How does this end?

I don't like the idea of playing Texas, in Texas on the LHN. Not because I think this team isn't up to the challenge. I just feel like all these factors allow the referees to decide who wins this game if it's a close one. Everyone on the planet believes, except ISU fans, that Texas winning this game is the best thing for the Big 12. Looking at what the refs did to us last year in Manhattan has me worried as **** about how they will call this game.
Yes we beat Texa$.
No, we don't make the title game. OU goes down at WVU.
Yes, we win out and make a NY6 bowl.
Yes, we extend CMC again.
If your first question is answered as a yes, there a good chance the rest will be answered yes, too.
Not sure how we don't make the Big 12 championship game, but make a NY6 bowl?
finish 9-3 and finish with CFP ranking 0f #12
Pretty much my thoughts as well. But, I'd argue that showing Iowa State is finally good is in the best interest of the conference going forward. The conference needs football to have the same perception it receives in basketball, that it isn't filled with a lot of that B1G or SEC fluff. Parity is the answer to prosperity.
WE BEAT BAMA THATS HOW THIS ENDS BOOK IT
The committee is going to pull a rabbit out of its hat this year.

Bingo. We miss the B12 title game through tie breakers, but we beat UT, KSU, and IW to finish 9-3 and ranked in the top 12 which gets us to a NY6.
(of the big 12)
For the first time ever there isn't a doubt in my mind they are good enough to win the conference, but who knows what kind lucky/unlucky bounces we'll get. I'm just going to enjoy the last 3-4 games and try to not to let expectations get in the way.

I only see 19 words in this picture.
Those who think we finish in the top 12... not gonna happen. Everyone ahead of us is either:
a) far enough ahead with 1 or 0 losses that 1 loss won't drop them below us
or
b) only cupcakes left so they won't lose again anyway

Lately the big 12 refs have been playing fair with us.
I don't know how the rest of the season goes, but I know Saturday night ends with Tom Herman in tears and a hefty fine for ISU coming from the Big 12 because you guys ruined everything goddammit!
