Eating a gyro from the Gyro Guy in the daylight is a mortal sin.

It's refreshing to see that someone on the other side of the ball was watching the same game that I was

Here's what I posted in that thread...

Like you pointed out, AA played one series. Now, I couldn't watch any games last season, but I do know that Tiller could not put points on the board. If AA had stayed in for the entire game, who knows how many more points ISU puts on the board. Tiller was unable to keep drives alive. Plain and simple.

Tiller wasn't a scoring QB.

I'm not a big Superdog guy. I had one once and it paled in comparison to the Gyro guy.

They will probably be predicting 40 point wins next week too.

The original poster in that thread had it right. We shut them down first series and moved it very well. If we hold onto that 3rd down pass we quite probably punch in a touchdown on the first drive and momentum swings our way. Heck, we even make the FG and we play with a little bit more perk.

Big key tomorrow is getting a good start and not letting bad things snowball on us.

I would be interested to see how many scoring drives out of how many total drives a Tiller lead offense produced. I bet it was very little. The dude was not a good quarterback.

Granted, at this point, we don't know if Jantz is any better. I'd rather the freshman start over Tiller though. Totally wrong fit for this offense.

Your points about Tiller are certainly valid.

But the excitement and hype that a lot of ISU fans have about Janz is almost identical to that of Tiller the last couple seasons.

You just don't know until they hit the field, and the I'm sure the Panthers are hoping that they can overwhelm Janz.

One of my best friends who is an ISU grad is pro-Gyro guy, anti-Super Dog. I dunno.. there is just something about a hotdog with 1.2 million toppings that I love so much... (I admint, I've never had one sober though..haha)

Gotta say, that actually surprises me.

Just proof that the hype machine vs. the coaches who actually see them play all the time is usually totally wrong.

And nothing irked me like hearing some fans in the stadium calling for Tiller last year. But what can I say, every fanbase has idiots that think the backup quarterback is the messiah and putting him in the game will totally turn around a team's prospects. Even if it defies all logic.

I'm sure the panthers will try to get in Jantz's head. The guy has little to no experience in general, let alone 50k+ fans experience. I'd come right after him with some early blitzes if I were an opposing coach.

I like the way you think... you sure you're not a true Panther fan?

The Tiller / Zach Davis episodes just proves the old saw that the best player on the team always happens to be the back up QB...

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

I thought I heard on Rima's show that Jantz has only played one year of quarterback in junior college and none in high school. Is that right?
