*** Official Cincinnati vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[Cyhig]

When was the last time they called offensive holding on our opponent?

One thing that's been tough is early in the season, ISU makes that INT.

There was a similar play last week.

Not sure if it's a confidence thing or what but those plays are obviously difference makers.

Cinci looking beatable to us now. Keep making mistakes bearcats.

 

[CloneIce]

I'm shocked Cinci brought safeties up to play run when we put in a random freshmen running some jacked up wildcat formation

 

[Isualum13]

The frequency of these tv timeouts is getting rediculous.

 

[Rabbuk]

Taking an unnecessary shot as a qb on a run you had no chance of getting a first down on seems like a weird thing to call a win...

Seems like the team is checked out. The Tech game broke them. Got so many turnovers that game but still lost.

Never. Seriously. If we don't get a decent pass rush they just assume we aren't getting to the QB anyway.

ISU had been in punt-block mode the previous times, then we aren't and they bumble the snap, and we aren't there.

Not a huge deal, but it just figures.

 

[Dgilbertson]

We’re winning this game btw. Not sure if we’ll feel good about it. But we’re winning.

 

[KCyclone2010]

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a snap go over the punters head and take like 6 seconds to kick and not get blocked. We weren’t even going for it

And it bounced right up to the kicker

All the players are pressing, because any failure in execution results in bad things. Zero room for error.

Seems like it's been a long time.

 

[AuH2O]

I get it…


BUT

If that works we’re all going “MOUSER YOU DAWG WHAT A FORMATION AND WHAT A PLAY!!!”

A dumb formation is a dumb formation. Having the running QB behind the RB in a wildcat is stupid.

You can’t just say “if it worked it would’ve been good.” The way the safeties reacted pre snap tells us it’s a stupid formation and personnel package.

 

[Drew0311]

While we are running the ball up the middle Arizona state is kicking the **** out of Kansas state doing creative play calling .

 

[Walden4Prez]

Honest question….can someone tell me 1 thing we have done differently in the last 2 1/2 games? 1 adjustment or change? Anything? It’s literally like I am watching the same ******** over and over again.

 

[RagingCloner]

We’re winning this game btw. Not sure if we’ll feel good about it. But we’re winning.

I appreciate your optimism but I am struggling sharing this thought process.

On the plus side, neither team feels built to come from 10+ down

Setting up the return. Understandable considering the field position. Unlucky.

 

[Clonefan32]

seriously if this is all the more they trust Rocco put someone else in. This is ******* absurd. Figure out a way to get your best two best players the ****** ball
