We are? We had a ok quarter and a half. Fortunately Iowa was more incompetent. Should win, but dropping this one wouldn’t be a shock either given how Septembers go for us.
Arkansas State Message Board fodder
- Thread starter cykick
- Start date
An okay quarter and a half is probably enough to beat ARST, too.
Hey, last team we beat Iowa, we won the following game to start 3-0. The problems were almost every game after that!
I do trust this group to keep it together for 8ish wins (had 7ish pre-season) more so than '22.
That is probably true. On the 2022 note, the signs were there for a train wreck season after that 3-0 start. Our Iowa win this time looked much stronger. (Not saying a whole lot)
Unfortunately I’m still waiting for that wtf loss at Houston to round out September. This year definitely won’t end up like 2022 though.
I thought that thread was full of (mostly) reasonable and clearheaded takes.
I have to respect somebody to be enough of a fan of Arkansas State to post there. It can't be easy being a fan of a G5 program that is never going to have the resources or prestige of an Iowa State.
Think how we think of schools like Ohio State and Georgia and multiply that by ten.
Kinda same unfortunately. When was the last time isu started 4-0 or 5-0? I know we’ll be favored to do it, just not sure if I’ve ever seen it in my life so I’m skeptical
I went to look and it looks very familiar. Start out the week after the loss feeling down and predicting ISU is going to be even tougher than their trip to Ann Arbor and not giving their team much of a chance. Then they see chatter on CF that Cyclone fans don't give them much of a chance and start getting offended and wondering who the hell do ISU fans think they are. Then they here CW and Blum being dismissive of them on the podcast and focusing more on future Big XII opponents and talk themselves into the fact that they can win because they are a lot better than we think they are and they are going to surprise us. Sounds incredibly familiar.
I threw an orange or two that fall
Anyone else getting the suspicion attendance is going to be bad? Like worst since Tech in ‘16. Drake doesn’t count.
Have you been hearing/seeing ads for tickets from the Athletic Department for Saturday? What is setting off the spidey senses?
Just curious what makes you think this? The weather is supposed to be good and the team is winning. Yeah a few people are in the fields but not going hard yet.
I’ve seen a few public “hey, we need to get out for this team” posts from CW and even the football social media team. They don’t do that when sales are good.
I watched some of that game. The Michigan QB was awful. Threw a bunch of bad picks and now he's benched for this week. And they were still way up going into the 4th.
I think season ticket sales were down this year (makes sense with no iowa or Texas along with the unfamiliarity with some of the new big 12 teams).
Idk, I read the situation more as we really need to try to sell this game out to show support for a good team. Less than 50K would be disappointing to me, but I bet the athletic department wants 58K+
Well I think they have reached a price point that even Cyclone fans evaluate staying home vrs going to the game.
Two FB posts earlier today from ISU Athletics said both single game parking and single game tickets are available for this Saturday.
