  1. They look like they're giving the finger. maybe they are to Pat Forde Because Ames has soooo much to offer!
  2. They're going to cut a guy they drafted and paid? Hmmm. Not the first time it's happened.
  3. If you want to spy just go up to the parking garage that over looks the fields. Of course you won't see much of anything if they go indoors but you can get a good look at Taylor's throwing motion.
  4. I thought it he ran the toss right before, couldn't remember off the top of my head though. Sometimes having the habit of running the same play back, to back, to back pays off.
  5. There is either a) not sh#t going on in Idaho as well or b) nobody friggin lives there.
  6. That's an interesting play. It tries to capitalize on fast-pursuing defenses, but in order to work it relies on strong backside blocking. If we're talking about the same play, it's the one where Taylor's in the shotgun (or pistol - can't remember) with a running back to either side. He gets the snap, takes his first step to the right while both RBs break left, then Taylor turns and follows them as lead blockers. With Imani and a strong blocking TE on the play side that could be a big gainer for us. The one time I specifically recall that play in the NW game we got five or six yards. Yep that's the one. I think Taylor also made a nice throw on the run off of it - for a 1st down. Now that you mention it, I remember that, too. For a guy who's not a natural QB he's made impressive strides in his skill set. I don't buy in to Bo's statement that Taylor could be an NFL QB, but for college he's just fine. I really love that naked boot run pass option against MSU that Taylor took to the house. Entire MSU D going the other way and remaining defenders trying to watch Taylor and the WRs. That was a thing of beauty! Beck set it up perfectly by using the run complement several times through out the game and once before on that drive. It's a pretty high risk play if you think about it. With no backside blocking if one defender figures it out then Taylor is going to get smoked as soon as he turns.
  7. Really not surprised here, that's basically his m.o. break it loose and it's off to the races.
  8. Every time I look at it I still do. I keep clicking on it expecting some nasty ass story about a girl taking a drink out of a spit bottle or something.
  9. EDIT - ESPN has some highlights HERE. Only big plays, though. *wonders if knapp is really so senile in his old age that he cant tell that is a video game clip...* Probably the only time I'll get to use this for Knap.
  10. We may very well have got the top running back out of Texas, so I'm fine with a slight drop in numbers if that's the case.
  11. I'll give it another year before I pass judgment. Mostly minor stuff for 2013. But personally I think most of the assault charges should get you kicked off the team the second you're found guilty.

    Except at the chili feed!
  16. And there is the first major backlash from this bullcrap head-to-head contact obsession. I guarantee we continue to see more of this. Not sure what your getting at. It was an open field tackle on a big tight end, unless your a linebacker you going to go low. His cleat got stuck in the ground and that's what f'd him, unfortunately it's just one of those things that can happen to anyone. What I'm getting at is that Swearinger openly admitted that he went lower because he was afraid of getting a fine for a helmet-to-helmet hit. If that's what he said then I guess. I just feel like 9 times out of 10 he's going below the waist on that one anyway.
