Bye week blues
Nothing like a bye week. You can always come up with more questions about a team but you won't find any answers.
Of course, there seems to be questions about the Cyclones after the Army struggle. Did Iowa State just not be all that it could be, or did it perform above its abilities against the hated cross-state Hawkeyes? Sure makes next Saturday's game look about even...and potentially another ugleefest.
What did we did before the Internet? We couldn't have cool screen names like Mr. Pushups. As a sports writer, I'd have to use Mr. Buffet Line. As for Mr. Pushups' question, I don't think there's any consideration of a QB change from Callahan right now. Not sure there should be. We haven't seen anything from the backups, and he's seen plenty in practice. I guess Husker Nation has to hope Taylor and the offense gets going (hint, sticking to the run game could help a bit the next two games) because otherwise 0-2 in the Big 12 after a pair of home games is feasible. Yikes!
