the key to the game is Becht seeing an open lane and using his legs. He can't roll out right, wait, and then throw the ball out of bounds to end the play. Bowman did this at OSU last year and they lost every conference game. WTBS I also rewatched the CCG against ASU and our backup QB was way off on accuracy - missing 2 open TD throws by about 10 yards each. So if Rocco gets hurt, it could be a big problem for the rest of the season.
