Official Game Thread: Oklahoma State vs. Iowa State

[Clonestar85]

I get that you're saying the ISU offensive failures against OSU's defense made ISU's D look bad. But you have to give credit to the OSU D, then, for having an effect on offense (which I wasn't even considering before). FYI, OSU had 2, not 3 fourth down stops. And both stops were fairly well into OSU's side of the field.

Also, I take back what I said earlier. OSU scored a defensive TD against Texas, so Texas' D only allowed 25 points. KSU's D only allowed 24 due to a defensive TD. Tulsa allowed a kickoff return TD, so their D actually allowed 21 points. And I didn't even mention Boise State, whose D allowed 21 points.

So in summary, ISU's D allowed the same amount of (effective) points as Baylor, Texas, Kansas State, and Missouri State, almost down to the point...and allowed more points than Boise St. and Tulsa. One can hold out hope that the upcoming Kansas D will put on a worse showing than ISU did, though.

Giving up that last TD drive was the worst moment of the season for the OSU defense, though. And, yes, it did surprise me.

I am not taking anything away from OSU. I believe the Pokes are a very good team. IMO, OSU/ISU have the best balance in the league. I am hopeful that ISU keeps winning, and both teams are Dallas bound

I used to think more of ISU fans, but if Clone here is a representation . . . phew.

On the flip side there Daddy, I respect OSU fans in spite of your posts.

Easy there sport…I am in Texas and have probably been here longer than you have been alive. Big Daddy may not want to admit it but he knows I am right about the lineman pulling Presley. Should have been a penalty but they chose to mark him down just in front of where he started to get pulled forward.

Let's not pull the age thing. You have no idea how old I am. And if you're going to be an Iowa State fan and come on here and spew this crap, then you better be willing to be called out on it.

Well, considering they had a TD taken off the board due to a very controversial celebration penalty, I don't blame them. They're great fans who support their team, even when they're not doing that well.

i have to agree this time. A highly hyped prime time game, their Homecoming, a hard fought game and an enthusiastic fan base was the perfect mix. After all, we celebrate wins too.

The age comment was drawing attention to your maturity level. Your Iowa acronym use was childish so you were called out.

See, there's the difference in your maturity level and those of other Iowa people I know, and I know quite a few. They would have just laughed it off and moved on.
