*** Official ISU vs KSU Gameday Thread ***

[Rick]

SJ just cannot get forward momentum often enough. He dances too long and the hole is gone.

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Rhoads gets outcoached every year against K-State. Snyder is a genius.

Doesn't take a genius to out coach us.

 

[cyclonez7]

Actually a good play call on 3rd down...

 

[ISUFan22]

I'd buy that but even when there is separation, our QBs don't get the ball to them. Somebody mentioned it a minute ago....pitch and catch. Simple as that.

Consistency and rhythm equals success. There is a reason they practice every day to establish timing.

Gameday - no timing as receivers get blown up on the line, can't separate.

 

[FanatiClone]

You know...the receiver screen looks kinda nice when you hit the receiver in stride.

That's the one bright spot I saw. On the first or second screen Rohach threw, he lead his receiver so that he didn't have to break stride. It went for a 1st down.

 

[cyclonez7]

Typical 2 yard run on 2nd and 10 to set up 3rd and long.

 

[ThatllDoCy]

This is a joke.

 

[ISUAlum2002]

This is a joke.

Unfortunately, it is all too real.

 

[ISUFan22]

Look at them open receivers on 3rd down. Oh, wait.

 

[rhillary]

4th and 1 at midfield and yet again we don't go for it. Why not? Afraid of giving up good field position or getting blown out? I don't understand, at least pretend that you are going to throw everything at them instead of just trying NOT to get 40 pointed....

 

[Drive4cy]

I can't believe we punted there.

Alrighty then.

 

[HouClone]

We must be near the bottom of all college teams in 20+ yards per play. Frustrating to see us having to struggle just to get a first down.

 

[Doctor]

I think we just hurt our own player on that punt.

 

[cyclones500]

Anyone else think it'd make just as much sense to go for it there, instead of punt?

 

[Mtowncyclone13]

Why is it always 3 and long? Every series every game.

 

[Doctor]

Why are we punting from mid-field???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

 

[Covenant Clone]

1st down roll out doesnt work so let's go to our bread and butter off tackle run for 2 yards. I swear messingham just closes his eyes and puts his figure down on a play. He has no clue.

Sam better be hurt (cause he is a better even if he's dinged up) than Grant. I despise the way Rhoads and company handle QB's.

 

[CychoCyclone]

2 1/2 quarters and we haven't even sniffed the endzone...

 

[FanatiClone]

Look at them open receivers on 3rd down. Oh, wait.

I watched the same play. There was some separation. C'mon now.

Could say that about almost every punt we've done today.
