I already posted this in another thread that @Jeremy nixed (probably because you guys got out of control). It was my “most liked” post ever.

So I must repost about what may have been my best sports moment ever (and I’ve had some great ones). And I think it best fits in the “in-state rivals” forum because of the emotion involved with the Fuskers.

I watched the epic Cyclone TD drive from a tailgate in Lincoln. Then watched the rest of the game on my phone inside Memorial Stadium.

But more fun came a few hours later as my wife’s nephew, the quarterback for Georgia Southern, scored the winning touchdown against Nebraska. And you know what he was talking about after the game? The fact that he had thrown 108 passes in two games at Memorial Stadium and never been sacked. He started for Buffalo last year. He couldn’t wait to take his offensive lineman out for a steak dinner.

Hail Southern!

Watching the replay of the game. After our 3 and out on the first drive of the game, the line of scrimmage was the 24.5 yard line. Perkins was set up at the 10 yard line. Snap was perfect. Perkins caught it at the 11. He took 3 steps forward and kicked it at the 15 yard line. VanNess met our blocker at the 17, pushed him back to the 16 and blocked the kick rather easily with his left arm extended.

Iowa faced a 4th down on their 2nd drive at their own 34 yard line. Taylor was set up at the 19 and caught the snap at the 19. He took 2 steps forward and kicked it at the 22. ISU got no pressure at all on the punt.

Seems pretty simple. Perkins needs to catch the ball 15 yards from the LOS instead of 13.5 yards. He also needs to take 2 steps instead of 3 steps. Feel free to offer me an assistant coaching position.

Watching BIG TEN network and found replays of yesterdays games, but no Iowa -Iowa State. Did the BiG finally wake up and demote Iowa to FCS division?

We got 4 votes. We might move into Top 25 if we win our next 2 games. One would be over a ranked Baylor team.

Concerning or nothing to worry about?
If he didn’t throw 2 picks I wouldn’t even bring it up but I do think this is a topic of discussion among fans.

How about some love for this guy. Number 2 rusher in the Big 12 and top 20 nationally.

I didn't attend. Let's hear about some game day experience. Thanks.

Great game, and the The Cyclones were definitely the better team tonight, and victory was well earned. Good luck the rest of the season, and see you next year!

I think I saw ISU's punter with a 3-step kick. Did I not see it correctly? If so, that is a big part of the reason for the blocks. Gives the rushers more time in which to cover less distance. Have to fix that.

I’m going with Reeder narrowly over Hutchinson and Brock being third. Defense clamped down when they needed to, but Reeder was a stud from the first snap.

21 plays, 99 yards after a forced fumble, nearly 12 minutes, 5 third down conversions

That was a thing of beauty; deserves it's own thread.

Victory

Do you feel genuinely happy or just relieved? Me, just relief. I've come to really hate this game.

Seemed pretty bad.

Don't really understand picking up the PI flag vs. Hutchinson? Didn't look like we were offsides? Iowa OL holding?

Luckily we won the game anyway, but not sure what was going on there at the end.

I don't recall ever seeing a QB that couldn't at least complete an easy out route. We've seen times where statistically QB's have been that bad, but often that's because he doesn't have players around him to get open. The Iowa receivers' had space. Petras just couldn't get the ball to them.

Is it just the yips or has he always been that bad?

Probably old news to most, but I just saw it during the game. That’s disappointing, Gary.

I used to. I just can't anymore. They are insufferable.

Can watch upcoming Conference member Central Florida tonight on ESPN 2 take on Louisville.

Also bad news for BYU tomorrow vs. Baylor:

Not looking good weather-wise for the passing game. Still,go for it.

I'm mainly asking for bicyclists' opinions. Here is the situation:

Car is traveling north on a two lane street with bike lane markings on the right edge of the street (I'd call it more of a bike route marking than a dedicated bike lane). A small group of bicyclists is also traveling north on the sidewalk at a reasonable rate of speed, but slower than vehicles. The car goes past the bicycles and needs to make a right hand turn into a parking lot of a grocery store. The car will get to the entrance/crosswalk first, but the bicyclists would likely need to slow down (yield to the car). Who has the right of way, should the car stop on the road and wait for the bikes to pass or should the bicyclists slow down to yield when they see the car's turn signal from behind?

(For anyone wondering I was an observer of the above situation while outside the grocery store. The car started to turn, but then stopped just prior to the crosswalk when the saw the bicyclists still approaching at the same rate of speed. The bicyclists then stopped and everyone was aggrieved.)
