Frost vs Herman

Texas being down is better for Iowa State though. That’s all I care about.
UT being up and Baylor being down would be better imo. And UT being down hasn’t led to much better odds at a W. I think we can maintain our rare win against UT when they’re good.
UT and Baylor swapping roles would probably benefit us. If there is ever a fringe NY6 bowl they'd take Texas and would ponder Baylor.
That would bump our bowl game up.
That would bump our bowl game up.
Why is that better? I don’t care if UT is good again. Plus Campbell beat them this year and only lost to Texas twice when they were down, one being his first year.
Not true. Their excuse is they haven’t won enough games.
Conferences go as their big brands go. It’s better for us to beat a good UT team than a good Baylor team.
You think our winning percentage will greatly go down if they’re very good rather than Baylor?
It sure wouldn’t help. Texas being a well oiled machine again would be harder to beat than Baylor is being a well oiled machine. Baylor gets a lot of talent, but not like Texas does. Hard to have any edge over Texas in any game if they hire a legendary coach.
Baylor being bad rather than UT, which is the contention, historically leads to more wins for ISU than Baylor being good and UT being its version of bad.
Do we really know that Charlie Strong and Tom Herman are good head coaches? South Florida is already ready to fire Strong and Herman hasn’t been a head coach anywhere else.
They just throw money at the hot name coach, not the good fit coach.
With the two or unsportsmanlike penalties on Texas at the end of the game you have to wonder how close Herman is to losing the locker room.
