Hitting the motion man with the snap deep in our own territory
Brock getting face planted all day because guys whiffed on blocks
Drive killing false start penalties
Fundamental misunderstanding of forward pass rules
Slamming Breece into crowded boxes behind a below average line

Brock made a boneheaded play or two for sure, but if our offense had any consistency or rhythm maybe he wouldn't have to try to play superman.

I don't like calling out guys but man Hufford had a horrible game - 3 penalties for 35 yards and got beat over and over. His foot work today was horrible.

That last sack he gave up made me sad. The guy didn’t even get into him, and he was on skates, fell down anyway.

That's on the o-line.
Still think if we prepared to alter our snaps so they couldnt tee off all game, the OL would have performed better. Didn't someone on last week's game thread mention T Tech knowing or stealing signals from the bench? Is this continuing or are we heavily tipping our running plays leading to them being blown up so easily? It has happened a lot in 4 of our last 5 games (since W VA)

It's at the point even these freak out threads are cathartic. I love Iowa State. I love Purdy and Campbell, etc., but this season has sucked. And I'm sure those guys feel the same way.

Way up there
And win a lot of close games too. Guess what? When you are trying to build a program you probably will lose a lot of close games. The good part for us is that this coaching staff also wins plenty of those close games.

Yup, they are a victim of their own success in a lot of ways. They are responsible for the raised expectations that have everyone not happy with a "season like this". It's been a bummer of year but 10 years ago, I'd have been thrilled with a 7 or 8 win season.

Manning doesnt have a deep threat, how dare you people ask for his head. Sorry we lost Butler and Lazard.

We don't need a deep threat to call the occasional screen pass.

I could be wrong but I think he had 4 penalties in the first half. Poor guy couldn't compete with the OU DLine.

But it isnt just him. OU came right up the gut unimpeded muktiple times. So did they ALL regress or is it the new scheme, or their skill level within the new scheme?

Idk, but its f**ked regardless.

You're right, if we criticize Campbell he might leave for a better job with a fan base that doesn't criticize its coach.
uh...... I'm not sure if that was sarcasm so forgive me............ but such a place does not exist.

Next time Alabama loses... check out their message boards. Check out the heat Dabo has gotten at times this season. Campbell knows this.

Again, if that was sarcasm, my bad for not recognizing.

The OLine definitely had a bad day overall, but our OC never put them in a position to succeed.

To be fair, they’ve driven their programs to the top.
