*** Official Kansas State vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[Skyh13]

I don’t think I’ll be making any time to watch any more games. The offense is beyond a joke.

Manning cannot be calling plays next week. 20 total points against KU and KSU

We'll get 0 against Texas next week, just like OU. Maybe a humiliating loss like that will get us some change.

 

[awd4cy]

I'm ticked too but Campbell could lose out the next few seasons. be fired and he will still go down as the best coach in ISU history. Who else has a first place conference finish, Fiesta Bowl win. and won the conference games he has? I'll hang up and listen.

Our fiesta bowl season was a farce. Strange unusual year with completely unnormal circumstances. We played 4-3 Oregon in it. We played big 12 teams who could barely field a team because of covid.

 

[HoustonClone]

Too bad. Deckers just looks lost out there at times. Play calling abysmal, offensive line no where to be found as usual. Count me not surprised I guess..... I know they're trying.. Go Cyclones.

Dekkers has regressed. We are tentative and scared on offense and it starts with him and Coach Manning.

 

[sunset]

3-3 wouldn’t be the end of the world in a rebuild year but we’ve given away the last two. It seems as though our coaching staff has reached untouchable status in our athletic department. No accountability. Hopefully he can turn it around because this is beginning to look a bit too much like Paul Rhoads football.

Texas isn't running up the score on that defense

They are going to have lots of possessions on short fields.

Yup, just have to look at Indiana that year. A high-win season during COVID and... well, sucking since then.

 

[cyatheart]

Seriously though, I have to stop taking these games so seriously. I don’t know if I can even watch next week. Texas might hang 100 on us.

Why would they hang 100? This defense plays their asses off, they ALWAYS answer the bell, they are expertly coached.

 

[ZuriCyclone]

I realize this is short sided and dramatic, but we ******* suck

If you can't score from the 50 yard lone , with a one point game on the line , multiple times. You need to fire the offensive staff at the end of the season. They can't evaluate talent, develop it or coach it.

 

[Bigman38]

Just saying, he had chances to make plays.

That's the scary part to me, KSU was a step ahead of Manning at every turn tonight. But even when it did work they couldn't execute it anyways.

 

[CRcyclone6]

Tough game to watch. Cyclone D is stellar again and even had good special teams play. But that offense is so tough to watch. I get the Dekkers is a young QB and still has things to learn, but it's unfathomable that we can't run the ball better with our experienced OL and stable of talented running backs.

We've had an experienced oline for how many years now? They are no good. Amazing what Montgomery and Hall could do even.

 

[Kdog68]

I’m going to switch over to the Iowa game, at least watching them lose will make me feel a little better.

I think ISU still beats those teams that season but not nearly as dominant and it would not be remembered as some other worldly team.

And the same things that cost them the Big 12 title game are still alive and well.

 

[atlantacyclone]

I remember when I was excited to see what our offense could do. Now when we have the ball I feel like anything positive is lucky ...

 

[CYEATHAWK]

Iowa would have found SOMETHING to at least get them down into the red zone for a chance there in the fourth quarter.

I don't know. Right now they are in a 9-6 barn burner with Illinois with about 2 minutes left in the game.

 

[Clonefan32]

Alright fellas 49-0 is the number to stay under next week.

 

[cyatheart]

Manning has to make what…750K per year now?

Didn't even threaten to score

 

[joefrog]

CMC is content to lose. As long as it’s close. He’s milking the salary at an easy job. Just like half of us are at our jobs.

That's where it appears we are. Been warning signs for years.

Execute, scheme, and always put up as many points as possible?

Or simply manage the game and hope for no mistakes?

Which would you prefer your team did?

Well, we have a lesser version of KF now in Ames.

This sucks, and isn't entertaining at all.

Offense just doesn't care, they know they are not being put in a positive position.

 

[madguy30]

I don't know. Right now they are in a 9-6 barn burner with Illinois with about 2 minutes left in the game.

And I'll be surprised if they don't get down to the 30.

They're also terrible but they tend to just find a way in these situations.
