Sun in his eyes, pass interference by the defender and he still catches the ball. I’m gonna continue to beat this dead horse, why in the world was this kid not playing last year
Because we had a horse's rear end coach who answered to the name of Big Game James.

Ego - he went out in the portal to bring in 3 mercenaries and damn if he was going to let a player already in the program make that look bad.

Nicely executed punt coverage. Special teams look better than last year. Would like to see it continue.

Won't lie--this was better than I was expecting. I was going to be happy with a 31-13 win

All 4 backs had very similar days rushing--hopefully the OL starts getting more push/creates lanes moving forward

That answer comes when we get to conference games.
Yeah we need to see that but last year vs worse competition, we had guys who we thought could light it up in conference competition like Allar, Singleton, DDS, Durant, AJ Harris, etc didn't look so hot. Coaching, mental toughness, discipline, motivation all play into it and I like what I see.

Maybe I was wrong and we should do a welfare check on you when we check on Marshall
What in the world are you talking about? I’m quite sure no one questioned whether the Iowa State players could compete against Sun Belt teams…the question was whether they could compete in the Big Ten…I have always thought they could, but this game doesn’t answer that question…that’s what I was saying.

The RB position is sorting itself out as the game progresses. It is actually a position of depth. No one is outstanding but PSU is 4-5 deep.

I’ve never doubted they could play at the Big Ten level because I don’t think the Big 12 is as weak as many on here think it is.

LOL--no, your reply made it very clear what your agenda here is--you don't need to own it
I defended you originally but nope--you're on the same page as Marshall and the other insane Franklin defenders.

What? So now the ISU guys can compete in the B10? You just posted that we need to wait and see how they do in conference games. Get a grip.
