The guy who’s had five surgeries on his eyes, and is due for two more shortly, begs to differ.

Rewatching the game tonight. I didn’t realize the snap on the two point conversion went directly to Gabe Burkle. And the snap was similar to what you see on a play ground. It didn’t go between the center’s legs, instead it was more of a pitch to the side. Not sure I have seen that before in a game.
EXACTLY. We should all have enough confidence in this team and these coaches and this program to not lose our **** when some things go rough for us. But we should also not expect things to go bad.
I say it all the time, but we are in rarefied air. I don't want to look back and realize that I didn't enjoy and appreciate it. The past 9 years and especially the past 2.5 have brought me a LOT of joy and I would hate to have missed it because I was hedging my bets or losing my **** for a loss.
I noticed that too. Is that a legal snap? Seems like a good way to keep the defense guessing.
Iowa State will never have the most resources to compete at the highest level across a broad selection of sports. The entire edifice of college athletics is teetering. While ISU fans do fear the return of our past, a lot of us are more worried about the future. Life is good for ISU fans these days but we don't know how hard it will be to keep it going. I'm just trying to enjoy the ride.
The more Brock Purdys, Jaylen Noels, Jayden Higgins, Will McDonalds that have success in the NFL and speak extraordinarily highly of our program the easier it will become especially when the quick payday doesn’t lead to guaranteed success at the next level
We have never in our history had more guys making big impacts in the NFL at once as we do now. Almost all of this has come in current college football landscape.
Yes it is a legal snap. We used to run this play once and awhile in high school.
Just had to go backwards and be a fluid motion

I didn’t see any of that, and now I’m angry that I missed it. I hate dirty play.
I know that Sowell didn’t get a ton of targets until Saturday, but the plays he made tell me he’s WR1. We’ve seen Eskildsen and Overby go deep, but we haven’t seen them do much else or make contested catches. That was a Higgins type game from Sowell. He needs to show he can be consistent, but the talent is there.
Sowell caught a few important balls late in the Iowa game too. He's been building momentum for a while. I think he's the real deal. Him and Townsend. The others are nice young players who have the chance to become just as good or better.
You need to review the kstate game. Both Eskildsen and Overby made highly contested catches for their TDs. I will admit outside of those, they haven't shown as much.
It's gotta be super difficult at this point to be a pass catcher on this team. There's too many hands that deserve the ball.
I suspect what we are seeing is Sowell has a much higher level he can get to, vs Eski, Overbee, etc. Those guys knew the system and are good, but Sowell looks like a 'dude' as Woody would say. Just takes some time to get comfy in the system, w Rocco, et al.
So if Sowell is indeed a 'dude', and the other guys are solid as well, thats more than enough at WR for this team to succeed. And thats to say nothing of Townsend, who might also be a dude syill to emerge.
Look anywhere. If a team was once riding high, but is now riding low, their level of cannibalism is unreal. The sad part is they always have the expectations they can return to the glory years. There are a lot of examples out there. It'd really be interesting to see the attendance stats of once successful teams that are now dumpster fires. The 'real' attendance stats; not like Nebraska's inflated ones. And, that's not even touching on their impatience with new coaches.
I hope it doesn't happen here, but if we do have a slide, it will. Just the bad side of human nature.
