Liveblogging Texas vs Iowa State

How exciting!

Current weather forecast for Ames says 53 degrees and raining.

Current football forecast for Iowa State says 85 players and sucking.

Corn fed chicks. Too bad you can’t make meth out of corn.

Random shot of some swans walking down a sidewalk. The Ames Board of Tourism wants you to believe it’s just like Paris.

Iowa State receives.

Bret Meyer was raised by white parents. You’ll understand when you watch him try to make plays off schedule.

Scott Derry might have a 3.8, but he failed geometry.

Dave Lapham just described Iowa State as a loose woman. They have to make Texas ‘respect them.’

Chizik is dressed like Robert Duvall in ‘The Great Santini.’ He’s going to throw the football at Todd Blythe and ask him if he’s going to ’squirt a few.’

Long pass to Shipley, and it’s 7-0. I think Chizik had 11 men in the box on that play. Can we just call broken plays?

Fox decides not to show the kickoff.

Killibrew runs himself out of the play. At least I think he did. I’m not a coach, and football is hard.

Bobino runs straight into the center’s arms screaming ‘block me!’

We send Derry and Bobino on a delayed blitz. Iowa State does not delay in completing the pass.

Our linebackers are bad. Chizik knows this better than anyone.

How the fuck is that interference with triple coverage? Oh, Erick Jackson is still looking for the ball.

Iowa State is coaching their running backs to take the cut back. Bobino just blitzes himself out of every other play.

Missed the field goal. Who is the fat guy standing behind Chizik? Does he have his own Mad Dog?

Do I dare take a peek at Iowa-Illinois or Georgia Tech-Miami? Those are my choices. Fuck you, Adam Smith.

Nebraska needs to fire Mackovic.

Dave Lapham has no inner monologue.

We’ve yet to run it.

Lots of empty set.

McCoy looks good. Still has happy feet though.

Empty set on 1st and goal. Secondary gets kind of crowded down there, Greg.

McCoy makes things happen when the play breaks down, and he throws well rolling out.

Two broken plays, two touchdowns.

Backup linebackers are in.

Jim Knox dresses like an NBC page.

We need to change our cleats.

Zone blitz on 3rd and 10.

Nice play by Foster on the fade. When you have a 6′5″ receiver, you run the fade.

Option to the short side of the field. Greg Davis has hacked into their communications!

Commercials from eHarmony and the AARP. That’s one helluva target audience.

Chiles in. QB draw goes nowhere.

Get the ball to McGee with his shoulders square.

That time out is on Chiles.

Ogbonnaya runs stiff. Needs to get his knees up.

Dave Lapham is still explaining a penalty that happened two plays ago. Must be for the loveless senior citizens watching.

Killibrew with the personal foul. Senior leadership. If a customer says they don’t like your cooking, you spit in their food. You dont’ grab them by the facemask.

Remember when McWilliams substituted the entire 2nd team offensive line against Colorado in 1990?

Jim Knox just called Muckelroy everything but his own name. I think he finally called him ‘McElmore.’

Iowa State cheerleaders just did a dance move I haven’t seen since ‘House Party.’ Maybe it was just released on DVD in Ames.

Three nice runs by Charles. And by ‘nice’ I mean he didn’t fumble.

Killibrew makes a tackle and talks shit. ‘Cordon Bleu goes the dynamite!’

Derek Lokey is a great defensive tackle. That being said, watching him run in space makes Baby Jesus cry.

Killibrew gets his second personal foul. Both of them on special teams. We take over and thus spare Brown the indignity of having to take him off the field.

Billy Pittman is playing like a man (who had his car) repossessed.

Is Strother Martin the play by play announcer at Iowa St?

Jim Knox is interviewing Mack Brown. I could literally watch that for hours.

Nebraska is down 38-0 at the half to Oklahoma State. This is the worst Nebraska defense I’ve seen since The People vs. Lawrence Phillips.

Evander Holyfield is either doing commercials for Sylvan Learning Center or fighting again. Hard to tell after watching that promo.

Chizik is confused. How do you stop the run against a team that doesn’t run the ball?

Iowa State corners play 7 yards off on 3rd and 4. Which came first? The Chizik or the Akina?

Another broken play, another touchdown.

Nice tackle by Kindle.

Foster with the int for a touchdown. Getting the all important turnover when we were clinging to a 35-3 lead.

