Anyone know who's wearing #10 at WR? He caught a pass earlier and the announcers said it was Sobkowicz, except #12 listed as Sob came up and congratulated #10 after the play. Doesn't show either on the game notes roster or the "official" roster.

2025?!? Another .500 season this year and my guess is next season will be Coach’s last chance to right the ship.
That's when his contract runs out and we all know ISU doesn't like to buy out.

Punting from the 30 for the 2nd time this year. Unacceptable!
Totally. Anyone here with eligibility and a big leg? Heck at this point gimme Lucy Draper.

Need a big play from each side of the ball. How about a pick6, a stop, and a bomb from Annex.

Annexsted 2.0…I believe.
Yes, he just caught a punt and they announced it. Seems to me there was a penalty a game or two ago for having two #8's on the field at the same time during a kick - Wilhoit also wears #8 - I'll bet Brock switched #'s to fix that problem. Thank you!

So disappointing all that momentum, drive it all the way to the 15. Finally got a little running game going, and on 2nd 3rd and 4th shots to the end zone instead of just keep moving it.

The offense was extremely stagnant in the first half. It felt like last year all over again with the play calling and all. I felt the play calling hand cuffed the offense in the first half and then we opened it up in the second half and played well. Not sure if anyone else felt that way.

Did not realize that 3 offensive lineman were out and TE Deming left early in game. Now they need to win one on the road. Hopefully, WWright plays next week.

That offensive pass interference on Sobowicz and unnecessary roughness on Zeke were horrible calls. The female ref threw by far the most flags and had several questionable calls including those 2 and the debatable no PI call on 3rd down at the end. We should've won regardless though

She told a friend of mine, prior to the game, she had VERY, VERY little experience reffing college or HS fball, but she had reffed a lot of HS bball.

That's totally nuts. If true, that is on the conference.

I have no idea how much experience she has, but if you google her name, she appears to have some college hoops reffing experience, and there is an article, most of which is behind a paywall, that says she reffed in the North-South football all-star game a year ago. So she must have some experience, hard to say how much.

On a related matter, the head ref tonight is a guy I recognize from DIII games in Minnesota, a guy we nicknamed "Stretch" because of his height, who I always thought was a fairly poor ref at that level. Did nothing tonight to change my mind.

God bless anyone who refs, has to be, at least at the lower levels, a pretty thankless job. But we are fans after all, and entitled to our opinions!! ;)
