*** Official #22 Kansas vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[xboxfever]

Whole game plan just sucked tonight....2 weeks to get ready and we show them nothing. Just we're not ready to play either way.

They played Baylor last week. Multiple people have now pointed this out to you. They are not coming off a bye.

Basketball can't get here soon enough.

Kansas is clearly better than ISU this season.

25 months ago, Iowa State beat KU 59-7 at JTS.

"This weekend" in 2021, ISU beat Texas, 30-7.

I did not expect to get our ass kicked by KU 1.5 years into their rebuild. In the realm of “sports related emotional investment” - this is depressing and embarrassing. It took them no time at all to surpass us. Hard to let that sink in.

 

[cyatheart]

Just not there emotionally either, so odd.

 

[CloneIce]

So is their coaching that much better than ours or is our talent that much worse? Makes no sense.

They are way more experienced and I think more talented overall. And their coaches definitely had them more prepared and focused this week.

If we don’t get a touchdown here then it’s over

 

[ZRF]

Then an area is open that KU will get the ball to.

Not entirely true.

The reason he is finding guys is because of time, ****** backers, and a few weak spots in the secondary. The most important part in stopping him is eliminating the time. That will speed up throws force more mistakes, and not allow guys to find soft spots in the zone. At least in theory.

But Heacock isn't even trying it. Rushing 3 hasn't worked all year and I've stated we don't have the personnel to run the 3-3-5. We'd be much better off with 4-2-5...Making us stronger up front while eliminating one of the worst players on the field for us (an LB).

 

[Thomasrickj]

Fair catch? Why?

How do so many people think we had a bye last week? Is this a meme?

 

[OKClones]

This is a team that looks unenthused. Not prepared for some odd reason. The fans were excited. Our coaches and team not so much.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

Put Tiller in!

 

[cyatheart]

Offensively I'm just so disappointed....we were so limited, and we did nothing in two weeks to add anything

 

[CYEATHAWK]

Defense oscgettong it's ass handed to it.

We all knew KU's offense was next level. But their defense is not. ISU should be able to match score for score if Matt Ferentz wasn't coaching.

 

[dirtyninety]

84 coached to catch that fair catch???? wtf.

 

[helechopper]

The longer this goes on the more I wonder if we caught OSU at the right time and for the rest of the games we feasted on inferior teams.

 

[cyclonez7]

Getting embarrassed at home by Kansas should never be acceptable. No excuses about being sick or young and inexperienced this week.

 

[ISUTex]

We suck tonight. No way to sugarcoat it.

We've kind of sucked all season. OSU has to be kicking themselves.

 

[ZRF]

Speed this up. Get thr ******* plays in quickly and lets go.

 

[Prone2Clone]

Run game is atrocious.
