Nice blowout win. Gives us enough to be happy about.
The first series and the FG block give us something to complain about, so we keep our Internet cred.
Tons of ways to remind everyone else that they aren't the fans they need to be.
That's a solid gameday.
Oh I think we will keep our internet cred regardless! ;)

Fun game. There are just some games when you know you are going to win. Even after the TD, it just wasn't worth worrying about. Got to clean up some stupid mistakes and work on keeping our feet on the pedal. It looked like we had a bunch of starters out on defense when they scored that TD late.

also, not for nothing, I think mask compliance was even better today than it was last week.

Not to nitpick, but isn't it still a penalty on a field goal for a defender to use his teammates to help him leap over the line?

tech defenders didn’t useone another at all...the 2 DTs literally just walked into backfield..

yes it is flag to step on another player back and jump over top..that didn’t happen here.. I wish it did..lol

Wow, shocker. Heacock and the defense with another masterpiece. This was probably the best job coming out of the gate by this team. Another shout out to the OL. Foster, Newell and Simmons were dominant. Need to get Ramos and Downing healthy.

Another solid game from the offense. Really need to get special Teams cleaned up and get rid of the dumb pre snap penalties.

Going to hurt to lose Young for the first half vs OSU.

If you watch closely #57, who blocked it used ISUs linemen to launch, which is not illegal.

Word has it that Trae Young will fill in on that next week.

Did OU guy actually launch off another player to block the FG? If so I believe that is illegal.

In real time it looked like he put his hands on the TTU DL and pushed off, but he used ISUs linemen and sort of jumped over the TTU DL. I think it was the right no-call.
