Do we have a sack yet?

No. We have been getting good pressure. Just two steps short most of the time. But making the Qb move around and change his view.

 

[Riddickulous]

Run out the clock

 

[Meatloaf]

Hate the clock management. We have 2 timeouts.

 

[Irishman77]

No balls at all. What a Rees of crap

 

[ARALOU]

How can you not be happy with the first half? I know I am.

Solid performance.

 

[BGIF]

Book averaging 16.5 yds/completion.

 

[irishff1014]

Very good first half. Still need to make some changes. And need to run TJ up the middle more than out side.

 

[Circa]

No balls at all. What a Rees of crap

and If the D gets a pick 6 ISU comes out in the 2nd half rolling...

 

[Dizzyphil]

Run out the clock

Yes....


Get some rest.... let Lea make his adjustments....no turnover..... nobody gets hurt..




14 point lead going into the half....

I'm nervous it's not enough. ISU is a huge 4th quarter team. Plus, if ISU gets 7 right out of the half, the pressure will be on.

 

[notredomer23]

Considering all we heard all week was this team isn’t focused and that this is ISU’s biggest game ever, that’s about as good a first half we can have.

I wanna see Kmet involved but as long as Claypool keeps owning who cares

 

[Huntr]

Solid 1st half. Some duuummmb play calling, but likely trying to set up the deep ball later. Our run game still sucks and pass rush is spotty. Claypool is so good, gonna miss him.

With the rain and a 14 point lead nah. Just end it. But might have been a different story if TJ catches that ball wide open.

So is Clark Lea and Irish defense.....

 

[irishff1014]

So is Clark Lea and Irish defense.....

He went prevent to early on that last drive. Need to figure out how to speed up the rush and get a sack or two.

 

[IrishLax]

Iowa State and ND moving the ball equally well, difference has been ND creating turnovers like they have all year. Big plays at key moments is how you get into halftime with a 2 TD lead.

 

[pumpdog20]

So is Clark Lea and Irish defense.....

We'll see. Going prevent was stupid right before half. If they put a little pressure those first two plays on that drive, ND gets home are causes a bad throw.

 

[BGIF]

Hate the clock management. We have 2 timeouts.

Really?

ND must be winning.



One of those timeouts was a chess move following Campbell's timeout on a 4th and short ... which ND shutdown.


Shrewd clock management!

Well executed by Lea, Kelly, and the players.



Did you want to save the timeouts for the halftime show?

 

[BGIF]

Iowa State and ND moving the ball equally well, difference has been ND creating turnovers like they have all year. Big plays at key moments is how you get into halftime with a 2 TD lead.

... particularly when the offense is 1-7 on 3rd downs.

 

[Dizzyphil]

This I agree with....

We'll see. Going prevent was stupid right before half. If they put a little pressure those first two plays on that drive, ND gets home are causes a bad throw.

Maybe.. don't know... I didn't like the prevent but, kid was lucky to catch that on the 2 yard line..... decent coverage - could have been a little better....

 

[Mavericknyc1980]

Solid first half wish they were aggressive to close the half.

[Dizzyphil]

Didn't like the trick play... no need. And quit running outside and pulling line... up the middle Rees.... and no sweeps on the short side of the field please.....

 

[Irish YJ]

I'll take it. Wish our pass D was a bit better, but overall happy with the way they came out.

Still hate when they don't defer to start the game.

 

[pumpdog20]

Getting closer to Purdy...

 

[pumpdog20]

Nice job Pride!!

 

[Meatloaf]

Nice opening series by the D

 

[NDBoiler]

Great job by Pride on that tackle
