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

Cooper looks lost against that speed option.

To be fair he is on open field against both Cincy players. Happened twice.

Not to rain on the parade. But at least 3 guys were probably illegally downfield on that TD pass.

Thank God that didn't get called back.

If Cincy keeps running the option they’ll go up and down the field.

 

[cyatheart]

And Hawk goes down

 

[CYISFLY]

Hold the line D just get a stop one way or another

 

[xboxfever]

All season long I’ve wondered why other teams don’t just run the ball every play against ISU. This 3-3-5 defense can’t stop the run. Terrible coaching passing the ball.

 

[BigLame]

We going to see a lot of option since KU killed us with it & we are still terrible defending it.

 

[acoustimac]

Seems every time they play the wiggle early the other team marches down and scores.

 

[t-noah]

Not an "attractive" drive, but effective.

Next goal: Defense, don't give up an 70-yard TD run or some silly thing like that.

They are only getting 15-20 yards at a time this drive. Still hope.

52 isn’t doing his job and makes Cooper have to account for both guys

 

[Jayshellberg]

I would run the option on every play if I were Cincinnati. We haven’t come close to stopping that play.

It's fine at stopping the run when you got the right guys and they are healthy.

 

[ISU_Guy]

We are about 5 plays or less from being tied

I don’t care for how easy this is…

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

 

[ScottyP]

We look slow

 

[CYISFLY]

Good God

 

[HoustonClone]

Holy crap, Ellis. Nice play.

 

[BigLame]

Once the player being optioned realizes it, he has to take out the QB as quickly & violently as possible. Knowing this, we need the next defender to take the RB. Can try to make our defender cover both.

 

[demoncore1031]

Fumble!!!

 

[Jayshellberg]

If Cincy keeps running the option they’ll go up and down the field.

If Cincinnati stops running the option, it will be coaching malpractice.
