Iowa St OL has been giving their QB a good amount of time in the pocket.  May need to dial up a blitz or two.

Duke Thomas to the locker room.  Took a shot on a tackle attempt.  Like Duke, but could that be addition by subtraction?

Using your head to make a tackle will get you to the locker room.

 

[Donald Boyles]

Defense did not even show up on that drive.

Great stop on 4th there. Obviously hate to see their QB beat us on two third downs but I like the release there to get him before he could reach the LOS.

 

[tejasrulz]

We finnaly had Jefferson spy the QB to help prevent him from running on us. Great stop, now the O has to score. Whew, Heard got lucky there!

 

[BevoBlake]

I really hope that our guys didn't come into this game thinking it was in the bag.
