Find a Big 12 win

[SDClone]

I think a lot of people need to realize the youth on this team, and this is the year they are going to play a lot of really close games and likely not win many of them. But next year with experience I fully expect to flip most, if not all of these games. You watching what a program not named Alabama, Ohio State, etc. go through when they have a senior-laden class leave.

That’s not an excuse for the Oline as they are supposed to be sooo “experienced”. KU has an average defense and look at the problems they caused.

Best coach Iowa State has ever seen is the lowest bar to clear. We’re a terrible team this year. Campbell cannot build a long term, consistent program.

Drink some water. Get some sleep. Come to Ames next week and yell like crazy in the stands with me!

I’m not buying it.

Not advocating for firing him or anything I’m just saying that “best coach in ISU history” is a god damn awful metric and doesn’t mean ****. We are a doormat of a program.

Yeah… yelling next week for what? For Kansas State to beat us down by 20+?

Ok let's not be fricking stupid people. They will win multiple games. Calling it. There isn't a single team we can't compete with/beat. We shall see about Oklahoma State I guess. But who feels worse? Us or OU? The Sooners look like an absolute dumpster fire and Texas Tech is absolutely winnable. Hell this team wouldn't shock me one bit to turn around and beat Kansas State.

Problem is we had tons of talent and experience last year and lost all the close games except 1.

 

[IASTATE07]

I think we'll go 3-6 in conference.

 

[jctisu]

You’re joking if you think we have a shot against a disciplined K State or TTU team. We are less talented and less disciplined than EVERY TEAM IN THE BIG 12!

Guess we will find out won’t we?

**** happens. The season before that we won the Fiesta Bowl and were an eyelash away from winning the Big 12. But let’s not forget that or anything. Last years team clearly wilted under the expectations.

I'm looking forward to seeing growth throughout the year and seeing the best versions of ourselves.

Didn’t realize my statement was a blanket one for EVERY position. Got it. There is a lot of inexperience everywhere and the biggest one is at QB. Guy has the talent but is still going to have to take his licks and learn. The o-line has been and will continue to be crap because our coaching there is not P5 level IMO. Why do you think the defense just keeps plugging in new guys every year and off they go? Heacock can actually coach so experience starts to matter.

 

[Rabbuk]

I think it's more likely we lose all the big 12 games remaining than it is we end up bowl eligible

 

[OscarBerkshire]

Are we the worst team in the Big 12 right now? Yeah, I think we are.

But we’ve got seven games left to see how this team can grow. We haven’t been in this spot since 2019. I’m curious to see how we can look on offense with Remsberg, Norton, and Brock back.

I’ll call it. Iowa State finishes 7-5. Wins over Kansas State, Oklahoma, West Virginia, and Texas Tech the rest of the way.

We have not grown at all in 5 games. What makes you think we will grow thoughout next 7?

 

[RING4CY]

Based on how they've played the past two games, Oklahoma looks very beatable. Especially with that game being at home.

Everything will be fine once they start wearing Campbell’s favorite black uniforms

We find 3. Go 6-6. Make a ****** bowl. Win against another mediocre team who doesn’t want to be there.

Honestly, that would be best case scenario and I would be 100% in.

 

[atlantacyclone]

Lol their D line, cornerbacks, receivers, are way better than KU. Additionally, they have an elite QB. That’s an L all day.

I don’t see a win with our running and kicking game. Dekkers makes too many mistakes. Our defense is fantastic … but sadly they aren’t miracle workers …

 

[HouClone]

I can go for that. Memphis, Liberty Bowl.

 

[dirtyninety]

We might beat Houston when they come in conference.
