I think it is hard for this staff to play outside of the box. But it is what is needed with this team and OL.
Let's see if the light stays on. I too, liked the play calling, for the most part, and the improvement. The fans really needed this.

Sometimes painful to watch, but a solid win nonetheless. Really like what Becht is doing at QB and the (somewhat) more creative play calling used more field and got our playmakers in space more often. Noel had a huge game. I'm still not a fan of consistently running up the middle as we're not going to have an RB left by the end of the season if we keep doing that. We did that a lot today and our biggest, toughest RB got squashed by a 350 lb dude.
Not sure what we were doing at times defensively today. Guys playing out of position or missing assignments happened way too often today and it cost us points. We did not consistently get pressure on OSU QB most of the day. Thank God for the two picks or this is a different ball game.

Would you rather ISU lost to them? Rocco can only play against the team on the field, but he played well. Sorry if that hurts you.
Goodness, yes they are bad. How did they fall so far!?
South Alabama crushed them…and then lost at home today to 1-2 Central Michigan.
Go look at the other Big 12 team defense stats and tell me which team not named ISU has a good defense
Any fans before this game thinking Rocco was the problem are dumb fans. He’s played well and is accurate.
It was funny to hear the announcers trash our offensive line every other series.
“I don’t know what you expect the RB to do when you have to dodge or break a tackle 3 yards behind the line of scrimmage”
“Rocco is doing so well with pressure today and getting rid of the football quick because this offensive line isn’t stopping anyone”
Just some of the things said by the announcers during the game lol

We saw today that the offense can work, but only when we pass first and try and run second. We keep trying to run through a brick wall with our running game, it does not work and never will.
The talent is there in the skilled position to throw the ball, not there in the run game against a stacked box.
Throw the damn ball.

Happy with the win. Now the last two losses sting a bit more. Onward to the next… Beat OU!
Only 1 more game and then Roctober begins!
Well, Eric is calling him Brock on the post game so….
That was one of the more fun games in JTS in some time.
I think we all realize that, but this is ISU, we deal with enough misery on a daily basis, when we win, can we at least enjoy it for the rest of today? Of course mistakes were made, of course this wasn’t a top ranked team, but it’s still a win and our O showed a little life. We can get back to hating ourselves tomorrow.
Thank you for proving you didn’t look at the stats. You mean the OU defense allowing 300 yards/game against Arkansas State, Tulsa, and SMU? Can’t put too much stock in the fact theve only allowed 9 points
Whatever the opponent, I was pleased to see us play a disciplined game with no turnovers, and minimal penalties. Think that’s being overlooked.
Also glad to see the defense make plays at critical times. Turning the other team over is going to be crucial if we want to keep improving and win more conference games.
