Iowa State vs Utah Week 13 College football 25 Simulation

[Music] welcome to Salt Lake city where the mighty Utah student section is ready to turn this place into a cauldron of noise tricle Stadium home to the Utah yous what a game we have in store for you today a big 12 Showdown and the implications could last for the rest of the season as we'll see the Iowa State Cyclones taking on the 12th ranked team in the land the Utah yous for EA Sports college football I'm ree Davis David Pollock and Jesse Palmer with me guys it's time to get it [Applause] going the yous will get us started with the opening kickoff and he takes this from inside the five didn't find any crease in that kickoff coverage and he'll be stopped at the 17 the Cyclones offense will get the first crack at it here and here comes the big fella a staple of this aerial attack Jesse and he's a guy that can line up all over the field David there's matchups out there waiting to be taken advantage of yeah and it's so nice to be able to do that makes it easy to play quarterback when you can feature a guy like this that's fast big and strong you know defensively you live by the Blitz and you die by the blitz that time they dialed it up into the Run play the linebacker able to make a nice count this crowd trying to make life miserable for this offense looking to throw it's back and that pass picked off and he's going to take it all the way Dodge down Utah I mean you talk about coming out of the defense and setting the tone and letting them know it's going to be a long game let's do this how about a pick six on the first possession nice job by the defense coming out and striking Clos in this ball game they'll try to add another to their lead and the extra point makes it seven [Applause] [Music] nothing they're about to kick it away and the defense probably can't wait to get back out there after the pick six on the move from inside is five didn't find any crease in that kickoff coverage and he'll be stopped at the 17 Iowa state has the ball back with Cyclones ready to go on offense well the good news is they threw a touchdown pass last time it was just to the wrong team Jesse well that's an unfortunate part of the game for quarterbacks but guess what they do have it so you've got to be able to turn the page here and Lead this offense well I think you know this defense is going to be aggressive they're going to jump routes they're going to play aggressive you got to take advantage of that maybe that this time to your advantage after the three- yd pickup they come to the line Second and seven he'll run it again oh gave the defender the business good solid determined run there they'll Mark him down at the 27 keep pounding away at this defense and make them play the run if you can get this many a chunk they're going to have to commit more guys to the Box more guys to the run then you open it up for the passing they'll try to move the chains on Third and short from the 27 they'll try to bully their way for the first they'll move those chains getting it out to the 29 yd line and trying to get this drive rolling and that's so tough as a defense because they only got to get inches but I got to find a way to somehow get a knock back stop the running back's feet right there I couldn't do it he gets downhill just enough and he gets the first down it's a good job too there on third down by the offense because a major statistic in football in terms of winning and losing is how good are you at staying on the field keeping drives alive whether it's third and long or third and ined you just have to go execute really good offenses are able to attack short You' got to be able to attack your whole field to make you honor that underneath part then the intermediate part and then you take shots down the field this will loosen up some shots for later in the game now on second and short after the first down completion the playaction fake zings it complete to the right and he's brought down at the 40 yd line and that'll be a first down no reason to panic when you see those extra bodies coming just find the big tight end well and the great ones do that I think the great ones are okay you want a blitz I know my answers I'm all right I'll stay patient find the matchup this time it was the tight end finds the tight end throws a strike gets the first down out of the gun they'll run it inside a confident tough efficient run gets it up to the 44 that's a really nice play it's impressive when it's first down and the defense thinks you might be running the football you still can line up you can get some movement at the point of attack and find a little frease for your run solid pick up a four on first down it's second and six back to pass it's Beck the quick out that's where they'll Mark him a very productive play and a first down love the grab just p pass the first down line to allow the drive to continue so that's a nice play by the QB and receiver there the Cyclones will snap it on First and 10 motion from the offense from the gun running back gets to give one step WRA Two Step squeeze this junior knows how to get him on the ground now that's what you're trying to do as a defense limit those damages when they run the foot ball get him on the ground short gains to set your defense for positive situations down the road got three on first down and second and seven he's looking to throw and they got him for the sack this defense has the ability to get pressure on the QB from The Edge and I don't necessarily mean from defensive ends but from the outside linebackers these guys getting their Sprinter stances and they come off the ball that outside linebacker showed you his speed right there ninth play of the drive coming up but this one will be tough third and long he's looking downfield