  1. He had an open lane to run and hesitated.
  2. finally, a decent pass for TD
  3. That's the reason. Pulls up for no reason.
  4. what's up inside runs? Use your speed and QB runs to stretch the outside
  5. Yeah, OU will go with read options and other wrinkles for the backup to the backup that we'll be unprepared for. Based on history, probably a 5'6" midget will also be involved.
  6. Cal is 2-0 and ND is 0-2. Very funny. Go Cal.
  7. My 2 cents. I lived in Ames for two years (MS) and my impressions from early 1990s. - People were very polite. Even the newscasters were very diffident when hoping for a Cyclones win the coming Saturday. Quite a flip when I moved to Austin (PhD), though the results during early/mid 1990s in Austin were not much better. - As a foreign student, I volunteered to speak at various schools across central Iowa about different cultures, along with other foreign students. The community hosted us in their homes (one student per family), and it was a blast. The teachers told us that our visit was the talk of the town (population 500) for the whole week, and for most of the kids, we were the first non-whites they had seen in their lives. They showed us their weekly paper that was just about our visit and what they were planning. They took us to visit farms. When they saw my job drop at the size of the farm (>1000 acres) and the equipment, in their typical mid-western modesty (I think), they said that this is one of the successful farms and other farmers are not doing as well. At one time, my host, who was a pastor, had to go out because of a road accident and it was his turn to be a volunteer firefighter. After dinner they arranged for community activities. Once I remember we went tobogganing in the night at a nearby hill. They had hot chocolate, smores, etc. - The cold was biting. I remember -40F with wind blowing snow horizontally and me trying to figure out where the sidewalk is. Summers were great. Biked everywhere. - Lastly about ISU. Very pretty campus with great people. ISU engineering is very good and it should be ranked higher, imo.
  8. you and me both Wordle 454 X/6* ⬛⬛🟨🟨🟨 ⬛🟨🟨🟨⬛ 🟩🟩⬛🟩🟩 🟩🟩⬛🟩🟩 🟩🟩⬛🟩🟩 🟩🟩⬛🟩🟩
  9. App State didn't even sneak up on aggy. They gave notice last week at UNC and still aggy falls flat. Can aggy withdraw post-game? This is clearly the peak covid symptom.
  10. Weren't there a couple of other recurring threads; one of them was something about doomed (anti-jinx) and another one saying "they suck, we should win easily"?
  11. why flag on that play?
  12. no camera from the other (ref) side?
  13. now, Purdue can throw to their heart's content.
  14. Purdue has been playing tight defense. don't go prevent now.
  15. a TD play was underthrown
  16. not enough to overturn, i think
  17. did anyone get 4 yellows, tried them again in different positions and they remained yellow? Wordle 427 3/6* ⬛🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟨🟨🟨🟨⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  18. whew, this was a hard one Wordle 411 5/6* ⬛⬛⬛🟨🟩 ⬛🟨⬛⬛🟩 🟩⬛⬛⬛🟩 🟩⬛⬛🟨🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  19. More like a small town/rural stereotype. Most of us in urban areas see highways, strip malls, SUVs/trucks, suburban sprawl, fast food, etc.
  20. good word Wordle 409 4/6* ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ 🟩🟨🟨⬛⬛ 🟩🟩🟨⬛⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  21. Lucky guess too! Wordle 407 2/6* ⬛⬛🟩🟨⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  22. All the other engineering buildings looked great compared to the Woolrich building where Aerospace Eng was when I was there in mid-90s. Looks like Aero has moved to another building.
  23. Yeah, the panel gaps have become a meme now. The people still seem to flock to Tesla though since their 4-year-old cars are selling for the same price as new ones. Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, etc. have their own reliability issues; Tesla's seem to be more cosmetic.
  24. True to silicon valley roots, I see that you are a fan of binary numbers. Stanford and Cal are all about Olympic sports, and of course academics, research and the startups. Nobody will miss football.
  25. Tesla virtual power plant Emergency Load Reduction Pilot | Tesla Support Get paid $2/kWh during emergency events. There are about 50,000 powerwalls with about 500MWh to draw power from. With vehicle-to-load options from others such as Ford, there is a quite a bit of potential to share the energy during emergencies or peak power situations.
