Yeah, I think we need this for bowl game, I think we could find a way without it, but this definitely one that is winnable one.... that seems like the most logical path to 6 wins.....I feel like this one is needed to go to a bowl, but I feel a noticeable difference from a Rhoads-led team. In the past, tough losses seemed to lead to more losses. Negative momentum carried from game to game. Despite losing to Iowa in a game we should have won, I feel like this team treated it as one game and not a "here we go again" moment.
This doesn't feel like the normal fluff hype that I've grown accustomed to. I think we beat Texas by 8-10 pts.
Maybe it is the history of nut kicks, but I just have a terrible feeling about this game.
2013 is a bad example because ISU should've won isu didn't lose the game due to coming up short. Texas fumbled the ball at the end of the game but somehow the refs decided the player was down instead due to forward progress. Which he clearly wasn't.The circumstances of this game feel similar to 2011 but I think the outcome will be more similar to 2013:
We compete hard and make some enormous plays to carry a late, one-possession lead into the final minute. But we can't pick up a first down or convert at the goal line when we really need it, and Texas steals one away from us.
I've gone back and forth on this one over the past week. I'm currently in the 'feeling good about it' camp. Would be a huge momentum builder for the rest of the season if they can continue the strong play, and CLOSE IT OUT at the end.
