Liberty Bowl postgame thread

There's a huge difference between people coming at Dabo and people wanting us to look like we practice for games.
How much money does Dabo and his football boys make? This ain't division 3.
Seriously, why is it worth more than this? Serious question - if Rocco tore his ACL going for the game winning TD in this game and couldn’t start the year next season, would you think it was worth it? Or if your kid got a concussion in this game? I get that the game has to feel real enough to be entertaining…but it’s hard to convince me this means much…
Game sucked, slow start to both halves, had fun tailgating, now at Gus's Chicken for dinner. Like Memphis but let's not play the home team again please.
Ironically, at a time when bowl game mean less than ever to fans, they mean more than ever for the huge Portal season that coincides with it. We’re already struggling to pull in guys that are picking between North Dakota and us. Selling them on coming to Ames after showings like that get a lot more difficult.
Take the 30,000 foot view and I think you’ll see there isn’t. Same types of people, same views…rooting for different colored jerseys.
Can’t wait for another summer of hearing about the improved offensive line, only to then be our worst unit again. 0 rushing yards? My god
Yet for the foreseeable future it seems ISU fans will all be asked over and over to give more and more to those same people they don't know to play said game.
Stop. Running. Inside. Zone. Immediately. After. A. Big. Play.
Maybe the NCAA should just cancel bowl games and only have a 12 team tournament moving forward?
Seems that nobody cares, half the good players don't play.
or maybe they just have a 12 team playoff and then the rest of the teams are free to schedule a flag football game with another school that didn't make the playoffs at the destination of their choice allowing fans to come and cheer them on for a couple days.
all joking aside, if nobody cares and good players opt out, i really question the need for the games.
What do people expect from this program going forward? My expectations are 7+ wins each season with a 9+ win season every 4 or 5 years. This season’s team won 7 games while losing their starting QB, RB, TE, and OL right before the season started. The team showed growth during the year. They will only get bigger, faster, stronger for next year as the majority of the snap counts came from underclassmen.
I enjoyed watching this team. And I think they will be exciting to watch for the next couple years.

In 2024, we play two G5 schools at home as part of our non-conference schedule -- North Dakota (1st game) and Arkansas State (3rd game). Should ISU fans be worried about those games?