to throw using the back as a receiver on the screen they play that screen nicely he tried to find his way to to the marker but it'll be fourth down they allowed the completion but this defense was swarming to keep them away from that first down line yeah and you allow completions in those third down situations underneath the sticks and you come up and rally and everybody flies to the football that's great execution by this defense fourth down and the punt team sends it the other way how about this it's out of bounds inside the 10 and they're going to mark it right around the 5 yd line what a great job there so the Utah 's offense will go to work for the first time today one way to mitigate the explosive capabilities he has on the outside is be physical with him and this dude will do that he will do that and you don't see a lot of offenses take the top off this D because of this guy roaming around in the middle of the field he is a true center fielder so this receiver is going to have to make plays I just justes such a great job of getting guys on the ground a lot of people are in position but he makes plays so him versus a dynamic wide receiver on the outside will be a great matchup hand off to the lone back he's dropped behind the line of scrimmage that'll be a loss of three offense backed up defense knows they want to run the football to create a little bit of room nice aggressive downhill attack getting in the back field almost getting the safety and pretty good job by the running back just to avoid giving up the two points just inch that ball out of there they'll go to the ground and he's not going to get there the defense Stands Tall and makes the stop he brought down at the yd line now fourth down and the youth will try to pin them back with the punt away sometimes avoiding disaster is the best thing the punter just gets it out of there and The Return Man is stopped and that'll leave it up to the offense on the next Drive looking for a productive play on first down they're going to open this drive with a pass fires to the big fella and that defense is there to guide him out of bounds after a short gain must be nice for this quarterback going he's got this type of acuum playing the tight end position work the middle of the field form he's a guy who can stretch it vertically as well but this is a guy the QB will look for early and often in this game guys that's the end of the quarter and Utah has the lead here we played one before we move on let's have a look at the [Applause] stats they are lined up and ready to go and get things started here in the second to throw it's spe just a short pass to the tight end tackle is made after the first down really nice job there by the quarterback understanding it's Blitz and not just that it's Blitz but knowing whether it's man coverage or Zone coverage behind the blitz You' still got to know where your answer is going to be based on what the defense is doing in the back end and he add the answer to the test right there pulls and throws off the RPO headed to the end zone touchdown Iowa State and once he found daylight it was Katie Bar the Door baby one of the reasons this offense is so exciting to watch they've got guys that are dangerous after the catch if this quarterback gets through his progression David he hits you in stride these guys will take it to the house man it's your job to do the rest right you hit me in stride where I don't have to stop running I don't have to break down it makes it so easy the connection between quarterback wide receiver you can tell this is a good one and that's why they got six on that [Applause] play lining up for the pat Point smashes it through for the p8 quick strike offense on that three playay scoring drive and they top it off with a 31 yd toss for six all tied up and just about set to kick it [Applause] away from inside the 10 yd line he'll bring it back nice job executing all of the assignments as they put a stop to that return at the 22 the Utah offense returns ready to go back on the attack fires to the big fella and that is good versatility there and a big hit from the backer in pass coverage second nice job by the defense staying glued to him getting him on the ground as soon as he catches the football knowing he's a threat I'm not going to let this guy get out of my sights nice job by the D it's now second down after the short completion they move the tight end all [Applause] over quarterback on the keeper a strong tackle and wrap up from the junior yeah and it's a nice job by this defense understand listen that QB is a and they're going to run all kinds of options and he's going to run the football they were dialed in and got that sucker to the [Applause] ground fairly manageable distance here on third down from the 27 out of the gun the inside hand off looking for a crease and the defense knew exactly where that first down line was and they stopped him short offense facing fourth down the UTS line up to punt it away this will be the second time they've had to kick it away he's brought down but there's also a penalty marker down let's see what this is about personal foul ring the kicker so the decision has been made and the coach will take the penalty so the offense keep this drive alive thanks to the roughing the punter penalty and they'll bring him to the ground after a short gain all right well the offense here they're trying to get this run game established they obviously don't break off a long run there but they're just trying to find their footing at this [Applause] point after the three- yd pickup they come to the line Second and seven they try to pop a run on the draw and a good solid pick up before the defense Cuts him down draws are such a smart way to take advantage of fast defensive lineman that