ISU +14.5 against TCU

I think we have some of the better running backs in the Big 12, our wide receivers are better than last season, and so is the tight end position. I agree some of the weight needs to fall on the offensive line, but Jantz time and again feels under duress when he is not and continuously makes the wrong read on the read option. Last night was bad for Jantz on the read option, might have been the worst I have seen him. White had several openings but did not get the ball and if he did it was not quick enough.
Jantz had one answer last night - exit stage right. Never stepped up, never quuickly dumped the ball, never ran left. Obviously the previous gamnes he tried to curl and head back deeper to outwit the onrushers. So our fine staff said, if you are going to run, exit stage right.
The blocking back looks like is needed after TT and Rutgers debacle. Do we have a back who can block?
 
Can Mike Ditka still throw???

Ditka and the Cyclones vs. TCU = WIN :yes: AND cover

Steele and the run up the middle vs. TCU = loss :arghh:and NO cover
 
TCU has about 40 underclassmen in their two deeps. This is about as salty as our defense has ever been. I think Rhoads lights a fire under the O-Line and we pull out a W somehow.
 
TCU to cover, easily.

I'll be interested to see how the line moves from here.
 
ive never been more disappointed in cyclone football than i am right now. I have no confidence going into this TCU game
 
I feel like we are either going to pull out a win or get blown out..Depends if we get an offense to show up to play or not.
 
i love how we lose one game and everyone jumps ship. ridiculous people. its one loss for pete's sake.

No kidding. This may be the worst I've seen it on here. I was pretty bummed out about last night but there's a lot of season left and you never know what will happen from week to week. I expect a competitive game vs. TCU.

So... how many weeks have you been a fan? :) As unpleasant as the Tech game was, there have been plenty of times when I have been more disappointed. This is just a bump in the road.

Oh you have got to be ******* kidding me. Either you have been a fan for 4 weeks or you're a moron.
 
i wouldnt mind this but how the hell we gonna this when edwin arceo cant kick and extra point

OK, fine. Still 24-20, but 4 touchdowns with no PAT's. I feel like it'll be multiples of 3, or multiples of 6 - nothing in between. Arceo will be hot from the 7 yard line over and over. Or we strike gold with no help from Arceo.
