August 31, 20196 yr ISU -18.5. If you’re bored during the morning slate. Go State! Current scene at Tip Top Lounge. Best Bar in the Big 12, according to Bernard
August 31, 20196 yr That’s only because he’s never been to the Aggieville Lounge in Manhattan. Good luck in your game today.
August 31, 20196 yr Low scoring first half. Looks like ISU's offense is having some predictable first game struggles, but the defense is overwhelming UNI.
August 31, 20196 yr Aw dang I totally missed Al started this when I started my thread. Anyway, switching over here because Ole Miss is not making me a happy camper and might as well catch a close game.
August 31, 20196 yr Eisworth probably needs to head to the concussion tent. Dude looked knocked out for a sec.
August 31, 20196 yr As recently as 3 hours ago I would have defended ISU in the Big XII title game. But I may have overestimated how much better ISU's OL could get in a year without major personnel changes. They look really bad. NIU is just running a pretty straightforward 30 Front and ISU can't get any of NIU's DL moved in the first half w/ some Gap concepts. They had to run some outside zone on their scoring drive to generate any consistent. If you're ISU and you can't move NIU around, how are they going to score 30 points literally any team with a good DL? Their defense is extremely legit and could get them 9 wins, but something is going to have to change for them to breakthrough into the title game IMO.

August 31, 20196 yr Ball hit the ground. Too bad, it was a really athletic play. EDIT: I wrote that before the announcer said it, I swear. Edited August 31, 20196 yr by texifornia
August 31, 20196 yr First play of this drive ISU's center can't move NIU's NT, they have to double the guy at the 4i to get him moved. ISU is gonna win this game unless they have some really bad fumble luck, but they are gonna have to get much better to win against Iowa or Baylor. Edited August 31, 20196 yr by Farkimedes

I didn't watch many ISU games last year, but did Montgomery mask a lot of the OL's deficiencies?

August 31, 20196 yr death, taxes, isu being the fcs' bitch. they almost lost to drake university last year. nobody loses to drake university in football
August 31, 20196 yr Just now, satyanash said: Could not have been more clear that was a forward pass. Yikes. Disagree w/ this. I thought it was a genuine 50 / 50 call, and in that case I prefer going w/ the ruling on the field.