want to get up field and get after the quarterback it keeps him honest makes him realize they got to play the run too great play call after the last run would you just give it to him again on third down to the ground to try to move Mo the chains he's got first down yardage as they move it to the 44 you got to wonder if that's a moral victory for this offensive line cuz they have not been running the ball well at all all game long but on that short yardage situation they finally pick it up and maybe that's going to be the catalst for them to get this thing going and Spark the Run game and the yous getting set on First and 10 they'll put the tight end in motion looks as if they didn't get it off in time it'll be a delay game delay of game offense offense took a little bit too much time at the line there back behind the chains first and 15 leaves it with the back and just wedges it ahead a bit before he's brought down and it's just simple simple first down run showing your physicality setting your offense up in a good spot tried to pound it on first down now back to the line to the air it's ryy they're working that left side couple of guys there to get him on the ground this receiver is so dangerous out in space and it's a nice job by the QB getting him the ball early on the curl route and you see once he has it he's got some wiggle he's got some shake makes some def Defenders Miss and gets up the field trying to put together a long time consuming drive this eighth play will be third and two he'll keep it himself open space at the 25 and they'll finally bring him down after he rips off a huge play there's an example of the offense taking advantage of all the attention the defense is giving this outstanding running back remember he's one of the best in the game they're expecting him to get the football so the quarterback says you know what I'll just just keep it no one's keying on me I'm going to get up field and find an explosive play they'll ride the running back and leave it with him he's dropped behind the line of scrimmage that'll be a loss of three they're trying to run the football there's just nowhere to go for the ball carrier inside he tried to bounce it to the outside that linebacker way too fast he met him there and forced the tfl got some work to do on second down after that last one they need 13 here's the handoff steam rolls his way ahead and he broke one tackle on the way to a solid pick up there this running back just doesn't go down easy it's just difficult for defenses to get him on the ground not overly huge but if I'm an offensive coordinator I'm going to continue to find ways to feature him and just you know what let his talent do the rest we'll take a quick break as we have reached the final two minutes of the first [Applause] half really need to pick up this conversion and avoid having to settle for the field goal on third down going up top they get enough rush and it pays off the sack at the 20 the defense going to stop the clock with the timeout they want to make sure they have everybody on the same page and they'll send out the field goal unit on they pick the spot it's going to be about a 37 yd attempt right down the Boulevard it's good and guys after the field goal now they have the [Music] [Music] lead so they're lining up to kick it off after that last Drive put a three spot on the board and now the defense will try to shut him down here he comes from inside his own five didn't find any crease in that kickoff coverage and he'll be stopped at the 17 Iowa State sending the offense back out that last Drive really productive David wound up with a touchdown they'll try to do it again yeah so I don't expect this offense to change too much Reese they had a great Drive they got the touchdown everything working I would expect them to keep pushing this ball down Feld and just imagine if they could put another touchdown on the board right here they could capture so much momentum in this game with backto back TVs here comes the offense on second down looking downfield it's Beck he makes the connection still running at the 40 he's loose ripped off a huge chunk play on that one as he gets the first down before he steps out of bounds well after that last play you can see how electrifying this guy is and how special he is after he makes the catch if I'm on offense I'm trying to find a lot of ways to get him touches in this [Applause] game they just dialed up one big play Let's see if they've got another one on First and 10 from the 35 he's going to pass got a in it's Jackson he's like a pinball with Attitude out there hammering ahead to the 30 well it's a nice job by the defender they're closing the Gap with the wide receiver they're going to complete the hitch pass but he's able to run right up on him get him to ground for a minimum and now on second down for this offense he's looking to throw catch in the middle it's Higgin and they reacted well to the completion but it was too late to keep them from getting the first down and because the receiver was able to drive back to the QB on that Cur route against man coverage he was able to create a little bit of separation between him and the defender and that was a big key in getting that first down and the Cyclones have it with a first and 10 they're in the red zone and they'll pass it he's got it into to the end zone touchdown cyclon defense has to be better on the back end they knew this offense was going to come out and they were going to challenge them they were going to try to push the ball vertically down the field they've now given up two touchdown passes in this game they've got to shore up their play in the back half [Music] [Applause] on to attempt the tryck is on for the extra point and the extra point is good and it's a four-point lead