Week 1 UNI Depth Chart
- Thread starter CYCLNST8
- Start date
Best case scenario is ISU wins 12-10 behind four FGs from two kickers. Worst case a ISU misses a couple of those FGs
It’s a ‘macho’ coach attitude IMO.
You tell your team that we’re going to go out there and smash these guys in the mouth and out physical them and run the ball down their throats!
But then the opponent stacks the box on you, and you find yourself running into walls…. but if you change your game plan it’s like admitting defeat in the coaches minds. So they stubbornly keep doing it.
Hopefully with Nate now as OC there is some different adjustments made
Fun Fact: Rick Milks is permabanned from all UNI events for shouting racist slurs at opponents and trying to fight assistant coaches.
Feels like a game UNI gets a early 10 point lead, ISU defense figures them out, ISU offense ties the game with 2 minutes left, UNI QB scrambles on last drive four times and puts them in a long field goal opportunity with 8 seconds left, the ball is hiked, the hold is good and the kick is.....
If that happens we're in big big trouble all year defensively. Unless of course the scores come from our offense or ST which I could see happening.
Not necessarily. Heacock's defenses have given away easy points early in the game then his adjustments shut down opponents in the 2nd half.
Iowa State is going to give UNI a beating like never before. Just slaughter them.
The UNI fans are so delusional. The hype for a guy who had a good year in the MVC is out of control.
I can see a world in which UNI has maybe one really nice offensive drive all day, probably early on. And then it's lights out. They struggle to move the ball and only score again if given a short field, which could happen a time or two...or three. The scouting report above is great, but that is some real sunshine pumping BS. Iowa State is better. They just need to be better on gameday. Something along the lines of 21-16 Iowa State sounds about right. UNI is stuck on 10 for a long time and scores a TD late, fails the 2 pt conversion and it's game. Iowa State scores 3 TDs after missing a FG attempt early. Campbell immediately resorts to going for it on 4th down inside the UNI 40, which is why only TDs are scored.
I don't know how many times it takes to try running straight up the middle and getting nowhere to decide it's not working, but we have never reached that threshold for some reason.
Who knows what's going to happen and obviously UNI has won this game before, but I'm starting to get a strong feeling that we may blow em out. It's mostly coming from all of the hype UNI's QB is getting as well as the disrespect Iowa State has been getting by the media and such. I'm not saying that ISU deserves any respect or hype, I'm just saying I will not be surprised if our guys and staff come out with a huge chip on their shoulders and win by 4+ scores.
The only thing you can really say about this early-in-the-season series is that ISU typically makes UNI look great. But they aren't.
I like it. I am just not sure how our offense is going to score 4 times. LOL
