Richardson completed 68% of his passes for 243 yards, 2 TD, and zero INT. QBR of 164.3 - pretty hard to blame him for this loss.

Just consider yourself one of the lucky ones that didn't have to watch that ****. It's one thing to lose to an FCS school, it's another to get physically dominated in so many different aspects.
7 points a quarter is not nearly good enough. And apparently you didn't watch Steele Jantz against Iowa 2 years ago.

20 points against UNI.
UNI physically dominated us.
UNI running back went off completely as though he were a Texas legend.
It was awful.
Sam looked good...a few times the pocket collapsed or he ran around more and could have thrown it out of bounds. I think our old "bend, don't break" defense is bending and cracking/breaking.
I still would like to see more mid/deep balls thrown.

I thought the Tech loss last year was worse than this IMO
CPR has too much trust in his kickers. No excuse in the world to let one of our guys try a 54 yarder when it's 4th and 5 relatively early in the game. I wouldn't have tried the first one tbh.
I still see this team being 2-1 headed into the Texas game. Not giving up total hope yet. You can't sweep the non-conference every year.
Oh and Messingham is a disaster.

I think you mean, "AND WHY DOES IT SEEM WE ALWAYS PLAY FOR THEMISSED FIELD GOAL?!!?!?!!?!?!?!"
1. First three quarters, Richardson did everything he was allowed to do.
2. Yes, I did watch Steele Jantz against Iowa two years ago. He didn't have a solid first three quarters, he just pulled crazy plays out of his *** every so often.
Where you getting those 3.
I'm thinking we can take KU
KSU will find a way to beat us as normal
....... and that's about what I got right now. 1 win.
Mess just needs to go. Sturdy, who has OC experience, or Klenakis, OC at Nevada during Pistol heyday, needs to be calling the plays.
100% Yes yes, and yes.
UNI absolutely tore apart ISU's defense the ENTIRE first half. Made it look really, really easy.
ISU's offense was mediocre at best. It's nice to have a quarterback that can actually, you know, complete some passes, but with a line this bad and typically bad play calling, not a whole lot is going to happen. Now, Richardson had some poor moments, too, but they weren't necessarily concerning. A missed read here or there, and a spot or two where it was better to throw the ball away when he didn't.
I found myself longing for UNI's offense, but I'm not sure if it's their coaches or ISU's defense is just that bad.
This didn't have the feel of "one bad game". This had the feel of completely outmatched, out-talented, out-prepared, out-coached; Season over.
I would go so far as to suggest PR jump out in front of this thing and get rid of Mess SOON! I think he takes less heat if he just admits he picked the wrong guy now and sends him packing. Experiment with the rest of the season cuz it cant be worse.
