Haven't seen an ass kicking like this since 2016.

Next year will be really interesting.

Heck, the next week or two might be really interesting.

No margins in this game … we just are terrible ..

 

[cyclone1209]

And that whole 'scoring' thing.

Also - how many drives have we started ten plus yards behind where we should b/c Noel doesn't fair catch? He's a field position liabilty.

There's only one team in the Big XII that has out gained its opponents by over 1,000 yards, and they're in dead last place. That's unbelievable.

Is that yards of penalties?

How do you pound a team 48-14 one year and then the next you get down 41-7 in the 3rd Q? That is a 68 pt swing. Wow.

 

[ISUKyro]

I'm starting to worry about being able to pull this off

 

[CYedUp]

I'm just numb at this point. No reaction at all to them scoring

My dad who has been housing beers and bbqing today "they better not wait too much longer to catch up"

Hello darkness my old friend,
I’ve come to speak with you again,
Down the stairs in the cold basement,
Where Kansas lives and we pay the rent,
And Campbell… gave us hope… that was false,
Always false,
In the sound…
Of silence.

The Hope was John Heacock , not CMC.

I wonder who will be the keynote speaker at the team post season banquet? The atmosphere will be surreal.

 

[atlantacyclone]

Basketball…

Guarantee there’s a high school kicker in the DFW area who would make those kicks.

I saw a high-school kicker in the Iowa 4A championship game who was driving 45-yarders right down the middle with a good 10 yards to spare in warm ups.

He kicks for the same high school Drake Nettles came from.

I’m starting to think it’s not the talent of the high schoolers that are brought in, but something that happens to them once they’re in this program.

IF CMC was not stubborn, the entire offense would be fired tomorrow. But it will be the same staff next year.

Yards don’t matter. It’s all about points per play or yards per play.

Tell Campbell that

I love how we both do that and yet are overly aggressive on returning kickoffs instead of just taking the free yards.

 

[FerShizzle]

You're joking but punts are only marginally better than turning it over.

I’m not joking. Kicking is the worst. Especially when you are bad a kicking, which we are.

 

[CRcyclone6]

Well, time to get X some garbage catches and yards of we can.

 

[madguy30]

This reads like you think both teams are the same as last year and in the same mindset.

 

[dafarmer]

It is amazing what a pass over the middle down field does. Not in our playbook.

 

[cyclonez7]

Can we hire Mevis as our special teams coach?