a very efficient five playay scoring drive and the Capper a 19 yd toss for the touchdown the kickoff team out there getting set set to kick it off from ins inside the 10 here he comes nice job executing all of the assignments as they put a stop to that return at the [Music] 22 they're going to throw it to start the drive unloads to the wide out he's got it he's run out of bounds but not before turning in a big pickup and moving the six for a first down Q be excellent location on that throw out route against man coverage you cannot miss if you throw that behind that might be a pick six so nice job by the quarterback with his accuracy he had the perfect play to open the drive and now they'll snap it again from the 38 fires to the right a beautifully placed ball to the outside and the tow drag for the big pickup and that really is a great play by the wide receiver for three reasons one he goes away the first down marker is so he gets his death two he's able to stay in bounds before securing the catch and three makes the grab just an awesome jump it'll be a first down from the 49 yd line looking to move it through the air finds his to spot in the middle bringing the heat he's right out of bounds but a big play on that one and it'll be a first down ma re you and I were talking about this before the game how is this defense going to be able to deal with all the speed they have offensively you saw them just rip off a big play and Jesse now their head's spinning just a little bit give up a big chunk play and and it's right back at him they're in the Red Zone first and 10 from the 20 trying to cap this drive with a pass he makes a grab and he will score touchdown y a score for the big fella here why are Titans so effective in the Red Zone well these aren't the guys that are going to burn by you and go for 70 most of the time but when you can use their big bodied frames threaten them to run the football be a Blocker in the running game and now you slip him in the secondary make that big [Applause] play lining up to tack one more onto that lead extra point and the extra point put him up by a field goal quick work on that scoring drive just four plays and they close the deal with a 20yd pass for Six so they got the touchdown and as they kick off really important for the defense to shut them down here from inside his own 10 let's see what he gets not a lot of space to be found good Hustle by the coverage team and they stop him at the 21 time dwindling away as they try to put points on the board right before the half good solid determined run there they'll Mark him down at the [Applause] 27 that's the end of the second quarter that means it's time to join Kevin in our halftime update gentlemen you've been calling a lively one so far from Salt Lake City and it's been said football is a game of inches and guess what based on the comparison between third down conversion rate today and the average yard per play how can you argue that I mean the low-lying fruit is to look at some of the explosive plays we've seen in panic but really this game is going to come down to which team is more efficient when they have the ball and how they play when it matters most and with that let's send it back to the fillows at Rice Echo Stadium [Applause] the Cyclones will try to kick this one deep to get things underway in the second half he'll bring it back from inside the 15 needed just a little more help to turn that into a big return they'll Mark him down at the 29 Utah has it back and the offense coming onto the field starting this third quarter on the ground and he knock him down after he picks up five out to the 34 it's going to be important this offensive line is able to get a little bit of push just got to give this guy an inch a little crease and he can make yards for [Applause] it halfway there on first down it's second and [Applause] five it's a draw stuffed almost in his track but strong enough to pick up one to the 35 at 35 third down coming up these are the types of plays where offenses impose their will third and short from the 45 now they'll run the draw they bring him down and he's going to lose a yard on that one on that last third down play if you're going to go draw the quarterback's got to do a better job selling pass I think he was just a little bit too quick getting the ball to the running back and now here we are fourth down the UTS will putt this one away this will be the second time they've had to kick it [Applause] away here's the return and they'll get him on the ground as the offense comes out to start the next Drive first play of this drive comes from the 27 off the play fake on first down to throw got him downfield and the explosiveness the big Gainer gets it to the 49 yd line I know we're a long way up here in the booth but guys y'all remember that ball you could throw that whistled that thing was whistling it had so many RPMs on it it'll be a first down from the 49 yd line from the gun running back on the move and he'll pick up the first down after a tough run there and that's all you want right you want that first down understand the situation understand I got to get North and South get a first down get a new set of [Applause] downs from inside the 40 at the 37 it's first down they're getting this guy lathered up nowhere to run on that when he loses four on the carry you know when you're running counter those offensive linemen Crashing Down you got to be able to pin those interior D lineman they couldn't get it done there they gave up too much penetration that led to the tackle for loss couldn't get him blocked on that last one now it's second and 14 it's a draw hard running there and they're able to make the tackle yeah I wasn't sure if the offense was going to be able to dig themselves out of this hole