Chat live - Portland State Game

[bhumble]

How many teams have scored 45 points without completing a pass?

You would think PSU was playing wishbone from the stats.

531 rushing yards for Portland State. That was the difference in the game. Our defense had a long day. Kramer is not happy with long bus ride back home. I do not blame him especially after making a million dollars in the two money games. Probably have pizza to go and a sofa. Hope bus driver hits all the rest stops so players can stretch their legs a little bit. 750 miles back to Poky. Too long to be on a.bus after a game.

Well, maybe the Portland defense was the difference. Ya think?

Their corners and D ends shut us down. The D stats coming into this came was no indication of the weapons they have. Our guys have to play mad. Get mad, be bullies on the field and play with hyper aggression. Every play needs to be your last mentality.

Good to have a bye week and regroup. Next up is Northern Arizona

Last time Bengals won in Flagstaff: 1984. I guess you could say they are "due."

Sac State is a dark horse for BigSky. They have the ability to win at any given chance with their QB. Ketteringham is a beast and far underrated.

Coach Kramer is absolutely right. Portland St players were just a lot tougher than ISU's. A LOT. I thought we were supposed to have some tough linebackers. Where were they yesterday? The only tough guy I saw out there on the field was Manu, #10. He played a great game. All of the other defensive backs looked like they were afraid to tackle. It was just one arm tackle after another, as PS ripped off one long gain after another.

I'm not going to rant with one sad statement after another. I'll just end this with one thought that sums it up: The bengals got mauled.

I agree with your analysis. I hope the coaches begin to create drills that will make the players tougher. Forget about injuries. If we are not practicing hard, and challenging the players to get mad and get tough, then ISU will continue to be embarrassed. If I'm the coach, the first thing I want are tough guys on defense.
