@CoachHines3 mom knows the answer from me.

sure fire YES

 

[NY Chicago Fan]

Going to be very tough task in second half. Defense played fairly well, give up only 6 you would hope to be ahead. Offense needs to make plays along with D

 

[3TrueFans]

Can't complain a lot about this one, but I'll find a way.

I believe in you.

3 -6 at the half. Could be worse!

Three points isn't going to settle this one. We have to get the O cranking in the 2nd half! Take some chances. Nothing to lose here.

 

[CYedUp]

No more runs up the middle. They can't stop the slants

 

[CoachHines3]

0.5 yards per rush is really good

 

[CentexCyclone]

Dang, could see that made FG coming. I'm really going to be pissed if the game is lost b/c of bad snap on Cyclone's missed FG.

But overall, not a bad half for the Cyclones, but definitely need to get a little more creative offensively in the 2nd half. 115 total yards w/6 net yards rushing ain't getting the job done int eh 2nd half.

 

[Dopey]

Offense doesn't feel terrible. Just want to see some off tackle runs. And be careful we don't throw a pick 6 on all our slant routes.

 

[khardbored]

It's ridiculous how long it took the refs to call that intentional grounding

 

[CycloneErik]

I believe in you.

I'll start with the lack of touchdown plays on both sides of the ball. We could be up several touchdowns if each coordinator called enough touchdown plays.

 

[KCyclone2010]

Need to get the ball outside on runs. Stop trying to run up the middle. It obviously is not working

 

[Clonefan94]

Lol, poor Texas, if these refs wouldn’t call stupid penalties, Texas would have 14 more points. What is up with that narrative tonight? Both of those penalties had an impact on the play.

 

[t-noah]

Texas is intentionally holding and blocking in the back every play including our sacks and some plays where it frees their playmakers. It’s not some fluke or luck they got flagged a few times.

Gee. What, they take lessions from OU or the other way?

 

[ca4cy]

We're in it. I'm not sure how long we can count on Texas shooting themselves in the foot. I hope we can make some adjustments at the LOS that gives us a semblance of a running game because I'm sure Texas will be looking to take away the slant. Their d line is as good as I've seen in awhile. We showed up ready to play, much more so than we did against KU.

 

[Yaz]

Campbell’s timeout probably benefited the kicker more than anything..

Cooper and Tampa will be playing on Sunday’s. Book it.

It was a good time out. If he hadn't used it, we'd be complaining why didn't he use it.

 

[fsanford]

ok even I don't think that's intentional grounding... but i'll take it.

It absolutely was. Seen it called several times today.

 

[SDClone]

No more runs up the middle. They can't stop the slants

A couple more slants then burn them in a double move.

 

[cymac2408]

We are extremely lucky to only be down 3 at half. Come on boys put the peddle to the metal after half.

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

I already see enough of this single digit crap in Iowa games. lol

 

[CycloneVet]

Any bets on when the slgo route comes to Higgins?
