ISU game chat

It was a good call unfortunately
-
Finally a good shot of the crowd. Alumni side looked pretty full, endzone looked pretty empty, couldn’t see the student side except the area where the band is. I would guess the crowd is 30,000 or so.
-
I think that’s going to be a TD.
-
Wow. I thought it was a TD
-
Surprised at that one, guess refs couldn’t see the outside of his foot.
-
Iowa State struggling against UNI
-
I think it was too close to call, I hate when they look for so long. That’s not indisputable
-
Huge to hold them to three.
-
Hopefully Macvitte comes in and does something. It should be 24 to 3, missed opportunities is the offensive issues. Only 3 points on an average or even below average FCS defense
-
Dodged a bullet there…

I honestly think this ISU team is better than coastal Carolina will be next week.
-
Les Miles said he’s sticking with Stanley in the 2nd half. Radio interview as he walked off.

That seems like it’s pretty normal and ISU will escape with 3 point win on a late TD or FG.
-
Well- - Coach said he is staying with Carter. - -If Carter is our Starter without McVittie getting a snap - - - Were in trouble based of 1st half - -against an FCS football School. - Sorry.

Not crazy about that, but also might be pretty condemning about MacVittie’s ability.
-
Traditional Les Miles power I pounding Herbert up the middle has been the most successful offense so far. Hopefully more of that with some play action mixed in.

ya they saying right around 30,000 maybe just a hair over
-
Defense looking shaky to start the half.
-
That was a helluva spot there
-
It was blown dead then he stuck the ball out to get. I would say a minimum of a half yard shy.
-
McCullough bailing out the defense there.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 bend, dont break, wake up O!!
-
Parchment is going to be a good player for KU. I’ve liked his skill set since the spring game. He’s the potential deep threat for KU if we put in a QB with an arm to push the ball down the field.
-
Sosinski sighting! (pls forgive if one occurred in 1st half)
-
Great drive by Carter right there. Good looking all around
-
@mayjay It actually did, Sosinski had a catch in the 1st half.
-
Nice to actually see adjustments made from the 1st half.
-
We may need to switch kickers , 4 points left the board off of Jones leg.
-
Don’t think Liam Jones is keeping the place kicking job for long. If he does, FG’s are going to be an adventure all year long.
-
Does anyone understand what the long review was?

That 49 yarder he missed isn’t a gimme even with a good kicker at the college level.
Jones pushing everything left is concerning though and a switch probably needs to happen for next week.
-
I really like Parchment
-
That jet sweep to Parchment is going to be a good play all year. Can’t wait get Pooka back and run a fake jet sweep a run it to the other side with Pooka.
-
That quick toss to the RB has sucked both times today
-
That was a piss poor executed play wow.
-
@Kcmatt7 That toss dive play is a staple of a Les Miles offense so we’ll probably see a lot of it this year.
-
Awkward looking tackle on that catch.
-
I’m kinda frustrated ISU is still in the game at this point. They really shouldn’t be, hopefully we can get a stop here or things get a little interesting.
-
That was pathetic on a 4th and 8. Let’s get some points offense
-
@kjayhawks We’re not a good team yet. These players don’t know how to finish teams off yet.
Hopefully we get there under Miles, but it’s a process and won’t happen overnight.
Also, don’t forget this game was only about a 4 point spread so it’s not like KU was expected to blow ISU away.
ISU is pretty comparable to Nicholls St. so even hanging on for a win today is an improvement over last season.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I figured it would he close I predicted a 27-17 win. Just ticked because we should’ve blown it open.
-
@kjayhawks We’re just not good enough yet.
-
That sack is why I’m not a Stanley fan, not enough awareness to throw the ball away when being pursued.
-
I think we may have just lost
-
This post is deleted!
-
The QB position for us is basically just being a tackling dummy.
-
Need a stop here.
-
Damn
-
ISU’s QB is better than Stanley.
