Seriously? This is about as even as a match-up ISU has had all year. I'm looking at a 24-21 or 28-21 game...

Tech wins.

yes i am serious, i havent seen anything from our offense to think otherwise, we scored 13 friggin points on UNI. I feel like their run game will open up the passing game and it gets ugly early. I hope I eat a serious helping of crow come Saturday night

I'm not arguing you thinking ISU will score 6 points, its thinking Tech will score 38. And you think their run game will open their pass game? What run game are you talking about?

I was disappointed in our offense against UNI, but I also think the coaches were playing very conservatively with Tiller in the game, especially when we got up by 2 scores. They just don't want to put him in a position where he might make a costly mistake, and they obviously felt our defense was going to be able to hold UNI.

The only way we win is because of the defense getting turnovers and making stops in the red zone. A-Rob has a nice game as well.

I am thinking TT 37, ISU 25. The offense shows somre real spark, but the lack of pressure from the defensive front will let TT have a huge game.

Don't think ISU's offense has enough to keep it close. Will be a close game early on and our defense will keep us in it, but second half defense will get tired because our offense won't be able to sustain drives and Tech blows it open. This will be the case for the majority of the games that Tom Herman is our OC.

TT: 34
ISU:14

Mini Rhoads puts the trainers' children in at the end and they give up a field goal. They will run wind sprints until they puke.

BUMP!

Cheers to those of us who realized ISU played a pretty good schedule and understood we were not a bad team and picked them to win.