Norton just made a tackle on the sideline on a toss sweep. At least I think he did. It will require film breakdown by the coaches to make sure.

Meyer is throwing everything high. Not stepping into this throws.

Nice shot of Iowa St cheerleader who looks like Paul Bettany.

No commercial break in between possessions. The advertisers have stopped caring.

Scott Derry looks like a white Harvey Williams in pads.

I hope those guys weren’t advertising majors.

Kindle tackles with authority. Next play Deon Beasley makes a diving interception. Our future is bright on defense.

Wow. McCoy scrambles for a 44 yard touchdown. Broken play, touchdown.

Mercifully put Chiles in.

This is going to be a long 4th quarter.

This wet field is slowing down Chiles’ cuts.

Enough of this. I’m going to switch over to Tech and A&M.

    It looks like Chizik does remember that Killibrew isn’t good.

    Akina is a farce. We’re run blitzing our LBs on every play.

  11. kchorn04
    October 13, 2007 at 9:04 am

    I am guessing that on Mack’s stat sheet for this game, Killebrew has 137 tackles and Erick Jackson has 8 passes defended with a plethora of smiley faces.

  12. SizzleChest
    October 13, 2007 at 9:04 am

    Either Chiz’s head is small or that headset is really big.

  13. kujotx
    October 13, 2007 at 9:04 am

    Dude, you didn’t have to hold. Derry’s angle took himself out of the play himself.

  14. kchorn04

    “Who is the fat guy standing behind Chizik? Does he have his own Mad Dog?”

    Ken Sheppard. He took him from MadDog’s staff. Addition by subtraction for our staff.

    Mack and Greg are punishing Jamaal by passing every down.

    Our coaches are getting tough!!!!!!!!!

    Lapham had the worst pronunciation of Ogbonnaya’s name ever.

  25. kujotx

    The Derron Montgomery of Texas, Nate Jones, makes a great catch.

  26. jimmyjazz
    October 13, 2007 at 9:15 am

    I think Duane Akina sucks considerably more than Greg Davis. He’s in a dead heat with Bull Reese, both of whom made Chizik almost look good. Greg Robinson actually was good. I think.

  27. Scipio Tex

  28. jimmyjazz

    Did they really call Scott Derry “Auston English”? I think that’s grounds for a lawsuit on English’s part.

  29. SizzleChest

    the lure of the fuck colt is strong…

  36. Scipio Tex
    October 13, 2007 at 9:21 am

    Close your eyes.

    Imagine a short, scrappy possession wide receiver with hands made of glue…

    Imagine that he is full of spirit and intangibles…

    Imagine that he is gutty and reliable and always a competitor despite not having great talent…

    Now…imagine THAT HE IS BLACK.

    Blew your mind didn’t it?

    That just happened.

  37. kevwun
    October 13, 2007 at 9:24 am

    Get Kindle out of the game. You’re not supposed to hit that hard. Someone could get hurt.

    Little people.

  40. Scipio Tex
    October 13, 2007 at 9:29 am

    Our defense is getting used by the worst offense in the Big 12. Scales averaging 6+ per pop.

    Comfort hires are a bitch.

  41. Scipio Tex
    October 13, 2007 at 9:31 am

    According to the Dave Lapham, Todd Blythe has good “high point ability.”

    The rest of the world calls this…jumping.

  42. SizzleChest
    October 13, 2007 at 9:32 am

    Comfort hire, yes, but really it was just Duane’s turn to start. You know, seniority.

  43. Sailor Ripley
    October 13, 2007 at 9:34 am

    Iowa State has 37 first downs in the first 17 minutes.

  44. srr50
    October 13, 2007 at 9:37 am

    That’s our entire second team offense.

  45. kchorn04
    October 13, 2007 at 9:40 am

    O-bunny-A with the 1st down.

  46. mileslong

    oh bunny yay with the option pitch

  47. Scipio Tex
    October 13, 2007 at 9:42 am

    Dave Lapham is extremely bright. He just learned that a team can decline a penalty.

  48. Scipio Tex
    October 13, 2007 at 9:43 am

    Nice wasted possession. How cute.

    Playing Chiles with our starters would spoil him.

  49. mileslong
    October 13, 2007 at 9:43 am

    brilliant move by davis giving chiles the second team offense…

  50. Scipio Tex

    Killebrewwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!

    God, I’ve never wanted a player to graduate more.

