If I'm a ND fan, I'm pissed. There is no way you can overturn that.

David Grimes, Stanford 2007. After that reversal, anything is in play. The replay officials loathe us.

Maybe the refs didn't see that sideline angle (although I think they do see all replays) because that other angle looked like he stepped out.

They see whatever TV shows us.

I'm not sure if Iowa is any good or if we are just picking on an abysmal Iowa State team. It's nice to see a Frosh, RB play well though.

 

i'm still not sold on iowa. isu could not have played worse.

 

I'm not either. The line still looks weak at times and Stanzi is average at best. The D is good but ISU could have kept themselves in it if it weren't for some awful penalty's on there part. Plus they tried to throw deep a lot against a team that designed to prevent the deep ball.

 

I think they'll be top half of the Big Ten though because the conference just isn't that great.

 

I agree with not being "sold" on Iowa but how the hell did the line look weak at times?

 

Robinson and Wegher ran 27 times for 170. The team ran 35 for 191, 5.5 a carry. Stanzi had all day in the pocket the entire game. They were below average last week but got 2 starters back and looked really good, albeit against a bad Big 12 team today. And that was without a preseason All-American.

 

The D is top 10 quality nationally and the o-line when healthy is top 10 nationally with an elite TE. The key to the year is Stanzi and the backs. Stanzi didn't have a very good game but he's an above average Big Ten QB. And I don't care if we have a white back if he runs like Wegher as a true freshman. How they play on the road will dictate the season.

 

I also don't understand any complaint about play calling today. I thought it was excellent and one of the best games O'Keefe has had. If Stanzi executes the throws he typically makes we win that game 45-3.

Wyoming just got screwed by the refs.

 

They were on a 2nd and 10 in the red zone when a Texas player was called for unsportsmanlike conduct. The penalty was half the distance to the goal and the refs gave Wyoming an automatic first down and goal. Wyoming ran a run play and got stuffed at the 5 yard line. However, the refs realized they were wrong in giving Wyoming the automatic first down, so it should have been 2nd down and goal. The refs would not let Wyoming rerun their play after the penalty, so now Wyoming has it at 3rd down and goal.

I hate running out of timeouts.

 

And I really really hate them showing the Phantom-Clip play over and over again. That still pisses me off and I was 4 at the time.
