Cyclones in the XFL

[Die4Cy]

Seems like a pretty decent crowd by the looks of it. Better than yesterday's opener at least:

XFL Opener Attendance Not Very Impressive

The article compares attendance for USFL's opener last season which isn't comparable, since all USFL games were played in Birmingham. AL in 2022 to minimize costs, while XFL openers are spread all over the country.

Akers with a couple of good catches.

Pretty good football so far.

Akers with a couple of good catches.

Not a lot of YAC after he gets hit but he’s not exactly a big dude. He does his job.

 

[CyGuy5]

Reggie Smith as the head official. Barf.

Still have nightmares of that guy screwing over the Cyclones any chance he got

 

[JM4CY]

Did anyone’s feed just crap out on them?

I don't think I saw any of the ISU guys on the field for St. Louis in the first quarter.

Rose and Harvey have been out there. Butler only in on special teams so far, which isn’t great

Butler sighting. Need to get him the ball.

Rose complimented.

 

[Die4Cy]

WIllie Harvey and Rose both factored in on that play, Rose #27 on the tackle, Harvey #51 with the QB pressure.

Lots of usage of Alsts.

What's the red hat official do?

What is his #?

One of the things I liked watching the game last night were the reviews. Coaches get one and can challenge basically anything (spot, a penalty that was called or a penalty what was NOT called). Also liked how the replay official is mic'd up and they show him throughout the review - which only took ~30 seconds for the couple I saw.

 

[JM4CY]

What is his #?

88 I think

 

[Die4Cy]

Lots of usage of Alsts.

AI is big now! If Jim Walden had it he wouldn't have had to ask fans to submit plays.

88 I think

Yes,88. Had great catches on that field before.
