Heads22 Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 It's a good offense...if you have the pieces and disciplined players. That's impressive that your high school can pull that off. Of course in theory it would work better against high school defenses because they have probably never seen it before. We had the #8 receiver in the state....first in Class 3A as a Soph last year and the number 9 passer , #2 in 3A who is now a senior and a buddy of mine.

ZoomSlowik Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Can we stop all the stuff about how NU could surprise the Big Ten this year? You ain't going nowhere in that conference without a defense. First off, the Big Ten is kind of weak this year, so you never know. Second, TCU has a very good offense, it's not like the little sisters of the poor put up 48 on them. Second, they managed to win the Big Ten in 2000 with a weak defense, they just outscored everyone, much like Michigan did that year to share the title. It looks like they could be doing that again, with what looks like could be some interesting shootouts against Minnesota and Purdue. Lastly, you're drawing conclusions from one game against a team that to the best of my knowledge no other Big Ten team plays, while no other Big Ten team has played yet. As for the kicker thing, that really disheartened me. That will be the last thing I say about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomSlowik Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Don't forget who won the tiebreaker and went to the Rose Bowl that year ...had to throw that in there Yeah, but it was still a split.

ZoomSlowik Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 All I have to say is this I will not argue with that in any way shape or form. They should dominate the Big Ten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You ain't going nowhere in that conference without a defense. Have fun stopping that offense..... Oh wait, was an Illinois fan trash talking in football? I think all the Illinois fans should be banned from trashing until their team can actually win a game against a I-A opponent. I mean puh lease. Who are you kidding?

Heads22 Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 ISU shut out Northern Iowa 23-0 in a game that UNI was favored by 4.5 in. Clones held them under 100 yards in total offense. Iowa State might do ok this year. I'm encouraged. Two friends of mine also played today, so that was cool too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 Well here's the way I'm connecting the dots. ISU should've pulled out a win in DeKalb last year. ISU beat UNI 17-10 last year. UNI is a better team than last year and we beat them by 23. The NIU-ISU game is in Ames.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
