*** Official IOWA STATE vs Memphis Liberty Bowl Game(Day) Thread ***

[jctisu]

Here’s the deal right now too. Memphis is definitely more hyped for this and are playing with passion. They are a G5 team that is trying to prove a point, so we are going to have to bring that energy down by putting together a couple of punishing drives.

Starting the game by needing to respond to adversity, the Cyclone way. Keep the faith.

 

[Thomasrickj]

Our defense looks like ass

 

[ISUTex]

Memphis looks like they are going to put 38 up on the scoreboard. Still hoping my prediction is wrong. Getting 0 pressure on blitzes.

 

[madguy30]

Not a fan of the play call there. Too much movement, not enough blocking and north/south action.

You just summed up my feelings about ISU's offense going on 7ish years.

 

[4cy16]

It's warmer in Ames, 40, than it is in Memphis, 38.

 

[CYedUp]

Still don't know how we were favored by 10

 

[Cyhig]

Just going to enjoy this game, no matter how it turns out. Even if ISU loses today, today will be far better than the next 8 months....

Savor this moment. Last game we will see for quite a while

Several inches of snow contributed greatly to that night.

I must have missed the part where Giddens ran all over us on the same snow. Was it snowy when Sama took 2 to the house at BYU?

 

[CapnCy]

Ugh...."adversity" to overcome.

Can't wait till the 4th to get it together.

 

[RezClone]

Nice play by purchase shedding that block!

 

[CyFanInChiLand]

Memphis trying to get fancy. Haha

Well look who found the good liquor.

 

[CyGuy5]

Maybe just maybe stop blitzing on third and long

 

[Inthesystem]

Month of preparation

I have to admit sometimes I wonder if too much prep time isn’t good for this program.

 

[CY88CE11]

No OPI? Blatantly blocking downfield.

Not a great argument for the "extra practices" idea.

 

[cydsho]

It actually wasn’t a bad call, because he had a guy wide-open, but Rocco for some reason just decided to run.

Yeah nothing wrong with the play. Rocco screwed up.

I have to admit sometimes I wonder if too much prep time isn’t good for this program.

I would say that Campbells record coming off of a bye supports this

 

[67CY]

ESPN+ is a play ahead of ESPN on Mediacom WDM. How can that be?
