Football 2015: Bring it on!

Tough to sell ISU game tickets at $65 when they are on sale for $40 on craigslist list or stubhub. Especially when you can buy a season UNI FB ticket starting at $59.

You can also buy a ticket to the UNI, Iowa, and another game of your choice for $99 from ISU. I almost did that and sold the other 2.

Do we know who our QB is going to be yet? Or will it be a game day surprise?

We were going to do that, but they sold out of that package a few weeks ago. Oh well. Better to buy ours through UNI anyway.

In theory, it's still a three man race, with Demos being dropped. Bailey is out a week (until this Monday) with a pulled hamstring. But I can't imagine missing a week of reps is going to help his game any. Especially when his mobility is one of the differentiators vis a vie Sawyer.

Demos being dropped?

Re: Football 2015: Bring it on!

So who are the 3? When did Demos get dropped?

Re: Football 2015: Bring it on!

So, Davis runs a spread option look that would give Bailey the edge? That's news to me.

Re: Football 2015: Bring it on!

My reference to "Demos being dropped" could be read a number of different ways. Sorry for that. I think that the more proper phrase "it appears that he is being dropped form consideration for starting QB role"

Per WCF Courier, link regarding Bailey injury

Still looking for the other article I read that inferred that Demos was out of consideration. There was never an outright statement of such.

If you are referring to my mobility comment above, I will say is that Sawyer is probably the least mobile of the four QBs in consideration. What that counts for in Joe Davis' eyes, who knows.

Here is the second article, that dropped Demos from the conversation for QB starter /backup. Uncertain if that is accurate info

Sam Richardson will be the most veteran quarterback on the field, and he'll lead an offense that could be among the Big 12's top five. The Panthers went into camp not knowing which of three quarterbacks would be their starter — coach Mark Farley choosing among Sawyer Kollmorgen, Illinois transfer Aaron Bailey and former Grinnell star Eli Dunne.

Is their offense really going to be that good? I mean the offense is better than the defense but we're talking about one of the worst defenses all of FBS. Richardson is one of their bright spots but the passing game was the definition of "middle-of-the-road" last year.

There's no reason to believe, outside of pure ISU homerism on CF, that ISU will have any special from their offense this coming weekend.

I know whenever I want cutting edge info on UNI football, I turn to the DSM Register....

Re: Football 2015: Bring it on!

JP just tweeted that we returned tickets we are not using and that they have 600+ left.

Iowa game is sold out....apparently he forgot to hold back one ticket

Now that the UNI game is sold out, I still hope that Pollard finds a way to reduce the stadium capacity by 1 for the Iowa game, so that the attendance record will be held for a UNI game rather than an EIU game.
