Can the Panthers take down ISU on Sep 3rd?

Re: Can the Panthers take down ISU on Sep 3rd?

To be fair, Chris Williams opinion that the Iowa State program "is at a point right now where it doesn't have to worry about a school like UNI" is equally laughable to 83's comment...

I see a lot about UNI's veteran starters mentioned here. We do have some new/unknowns kicking for us. They may end up as good or better than before (Isn't Billy H. our alltime leading scorer?), but if the game comes down to a late, pressure kick; we don't have known, automatic guys kicking for us. Something to think about before we chalk up a win here.

Agreed, I don't think ISU will ever be in that position.

That was cute...are they always that annoying though? It was good when they actually talked about their point but I feel like 8 mins of that video was takin up by dribble and really lame jokes. Also where is this "Chris Williams Sucks" thread. Have I not been around long enough to find it? Because I really want to contribute to it...

That could have been 11 minutes of my life wasted, but I quit that ridiculous video after 30 seconds. I hope Toyota of Ames isn't paying too much sponsor that schlock.

I'm glad that I served as some sort of entertainment for those two.

I ended up watching the whole thing thinking they might actually talk about something important. I was wrong. I see no reason to listen to them on Saturday since the odds of them rambling on and on are pretty high.

I watched the whole thing, since I was the focus of the whole thing.

To sum it up:
They admitted I wasn't far off by saying one of the fastest teams they'll face, but "C'mon man"ed my other comment, which I'm okay with.

After that they poo-poo'ed the fact that UNI statistically dominated the game last year, and said that UNI's speed won't mean jack because the ISU boys are far bigger than UNI's guys, and that UNI won't be able to handle the hits.

Typically Clone jibber jabber. This is really the only game of the year that Clone fans ever feel confident going into, so they take it as far as they can while they can.

If I was going Saturday I'd stop by their set to say high and thank them for making me internet famous for 37 seconds.

I'm sure they are, as they have been doing it for about 3 years.

And just like any other writer or media member, they couldn't care less what you think of them, but they do thank you for the "view" and/or page hit.

No, they aren't. They are still trying to reach that annoying level that "KABOOM!" is on.

Anyways.. So, who's going to the game Saturday, where are you tailgating, and what time are you getting there?!?!
College Football is here!

Chizik was a terrible fit for ISU. He was used to having the 4 and 5* types around him ...

I've never look at the "*" symbol the same way since reading Vonnegut years ago.

In this case, your use and Vonnegut's may apply.

I keep seeing this, but without a doubt the most important stat is turnovers. I'd rather win that stat than any other in the course of a game without question. Let alone the final score stat.

That said, the game was much, much closer than that score would indicate. ISU greatly improved throughout the season and it sounds like UNI did too. I expect a good game on Saturday and I hope every UNI fan that comes down has a good time.

Could not agree more. I think that UNI has the defense to win a game like this, but there are still some question marks as to if UNI can move the ball and score TDs.

If UNI comes out, say, +2 in turnovers in this game, that will be all UNI needs to turn the tide and the Panthers are going to win the game. IMO..

I'll go as far as an even turn over battle and UNI wins.

If UNI gets into any sort of negative turnover ratio though, then I will have my doubts.

Moving the ball wasn't, and won't, be an issue. The issue was the TO's after moving the ball. Turn those TO's into points and UNI wins.