but on second and California they dial up the running Play Now setting up third and short Here Comes This Home crowd as the defense tries to get off the field on third down they'll try to power their way ahead he's got enough for the first down they'll spot him at the 24 yd line that is how it's done on third down and short and no doubt about it an easy hole to get through and clearly get the first down if you really want to simplify football the low man wins that time the offense got the better of the D easily picked that up and the Cyclones will line it up on First and 10 used the play fake now to throw fires toward the end zone touchdown Iowa State and with that when they jump on top here in the second half this game must be moving so slowly for this quarterback he sees everything two or three beats ahead way ahead I mean it's been been really really easy I better get some more hits on him I better do something to make him feel uncomfortable cuz right now it's just like oh you're running that yeah that's easy I mean he's he's already read your mail you better change the address do something [Applause] different P unit on the field and with the extra point they take a 217 lead so that scoring Drive took only six plays and they finished things up with a dart from 24 yds out about to kick it off after punching it in for the touchdown from inside his own 10 he'll try to help out their field position and the returner could find no daylight he goes down Utah offense returns ready to go back on the attack they hope to be able to cash in on this drive David after having to punt it last time yeah and I think this offense needs to start it with the first play you need to be successful and productive on that first play and it get you in less predictable situations no doubt too don't you just feel like there's a little bit more sense of urgency on this drive it just feels like they've got to be able to put some points up on the board here didn't get much on first down it's second and nine looking for space it's Bernard at the 35 he's loose finally run out of bounds but he has this offense rolling with a first down I'll tell you the defense is going to have to do a much better job containing these outside run plays they better be able to funnel the football back to the middle of the field because this guy with his speed can kill you like he did on that outside Run play there to the left movement here from the tight end they'll run it with the Jet Sweep and they drag him down but not before he picks up the first down another first down here's this offense with a fresh set of downs wide receiver now comes in motion touch pass on the Jet Sweep able to rounds three yards out of that one somehow it's second and seven and these little touch passes man they're just the easiest completions ever for quarterbacks Palmer I bet you would have loved being able to just Flip It Forward that counts as to your completion percentage which is good and then it's all run after the catch so pretty easy for a QB you wouldn't have been the only All-American in this booth David if I were allowed to P have Push passes when I was playing quarterback I'll tell you that it is so hard to defend it's so hard to seal that edge especially when this guy's Full Speed Ahead going around the one side at the 44 y line up third third down and they'll need to get the ball to the 38 yd line dropping back it's ryy throws to the wide out got his Man Down field they've got it just outside the Red Zone they'll move the chains it's at the 21 when you're a playmaker maker like this guy is your coaches are going to dial up plays intended for you especially on third down that's what you saw in that last play there was no question where the quarterback was going with that football all week long they decided on the biggest Downs of this game we're going to Target our best player and we're going to make sure that he gets looks it doesn't matter what the coverage is and you saw it right there on that play delay of game offense that is a completely avoidable penalty the quarterback just went into brain lock and lost track of the play clock fast motion from the offense he wants to throw it time running out and he goes down at the 34 and listen the quarterback drops back and he's going through his progressions we see Zone but just couldn't do anything about it this defensive line this pressure getting to the quarterback getting him on the ground really need to find a productive play this time on second and [Applause] long and you want to talk about his favorite receiver it might be everybody based on the number of guys getting touches in a chance to show off their hands in the passing game [Applause] when you're dealing with a deficit like this it's all about somebody stepping up to make a play and you might as well start here in the fourth quarter the short hands it's Parks they make the stop trying to pick up just a little bit at a time to get to that first down marker I love offenses and quarterbacks that are willing to take the easy stuff take those easy throws that are guaranteed to get positive yards yeah I'm going to take big shot sh down the field too but don't forget it's easier to pick up second and five third and five than it is when we start getting those long yardage situations the give to the tail back and sure tackling there to keep him from getting to the first down marker now a fourth down so here we are on fourth down in this field goal kicker is going to face all the pressure in the world right down the boulevard it's good and that's massive all the pressure on your defense now you've made the field goal you've got to get the ball back you need one more kick that's what you need and so the defense has to be ready to take the field right now play