That 5 win one is the dumb stat. Hard to win 5 games when you don’t play that many in a season or play 7 or less but hey it fit a narrative.
BTW, Iowa has 81 with 5 or less.

Troy Davis, Ed Bock, and Mike Busch. Not going to lie I dont know who the second 2 are.
It is just funny because a fan base with this history runs so much smack on this site it is crazy. Then on the flip side ISU fans act like Iowa has no right to talk about basketball because they have had more success 3-8 years ago.
Just curious, but is CFB Kings an independent source (with no known rivalry bias against the clones)? I mean, no doubt about those stats accurately illustrating Iowa State's position in the College Football World, but what's the potential motivation behind that tweet? They just thought it was unbelievable or funny how bad Iowa State is (historically) in football? It just seems so random...
Yeah, sure. A 2nd round talent (at worst) wouldn't start at Nebraska, PSU, Michigan, Wisconsin or Indiana. F'in ridiculous. Minnesota has an argument. But PSU would be in playoff contention with a good QB.
Just curious? Everyone here knows ISU's history, not that it means anything for the future. I've seen enough of their tweets to know that they're not unbiased.
Nebraska passed on a Heisman trophy winner, of course they would pass on Purdy.
I'm actually in agreement with that. Is Purdy better than Martinez? Yes. Would Frost pick Martinez over Purdy? 99% yes.
Life is not where you've been, but where you're going. No one in their right mind can deny an upward trend is occurring. We're excited to see that continue.
Going from 8 wins to 7 is an upward trend? Is it also an upward trend to go from winning a Bowl game to losing 2 in a row?
I love when those things get brought up lol. We get it. We were awful. That's why we're excited to be fans of a team that doesn't outright suck.
Isu’s history is what it is. The real question is if CMC is the greatest coach in isu history why hasn’t he changed this history? He still hasn’t won more than 8 games. Still hasn’t won or played for a conference title, still hasn’t played in a major Bowl game, still hasn’t had a player win a national award, still hasn’t out recruited his in-state rival, still hasn’t had a first team Al-American or had a first round draft pick.
An upward trend from where we've been, not from one individual season to the next. You and a few other Iowa fans absolutely love picking out spans of individual years to try and build arguments don't you? If Iowa wins 8 games next year is their program on a downward trend? No
