Didn't stay up for the game due to having a busy Sunday slate, but woof... I knew we would lose, but that's a rough look. I think this is a good time to have a bye week. It will give the team an extended period to look at what went right and what went wrong against Mercer, Utah Tech, and Washington and try to figure something out going into conference play. We have a lot to fix up, that's for sure.

to be fair though... that was a varsity level miss

LMAO NO GOOD

lol 2 holdings in a row

I'm aware and it was just a joke about the 2 QB statement... ISU clearly looks improved over previous seasons

ISU loses 32-22... with 2 QBs :joke:

Go Ags! Beat the Huskies!

I'm guessing it's just going to be some sort of promotion, but would be cool if they dropped bigger news

I think that about sums it up. The money and barometer against a legit FBS team are nice, but the absolute biggest thing is coming out of the game healthy. We have a bye week after, but we don't need to be sustaining any major injuries in the game that doesn't really matter (unless we do somehow win).

I guess they're going with the "if you wanna be the best you gotta be at the best" mentality. Should be a good battle.

Lmao this guy

I managed to stay awake to the end of the game, but a pretty miserable viewing experience. Not sure if the problem was on ESPN or Utah Tech's side, but to have a feed that is pretty much unwatchable for a large part of half the game in 2025 is pretty crazy.

Obviously I'm happy that we were able to pull out the win, but unless Utah Tech goes on to have an amazing season this was still a fairly rough performance. The OL was doing Pinnick no favors with their protection (especially in the beginning of the game), but he also will need to learn when to learn when to appropriately get rid of the ball; too many negative yard plays overall either on misreads in play action or trying to get too fancy in the backfield. Awesome that Fisher broke 100 yards and his early TD was pretty impressive speed.

Defense played as well as you could have hoped given how often they were on the field. The Connors never disappoint and it was good to see some of the new guys with impact plays. Shoutout to Cofield on the outside getting a huge interception with a return as a true freshman. I'm also glad that Ridley finally got FG conversion, but concerns that we've had 2 FGs blocked through the Mercer and UT games.

I figured that there would be growing pains with a new QB, no Lan Larison, and a young WR corps, but they still have a whoooole lot to work out before conference play because Big Sky teams will chew us up if we play like we did in the first half tonight. At the end of the day, a win is a win and I'm glad the guys didn't give up. GO AGS!

I'm close to calling it quits here. I'm on the east coast so it's after midnight already and the Ags are showing no signs of life.

This is pathetic

What the hell man. The offense can't do anything right

No bueno

- Offense looked incredibly flat outside of Fisher's TD
- Special teams/kicking has been horrendous so far this season... Have already left what like 9 or 12 points off the board so far between the 2 games
- Defense is doing what they can, but getting no help from the rest of the team
- Plough is supposed to be an offensive guru... Figure something out

If we can't get 1 yard of push against UT then we are in big trouble

We got to figure something out. I figured there would be some growing pains with a new QB and no Lan Larison, but this is rough

Fumble! Now get some POINTS

for the amount of experience on the line it's definitely concerning how little time they are giving Pinnick
