*** Official #17 Baylor vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[HFCS]

That type of tackle happens several times a game. I'm all for player safety, but at some point common sense has to be part of the game.

I guess we’ll see if Baylor is allowed to tackle. If they are pretty obvious fixed game.

Sucks giving up TD on first drive, but Cyclone D was salty against the run on that drive. Lock down the run and we're in good shape in this game.

 

[bozclone]

Football should be fun but I’m already pissed at the refs

 

[clonedude]

Was that the correct call on Reeder? I wasn't sure what the rule is there?

This won’t be well received: lowered head, made first contact with the crown and hit the players head. Targeting. Gotta get lower and keep head up.

No idea on the second 15. Yard penalty.

Easily was a late hit out of bounds.

 

[RezClone]

U can blame the refs all you want, but we had a chance on two 4th downs and didn’t stop them.

Oh we will. And good reason. Momentum fatigue. Pressure ramps up as field position changes. We got screwed.

That type of tackle happens several times a game. I'm all for player safety, but at some point common sense has to be part of the game. LSU - Florida State there was an LSU player that absolutely used his helmet to take out a Florida State player - the Freyler hit results in the same penalty which is ridiculous.

several times a game? Several times a series! Hell, start reviewing the line scrums for helmet to helmet accidental contact. I do feel for referees and the tough job.....but good greif.

 

[Alswelk]

The fact that the targeting call came from the booth and wasn't called on the field is illuminating for me

GOing to be a blast of a day for Beau. Sucks for a great player like that.
Sucks for any player - that was a completely random call so we are telling the kids - try to do things right but even if you do we may **** you

 

[DeereClone]

That goes to the turnover and touchback for fumbles out of the end zone

Nope. Kicking a kid out of a game for incidental helmet to helmet contact, when the offensive player can initiate the helmet to helmet contact with no risk of penalty, takes the cake and is completely criminal.

Looked more like they just ran into each other. Think they saw Reeder extend his arms at the end of it and thought he was just shoving him to the ground. Poor call. Announcer..."welp, I don't like that call either but you gotta move on." Nah, this is the type of **** we deal with in every big conference game.

 

[clonedude]

The Freyler call was total BS, but Reeder and Tampa have got to be smarter than that. Tampa should have gotten 15 for the late hit out of bounds.

Hit his shoulder pad first.

 

[Daserop]

Another game of ISU versus the opposing team and the refs. ISU will lose

 

[CentexCyclone]

Great line surge by left side of Cyclone OL on 3rd down.

 

[inCyteful]

And Brock runs over the pussies

 

[KidSilverhair]

Pretty clearly saw the Baylor DE line up in the neutral zone on that 3rd and 1 play.

If that was a flag on ISU vs Iowa it should have been a flag today.

EDIT: And if Freyler gets thrown out for his tackle the guy hitting Brock in the side of the face with his helmet should also be ejected.

 

[CloneGuy8]

Good play calls by Manning on this series

 

[pulse]

Targeting

 

[keepngoal]

Hit his shoulder pad first.

And his head was down, hitting with the crown of the helmet. Keeping his head up this isn’t a penalty.
