Touchdowns will win this game, not field goals. Big stop by the D. Offense needs to respond.

Been around our d-backs/safeties and seen them up close.

They're small, thin and will get burned by pro-style WR's of Texas, as evidenced on that long fly pattern for 50 yards.

Despite being good tacklers, they're simply overmatched physically against big receivers

rumor of ehlinger being dinged up might be true if they are unwilling to run him down near the goal line.

arm looked fine on that throw though.

And now it is time for Purdy, Hall, and the Cyclone O to show up in their debut as a national power!!

Defense doesn't do much of anything according to the talking heads....then we blow up the next play and forced a field goal.

One drive and I'm on the edge of muting the TV.
I mean they don’t really do much. They usually play straight up. They are talking about different looks.

Pretty annoying when national tv analysts consistently take the approach that ISU is a team that can "sneak up on you if you are sleeping."

We outrank the Whorns right ******* now.

Need to be throwing on 1st down, not second and long.
