Sorry, I saw more improvement last year. We just lost to a bad team that had not scored twenty points in a month.
The option worked on the previous try and they were waiting for it this time. You can second guess it all day long. What made me pull my hair out was the attempt to run the clock out on the previous drive and punting on 4th and 1. I know that this is what should be done for most teams, but most teams don't have our defense.
Have waited a while to cool down to post.
Pretty good effort today. Had our chances. When Hawkins started the 2nd half, I knew it would be tough because that meant more passing.
I have zero complaints about the offensive play calling the last couple games. I think we have been doing MUCH better.
Defensively, we need more horses to compete.
I cursed and was pissed like everyone else, but I know better days will be here someday.
Not gonna judge any of the coaches for another couple years. Let them get their players first.

Well, the headline could have been "ISU edged out in the second Big 12 Toilet Bowl" We almost avoided the Bottom 10. Let's hope we can go to a real bowl next year!
That was a good play call, but an even worse effort on the defensive side of the ball. It's far to easy to leave a tight end wide open.
So that's ONE good play call.
We got lucky on the Touchdown where we scored off the option.
Like I said, you have about a 98% chance of getting the six inches you need on a QB sneak from that position.
If we were further out, like at the 6 yard line where we should have been with the Delay of Game penalty, I would think differently...
Reminds me of the good old days. Es tas taco bar for lunch, followed by too many jager-bombs before heading back to work.:wideeyed:
After watching this game I do have to admit...U-COULD BE RIGHT!!!
Our defense makes every quarterback we play look like they should win the heisman trophy!!!
At least you didnt give up 66 points...quote by Mike Sherman
I Agree Coach...quote by CyBob:biglaugh:
I did not see much either in the 4th quarter. I hardly saw any in the 4th quarther. No pressure at all from our front 4 either like there was in the first half.
There was plenty of pressure in the first half of the game from our front four and our linebackers. There was nothing in the second half.
I'm not one growl about coaching...but there were too many calls today that cost us the game. I cannot think of any situation in which you would run an option OUT OF THE SHOTGUN on the 1 yardline with 3 seconds left without Scales who is your short yardage man. I'm no division 1 coach, so maybe Chiz knows something I dont, but seriously....just wow.
How so? Opposite from where? All of our National Championships? Our Big 12 Titles? North Titles?
Did you honestly think we would be having a great year this year?
I am 100% behind this coaching staff. I have not even second guessed them yet. Chizik is building a program, not a flash in the pan team.
Some of you guys act like we're Florida.
Toilet Bowl III will be in (2) weeks vs KSU. Let's hope the guys and get it together vs Prince "Lame Duck" of Manhattan. We are getting better, but so is everyone else.
Awesome post.
According to you guys, every game is the toilet bowl. Let it go. You're smearing our players, our coaches, and our school.
I'm tired of it.
I had to work and listened to the game on the radio. John Walters called the play before it occurred too. "Probably going to be the option here" or something along those lines. Pathetic... :no:
Watch the Mediacom reply show Tuesday night if they still do that.
It may not be the calls but the execution. I would assume that the players know how are the first down marker is and the play is called to get the first down. If the player cuts it short they made the error not the coach. Now, it is the coaches fault for not having them prepped but I dont see the players getting down on the coaches when it is their fault some of these plays dont work. You dont know and I dont know why these plays are not working.
