Been a rough 8 days. Starting to think @HFCS might have been wrong on the whole fixed game thing and we’re just not that good.

Yeah I was wrong. Officiating had no impact on the ONE half of ONE game I called a complete farce. Whatever you need to do to rationalize.

Being good or not had nothing to do with that one half.

Have to score to beat OU or WV even. Not sure as goofed up as our O is if that's possible. Need the QB comfy with what he's doing and he doesn't look it rn.
Might as well chuck it deep a couple times. Same as the massive number of punts.
Course, can the OL block that long?

FanDuel didn’t seem to think it had an impact. I sent them several strongly worded emails and they refused to refund my bets.

come down from the ledge.
you have the best defense in the conference. That's saying something.
Held kansas to almost nothing, and they moved at will on TCU, WVU, Duke, and others.

Would have beat kansas if not for a fluke kicking performance.
Kstate is a top 25 team. you lost by 1. Kstate has a good to very good coach too. Everyone in the big 12 does, except WVU and OU.

In football, everything is driven by the qb, and ISU just lost the best qb in its history. No, the offense isnt going to be as good as without Brock Purdy, and elite tes and rbs. That's just reality.

Be glad you're losing games by 1 point rather than double digits. It shows that you're close.

offense will get fixed. Maybe not this year. maybe you get a new qb in the portal. I think in big 12 you need a true dual threat guy to win. You need to give the new qb a year to get it going. and if he doesnt find a new guy. it is easy with the portal.

Welcome to the board.

Have a drink and relax. I'll take us at home against WVU & TT. I'd still say this is a 3-5 win team, but we need to get the OL figured out and throw the ball down field.

KU isn't the cake-walk and it was a road game. It starts with next week and beating K-State at JT.
How does Dekkers throw the ball down field with three rushers and eight defenders back in coverage?

Answer ...You run the football like Adrian Martinez did and make first downs and keep the drive alive!

Quoting Jack Whitver..."With eight men back in coverage the only thing open is the shallow crossing routes."
