I think a lot of us are in that boat. I know I am. Part of it is because we’re such passionate fans that it hurts so much. But now it’s much worse because we have the expectations
I’m in the same boat. This loss stings so badly. Expectations were so high and we’ve failed. I went into this season thinking we were capable of being a playoff team. Clearly we are not.
Matt Campbell needs an intervention. Let's all sit down with him and tell him we love him but he needs a special teams coach.
Been there... my kids really help keep me grounded
Go hunting or fishing. Just as much disappointment but generally all your fault. 
The dog has gone into hiding...hell, I can't even see the cats...this team is so damn close to being a great football team. But, until the special teams fiasco gets fixed, expect more of the same. The difference in punting games between the 2 teams was as stark as it was against Iowa and again, was the difference in field position. Welp, plenty of time tonight to drink.
I feel bad for everyone who came back to win a championship who could be earning money in the NFL... I'm glad that they came back but the season is already a complete failure relative to expectations. Even if we win out it will be a disappointment that we pissed bigger things down our leg.
Life on a weekend is still great after something like this. Focus on the positives we have
I don’t really get why I’m like this but Iowa State losing effectively ruins my day. I hardly ever played football and I don’t even go to college at Iowa State (although definitely would have if I didn’t have the opportunity to play a sport), but going to games since I was born means that I take Cyclone football way too seriously. I mean this is the first time Iowa State has really had football success in my lifetime. I shouldn’t be mad considering this is the golden era but here we are. I’m also pretty sure i make myself look like an idiot during games

The kick was good in Shreveport.
Hey I am sweating out a $100 ML bet on NCST, kid missed the winning kick in regulation. And now we are back and forth in O.T. So my day could get worse
When you have high expectations, it sucks when they are not achieved, but still think it is better than the alternative of not having any expectations.
Just stay away from social media, where you get a bunch of idiots who try to define things for you.

Get old....within an hour, you forget what you watched.
Delusional is what 80% of the board is.
I'm to the acceptance stage. Manning sucks, ST is laughable and the D is top notch. I just hope that at the end of this Breece Hall can position himself decent in the draft. He did well today.
yep age helps quite a bit, I still love the W's but I've seen enough heart breaking losses in all ISU sports over time I bounce back a lot quicker than when I was young.
