Defense is getting their shorts pulled down but the offense has left them on the field almost all day and when the offense moves the ball they implode at some point.

I think I’ve seen a WR get open once today. Are our WR bad or their DB’s great? Have a bad feeling I know the answer

Don't follow ISU football too closely.....but closely enough to say that I will be surprised if we make the playoffs. Possible we might not win another game with the murderers row schedule we have left.

how can this offense not figure out how to get sme first downs and touch downs against this defense ? Get an 80 yard gift from KR and get nothing but a FG.

The O line has been horrible today. A bunch of missed blocks and they are getting owned by NAU. Too many times ISU is losing yardage and getting in 2nd and 3rd and long situations and NAU is just teeing off.

I have not changed my mind since last year that the O Coordinators are not very good.

This is hard to watch. I guess NAU was just supposed to roll over. They have a new QB in, right?

Do we lead the world in completed 3 yard passes with a stationary receiver and defender on his back. That’s good for a REDBIIIIIIIIRD 3 yard gain. SMH

I'd wager we will see Case Cookus playing on Sundays.

Along with South Dakota's Chris Strevler. Maybe my Chicago Bears can snag one of these guys.

It sems that we've grown overconfident, and have been exposed. What we thought would be problems during the off season have finally shown.

NAU is one of the worst teams in the country at stopping the run. Their opponents average over 5 yds per carry. We can't run the ball against them effectively.

We knew going in that our OL was a big concern. We were on the hunt for a lineman who could play immediately, but were unsuccessful. When we simply were playing teams not on our level, we looked pretty good. But now as we've moved into our conference games and against a reputable opponent it shows that we have big problems on the line.

We knew that we had needs at WR. We brought in a couple of transfers to help, but one wasn't eligible and the other hasn't shown much so far. Our receivers have not been able to consistently create separation from defenders or to catch the ball.

We're not a bad team, but we're not very good either. And if we don't play as hard as the other team, like tonight, it really shows.

Face facts. We beat four cupcakes and are getting taken to the woodshed by a decent team.

I haven't been this frustrated with this team/program in a while.

I was really frustrated in our loss to richmond two years ago...
