To make it even better not even a 1A school just an A schoolShout out to Ryland Barnes, how often has ISU had a walk on scout team guy start and get 9 tackles. Red shirt freshman from an Iowa 1A program starting on the road with a 6-0 record on the line FROM THE SCOUT TEAM!!
Kansas sucked back then too..no wonder they nailed a couple peach baskets on a wall.
Why didn’t you get a hotel room?I was at the game today and it was another example of how we just take care of business. This team isn’t flashy or fancy, but we are tough as nails and take care of business. Campbell and the staff did everything right tonight. Remember our defense is so banged up but they were still near perfect. We are now 6-0 and I’m pitching a tent.
Big12 has as big an argument to get 3 as the SEC and Big10 do for 4. Some of the one loss SEC teams don't look good. Kstate would be a good game against any of them. Big 10 has Oregon, Ohio State, and Penn State. Who's the 4th? Indiana? Again, the third best Big12 team would give them trouble.Why not 3?
We'll never catch up if we only get 1 or 2 teams in every year.
We need this WV game. Gotta have it.
Brock, I mean Rocco, will be ready. I say we WIN!
The Big 12 isn't getting three teams in, the system was not designed for Big 12, ACC and lower to get any more than 2 teams. I hate saying that but it is the truth.Big12 has as big an argument to get 3 as the SEC and Big10 do for 4. Some of the one loss SEC teams don't look good.

Also said something about Oregon being #1 after beating OSU. How does Texas drop after winning big over ranked rival.Like I said waaaayyyy back at the beginning of this thread-Brando and Gardner are not good. In fact I would like to update that to they are terrible. Please don’t let us have them next week

ISU just needs to keep taking care of business and there will be a spot for them. The remaining schedule definitely gives ISU an incredible opportunity.

Honestly concerned the only KU fans there will be parents of the playersESPN not factoring in the Kansas City home field advantage for ISU
Seriously, at this point there will be more ISU fans there than KU fans.
Not a poll prediction but disagree with the highlighted. Blowing out a bad Stanford team at home should not be considered better than handily beating a good West Virginia team on the road at night. They were also like 24 point favorites at home.Curious how it will go.
Not many losses in the top 10 this week. Ohio State but they lost to #3 so they'll stay in the top 10.
And notre dame, who tied us for #11 last week, had a more dominant win.
Ole Miss will drop, but we could easily end up sitting at 11th still tomorrow with Notre dame at #10
Kid just looks like a football player.

I went to bed last evening as content as I've ever been after an ISU football game. A night game in Morgantown has the possibility of going awry, but I wasn't concerned leading up to kickoff and I wasn't particularly worried after their opening drive resulted in 7 points. The word which keeps coming to mind is "methodical" - the Cyclones simply imposed their will on WVU. Starting OL goes down early - no problem. Scout team Freshman LB on the field - go make plays! Methodical - grind them down with Carson Hansen then take a shot with our plethora of capable downfield receivers. I even agree with those who suggest we haven't played our best ball yet. Next up - UCF - let's go State!
My inner child is in shambles after reading this…Maybe parents with just one kid playing football. Cause if there’s an option to go watch your other child, they’ll be doing that.
