***Official Outback Bowl Game Thread***

[Msubulldogfan1]

3 and outs by both teams to start.

 

[forestdepth]

I know this is beating a dead horse but I HATE that Moorhead didn’t start Aeris. I didn’t complain throughout the year because I get it. But at least put Aeris out in the starting drive. Come on.

 

[SecretCroomMustacheLover2]

I’m all for screen passes but...... not on third down.

 

[The Usual Suspect]

It feels like we are so predictable on offense.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Got 3 on the board.

 

[FlotownDawg]

It would’ve worked if Austin Williams had been able to block his man.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Defense forces another 3 and out. MSU crowd sounds good and loud.

 

[Charlie Varney]

Shoop's Troops came to play today....

They are kicking azz right now.

 

[thatsbaseball]

Watching this D is pissing me off at JoMo again.......

 

[Grove Sh*tter]

I like this plan. Grind their asses down on the ground. Sweep the proverbial leg on d.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Jesus why is KT running routes?

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Key is being retooled.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Passing game looks bad right now.

 

[Charlie Varney]

Evidently not to catch the ball.

 

[bulldogbaja]

Yeah he just flunked his WR audition.

 

[PearlRiverCoDawg]

Sad thing is the guys are open. That gives me hope at least

 

[KeyserSoze1999]

So we're turning Key into a WR?

 

[The Usual Suspect]

Key is being retooled.

Do that stuff after we have a 20 pt. lead. If that pass was to a normal receiver it is 6 pts. Joe Mo is doing everything possible to irritate me today.*

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

Setting up for a trick play later.

 

[Seinfeld]

Nick’s last throw was pretty awful. I think it was Jackson that was wide open in the end zone, and Nick only underthrew it by about 12 yards.

 

[BigMotherTucker]

I was bitching on twitter that we were trying to be to cute with him... But that actually makes sense. If we are still flirting with a transfer and then handing the keys over to a RS freshman.

 

[forestdepth]

Setting up for a trick play later.

I think you’re right

 

[bully12]

So we're turning Key into a WR?

Not seeing how that's going to work; he just dropped one of the easiest balls he's ever going to get thrown his way.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Iowa is draining every second they can off the clock.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Two 15 yard penalties, about to give them a free FG.

 

[KeyserSoze1999]

Refs are going to have to help Iowa score.

 

[PearlRiverCoDawg]

Anyone know what conference the refs are from?

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

There it is... that's one way to even the game, start throwing ******** flags.

 

[FlotownDawg]

The PAC 12 I think. This is the same referee that ejected Benny Snell from the Music City Bowl last year for touching him. That was targeting though.

 

[The Usual Suspect]

Nick’s last throw was pretty awful. I think it was Jackson that was wide open in the end zone, and Nick only underthrew it by about 12 yards.

I love Nick and what he has done at MSU, but this year our inability to pass downfield when needed against good defenses is the reason we lost 4 games. We get predictable with QB runs up the middle and screen passes.

 

[tatedog]

ESPN and their smart *** commentators can go straight to hell.

 

[triton28]

I hate ******** flags too but that was targeting.

 

[NPCSlayer]

Two weak *** flags. Whining about cowbells. Sport has become so weak like everything else in society.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

Let’s get a damn TD right here boys!

 

[The Usual Suspect]

There it is... that's one way to even the game, start throwing ******** flags.

He hit the receiver in the head with the top of his helmet. Textbook foul and called every time.
And, if our players don't have enough self control to not do a throat slash after a tackle, they deserve that one too.

 

[Msubulldogfan1]

I hate ******** flags too but that was targeting.

The rule needs to be adjusted. That’s rediculous to throw a player out of the game for a hit like that.

 

[bulldogbaja]

Iowa just got back to zero yards.

 

[Seinfeld]

It was, and I have no idea as to what Smitherman was even trying to do. He literally made zero attempt to make an actual play

 

[KeyserSoze1999]

I wonder if these SJW announcers know that Iowa has famously painted their opponents locker room Pink for decades...not very politically correct.***

 

[FlotownDawg]

Throat slash gesture is always a personal foul. It specifically talks about that gesture in the rule book. And that was 100 percent targeting. Lowered the crown of his helmet and hit the guy in the helmet.