with intensity play with energy and get it back to the offense quick after putting up the field goal they're set to kick it [Applause] away and it'll come out to the 25 no attempt at a return Iowa state has the ball back the Cyclones ready to go on offense from the gun leaves it on the inside with the bat they bring him down and he's going to lose a yard on that one it's exactly the start you want when you're on offense in this situation four-minute offense I'm not worried about scoring I'm not worried about getting a bunch of first downs I need two I need two first downs and I'm going to let that clock TI and I walk out of here with the D didn't get much done on that first play of the drive it's second and 11 looking for a man it's Beck that pass is in lead and they're probably fortunate that it wasn't knock free for a fumble it's hard throwing in the pocket man you got bodies and 300 lb dudes falling all over the place they're trying to hit you that time the pressure got to them and it forced the incompletion decb rising as the crowd Gets behind this defense on third down from the gun wants to pass fires to the middle a strike downfield bulldozes his way through and they are pushing the ball down the field a big pickup on that one and the tackle is finally made really nice job working the crossing route there and I love the separation at the top of the route he put his foot in the ground he used his speed and that allowed him to make the catch and get a few more yards after the play they just changed the dynamic of this possession in a heartbeat and now it's first and 10 from inside the Red Zone gets it out fast and the catch it right into the end zone touchdown Cyclones and it's now the second time this wide receiver has scored another outstanding job with the route great job securing the catch [Music] [Applause] they'll try to add another to their lead and he splits the upright and pushes the lead to eight here in the fourth quick work on that scoring drive just four plays and the score comes on a 12yd touchdown pass kickoff team has the ball teed up and they're about ready to go on the run from inside his own five really disciplined job by the coverage unit to get down there and make the stop at the 19 Utah has it back and the offense coming onto the field looking for room it's Bernard he's knocked down in the back field he'll lose a couple and defense nowadays they don't look at stats of what is the yards per rush they look at how many negative plays they can create cuz why now you look at second down man it just became very predictable for this offense nice job creating the loss on first down after getting knocked back to open this drive it's second and 12 he showed it all there a little elusiveness a little power and he's got the first down you know as a defense you can have the right call and the right guy in the right spot but that guy's just too good and how about the running back on that play just making it happen breaking off the huge [Applause] game lining up from the 34 on first down he'll do it himself a run up the middle is stuck for no game the offense thought they had a good look to run that play into with the QB but there's just an example of a Defender winning his one-on-one battle and making a tremendous play great effort by that guy second down coming [Applause] up they'll run it from the gun and they try the middle of this Stout defense and they rise to the challenge great team defense on that one play every body doing their job people winning their one-on ons D linemen staying in their gaps linebackers and DBS filling you just can't do it better now facing a third and long to the air it's rising throwing right and that's incomplete a Defender all over him knocked the ball to the ground fourth down coming up and now such a tough situation late in this game you're trailing but now it's fourth in Long like it's one thing if it's Fourth and short this makes it even more difficult you got to have something dialed up you feel really great about fourth down and the punt team sends it the other way P it on the return pretty solid coverage there and they'll stop him at the 26 Iowa State sending the offense back out and now that cushion is a little bit smaller Jesse and any mistake would get magnified yeah a little bit of pressure now on this offense too David I think they got to go back to their Playmakers and get these guys going in the game no doubt find those plays those plays you know you can run him in your sleep you make sure you execute build this lead a little bit bigger put this thing away in the fourth quar clock continues to run and they'll be happy to wind it all the way down before they snap it looking to the big tight end and it'll be in complete this defense is physical and pass deep and the big tight end a lot of times that's a bigger Strike Zone a bigger dude and you could tell they put the hit on him and that ball came out and it came to the turf nice job playing physical by this defense better find the earplugs here comes the noise backing this defense on third down working that left side and they finally get him down but not before he's got him set up for business at the 49 yd line and they did everything right in this 4minute type situation trying to to bleed the clock first you get the completion then you get the first down and you stay in bounds you could not execute that play any better the Cyclones have it with a first and 10 they'll try to keep this clock moving on the ground this offense thinks that they have enough left in the tank here to run the football and run all the time off the clock they got the lead late didn't get the first down on that last one but it's not going to surprise anybody if they turn around and hand it off again here didn't get much on