*****Official Game Day Thread - ISU vs. UT*****

[CysRage]

My first half game ball goes to the ISU coaching staff. The guys were ready to play after a 120-27 deficit over the last 2 weeks.

I agree. That onside and flee flicker came at the perfect time. Too bad the flee flicker wasn't successful.

We're up 14-3, what if we'd caught a couple of those interceptions that we should have?

 

[CRAZYGREG]

Is AA playing for both teams today? Man their QB looks horrible throwing the ball!!

Yeah, combined with the onside kick that couldve been a dagger.

I thought the exactly! We should be up at least one more score.. BUt then again, Texas should have been up one more score at least.

great game!!!

 

[CySmitty]

Really liking this game. The dline looks better an the block by AA was awesome.

I really hope we bring a little more on 3rd and short.

 

[dualthreat]

Unlike the Nebraska game, we don't have to rely on turnovers to beat Texas.

hold your tongue.

Lets just keep battling! Keep fighting! Come on Cyclones!!!!!!!

 

[RayShimley]

Any update on Maggitt Jr?

Clones are playing great, Texas looks a little hung over from Nebraska.

As bad as Gilbert has been throwing, AA has been worse. Had he just lobbed that opposite end goalline pass to Franklin, it would have been a 30+ yard gain, instead we get a high overthrown bullet. Franklin was on another planet wide open.

 

[Wardecker]

Cyclones are kicking the living crap out of Texas!

 

[HFCS]

I loved the first down call when we were on the 1 with 99 yards to go.

If AA makes that throw and hits Franklin in stride he's rumbling for 30-40 yards.

 

[HerkyKiller]

C'mon Cyclones you can do it!!!!

You need to keep playing to win!

 

[Covenant Clone]

The defense has been incredible the first half. Really neutralizing their speed by playing good position football. They have been in the right place more often than not. Great game play by Wally and friends. Have to capitalize on opportunities and continue to make tackles in the open field.

I'm not saying were going to win but we have some offense today and can put points on the scoreboard. Unlike the Nebraksa game.

CYCLONE

POWER!!!!!!!

 

[Covenant Clone]

Any update on Maggitt Jr?

Really hope he can go in the 2nd half...he played well in the 1st.

 

[dualthreat]

We're gonna fight
We're gonna fight some more
If we get knocked down
We'll lay down and bleed awhile
Then we'll get back up
And we'll fight some more

:yes:

For anyone who was questioning our coaching, please rewatch that first half. the onside kick clearly was because they saw something and then perfectly executed. Also love the punting, I guess you could say he has had a lot of practice, but a Freshman putting inside the 5 at Texas is amazing, sure there were some missed opportunities, but they made more opportunities than they missed!
