A head game that should have never happened

My theory on the whole "The Football Team Refused To Yield" scene pulled by UNLV is this:

UNLV brought in a whole mess of JUCOs this year to improve their athleticism. They have only been together as a team maybe 6 weeks. Coach Sanford- while rightfully miffed at not being told the review of the final play had found nothing- also used the scene to wisely create a moment to bond the team with. It was a nice "Us Against The World" opportunity.

But it never should have come to that.

The ISU offense, an offense called 'explosive' and "among the Big 12's Best" in the preseason- has scored 39 points in regulation in two games. The defense- giving up 33 in the same span- is kicking butt comparatively, as they entered the season as the glaring weak spot.

At some point, Skladany is going to look across the staff table at Cotton and say- "I'm pulling my share- what about you?" And he will be right.

If Cotton's boys dump 30+ on SUI, all is forgiven. If Blythe goes a&m deja vu in Kinnick, all will probably be well with the world. Until then, who should really get credit for ISU's 2-0 start?