first down it's second and nine missed his receiver there it didn't complete in football you hear the ter quick but don't hurt and you could tell when you run these rpos the QBs want to make that decision quick and he I think he hurried it a little bit too much got the ball out quick but obviously was inaccurate with his pass it's third down now they ought to be able to get off one more play before the two-minute warning back to pass it's Beck pocket starts to collapse couldn't find a man and just had to throw it away to avoid a negative play and how loud is it in this building this is crazy this these fans are going absolutely nuts and I used to love when the fans got involved and I'm on defense because it messes with the snap count it messes with the communication and it can really rattle an offense and the Cyclones will line up to pun it away this will be the second time they've had to kick it away we reached the two-minute warning and the defense needs to come up with a stop to close this thing out comes out throwing on first down grabbed in the middle it's Park good call good execution as they move the chains and they have a first down at the 38 and you've created some great momentum getting the stop forcing the punt now getting it back to your your offense your offense starting to get in a Groove late in the game you need some big plays you just wonder how much Panic there is right now in the defensive side of the football too because of what you just said David they can feel and sense the momentum leaving them right now with the lead so someone defensively better step up here soon and make a play the offense gets a quick timeout at this point every second is precious trying to find his man on first down got a man in the middle they've got it inside the 30 they'll mark it at the 28 it's first down well this offense knew coming into this game they wanted to try to attack the middle of the field in the passing game and they're able to execute the end route there everybody has to be set they have to get it off he'll come out throwing on first down with the catch it's Parks got some room enter to the goal line he is right out of bounds after the big game and they are in business first and goal and as a defense how scary is it having to defend this guy he's one of the fastest players in America and you saw it on that last play it's not necessarily throwing him the ball over your head they just get it to him quickly the hard part now is running and tackling that guy not easy to do barges ahead and he takes it in for the score touchdown Utah awesome execution nice job going down the field scoring the touchdown but only half of the work is done under two minutes got to go for the two-point conversion here pick your Play Let's Get Ready To Roll after the score they need this two-point conversion to tie slams ahead he barges his way into the endzone for the two and we are locked up here in the [Applause] fourth here comes the kickoff as we are all tied up in the fourth quarter he'll bring it back from inside his SP he was looking for more Running Room but none to be found as he stopped at the 23 Iowa state has the ball back the Cyclones ready to go on offense to the air it's Beck good timing on the quick out and he'll make his way out of bounds after the solid pick up there's just so much Chemistry Between this quarterback and his receiver and you saw it right now there down the perimeter trying to work the boundary just put it somewhere near him he'll catch it he'll get a foot down and help out his offense and here comes the offense on second down he's looking to throw tight end finds a soft spot time out on the field and we've got a Dandy all tied up late in the four well offensively they knew they were going to have some matchups they could take advantage of in this one and all of a sudden this quarterback has now over 300 yd passing in the game defensively David he has got them on their heels and he's been showing you a little bit of everything he can throw it all over the field to all different receivers to his tight ends to his running backs really has the ability to spread it around and now over 300 yard still some time left and he can put up even bigger numbers and heck go chase some awards man get some postseason Awards get an allamerican just put up a day quick timeout by the defense there trying to make sure everyone has the same call man if I'm a defense I got to find a way to get some more pressure on the quarterback or disrupt their timing and their Rhythm I can't give them these big chunk plays through the air I got to be maybe a little bit more aggressive or do something a little bit different he's dropped behind the line of scrimmage that'll be a loss of three the defense going to stop the clock with the timeout they want to make sure they have everybody on the same page operating in the Red Zone here on second down from the shotgun now here's an inside GI he's drop behind the line of scrimmage that'll be a loss of three you know a field goal can tie the game right now you have to at least give yourself a chance to do that so I don't mind maybe taking some shots but every time you drop back you're risking taking a sack you've got to dial up plays right now I think that are high percentage throws you got to run the football to at least give yourself an opportunity to push this game into OT and he's not going to make it the defense denying him the first down timeout is called with just two seconds left to go time I will so on fourth down here comes the field goal kicker in a huge spot nerves of Steel right down the Boulevard on the game winning Chip Shot I 31 Utah [Applause] [Music] [Applause] 28 tonight final score Iowa State 31 Utah 28 [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