  51. NavyHorn16
    October 13, 2007 at 9:44 am

    Killabrew has a personal foul. Can you believe it.

    Why can’t the refs do us a favor and eject him from the game?

  52. kchorn04
    October 13, 2007 at 9:45 am

    Huskers down 24-0 to OSU.

    Somewhere Frank Solich is drinking.

  53. mileslong

    killabrew with the finger rape…

  54. kchorn04
    October 13, 2007 at 9:47 am

    Mack is probably in the process of petitioning the NCAA for Killebrew’s 5th year.

  55. mileslong

    scott dairy with the gansta strut…

  56. kchorn04
    October 13, 2007 at 9:51 am

    Mack needs to play Ishie Oduegwu. He needs to do it now. Lapham and Knox may just put a gun to their heads if he does.

    Killebrew, another personal foul.

    Why is he on scholarship?

  61. kchorn04
    October 13, 2007 at 10:03 am

    Jim Knox takes awkward to another level.

  62. mileslong

    October 13, 2007 at 10:43 am

    another great broken play from davis as he sits smiling, writing down that TD down in his stat book that he gives to mack to read when goes to the toilet…

  70. NavyHorn16

    How hard is it to pronounce “Jones”

  71. longhornmatt
    October 13, 2007 at 10:47 am

    that’s the blueprint of the greg davis offense. set it up so your players only have to break 3 tackles to make a big play.

  72. kchorn04
    October 13, 2007 at 10:51 am

    I think Bret Meyer is Iowan for Robert Killibrew.

  73. Sailor Ripley

  74. Sailor Ripley

    our first conference victory since… fuck, who cares.

  76. BRAGGonUT

    We are punishing Finley for that Oklahoma performance. Has he even gotten a target?

  77. NavyHorn16
    October 13, 2007 at 11:13 am

    Just how Greg drew it up.

  78. mileslong
    October 13, 2007 at 11:15 am

    and another GD busted play TD. he smiles and scribbles down another TD called by him with his cheeto stained stubby fingers…

  79. kchorn04
    October 13, 2007 at 11:16 am

    After Colt ran it in for 49-3, I was hoping we’d hear Lapham talk about the great relationship and weekly conversations between Brown and Chizik.

  86. srr50
    October 13, 2007 at 11:56 am

    so we take our starting fullback, put him in the spread, hand him the ball to run out the clock, and get him hurt.

    smart, real smart.

    Funny, sharp stuff, HJ. I can always appreciate the kind of quick-witted sarcasm you’re bringing. Maybe it’s because I think the same way sometimes but am a bit more gun-shy to say it. Hook ‘em

  92. srr50
    October 14, 2007 at 12:01 pm

    Our starting fullback (Antwan Cobb) tore his ACL while helping us “nurse” a 50-point lead. He is out for the rest of the season.

    Why does Greg Davis hate Fullbacks freedom?

  93. earmuffs
    October 14, 2007 at 6:06 pm

    Holy shit I can’t believe someone else not only noticed but remembers McWilliams substituting the entire 2nd team line in the ‘90 Colorado game. Possibly one of the dumbest coaching moves ever made by someone not named Les.

  94. retrobater
    October 14, 2007 at 6:26 pm

    we can afford to keep GD if he is Mack’s buddy, but lets bring
    in someone with a brain to fill the role of “special assistant to
    the offensive coordinator”. I suspect Mack got involved after
    the KState game.

    I know I’m late, but KC, in regards to this:

    “Why does the Big XII commercial highlight 12 BCS appearances? Are we celebrating automatic inclusion in a monopoly?”

    The BCS isn’t 12 years old. It started with the ‘98 season, so there have only been 9 years of BCS bowls to date… meaning the Big XII has put 2 teams in BCS Bowls several times. It’s actually not that impressive, the Big 10 has put 15 teams in BCS bowls, and the SEC has put 13.

  97. Grange95
    October 15, 2007 at 8:58 am

    “Nebraska is down 38-0 at the half to Oklahoma State. This is the worst Nebraska defense I’ve seen since The People vs. Lawrence Phillips.”

    As a lifelong Husker fan, this season is even more embarassing than the midget’s first year as head coach. Our only hope is to fire the AD and the entire coaching staff, and try to apologize to Bo Pellini (by way of a fat contract and the head of Stevie P) so he can reintroduce the advanced concept of “tackling” to the D.
