Goals for next year?

[aeroclone]

Beat iowa, 7 win regular season, bowl win.

 

[CloneGuy8]

Win rivalry games
Beat Texas
Finally have what we would consider to be a good offensive line
Win bowl game

 

[MyCyView]

Maintain coaching continuity and recruiting momentum!!! All the rest will fall into place!!!

 

[spitfyr36]

Undefeated non con
.500+ Big12
Win bowl game.

This seems to be the means of most fans, and hopefully will be the norm.
Once that happens goals can shift to winning big12 champ

 

[Cyclonepride]

I'm an optimist, and the last two Matt Campbell teams exceeded my expectations. I won't put a ceiling on what he can do.

 

[CyForPresident]

6 wins with a win over Iowa. Anything after that is gravy

 

[ISUBerg]

B12 title or bust. We have one of the most experienced teams coming back.
There is no team on the schedule next year that we can’t beat.

 

[IASTATE07]

B12 title or bust. We have one of the most experienced teams coming back.
There is no team on the schedule next year that we can’t beat.

Some people seem to be ok with achieving a low bar.

 

[huntt26]

Goal: 9+ wins & bowl game victory

 

[clonedlion]

Big 12 Title
CFP opportunity.

 

[isufbcurt]

Play in B12 title game and beat Iowa

Yeah, some people misunderstand goals vs expectation.

If your 'goal' isnt at least 'play in the CCG' after the fact that we've been in reasonable distance of it at points the last 2 years, you're setting the goal too low.

Saying something like '7-8 wins' is more like an 'expectation'. Its what we've already done and reasonably can expect ISU to repeat next year.

 

[CYber_saber]

Win every ******* game

 

[awd4cy]

Goal is Big 12 title game with how much we return.

 

[CYTUTT]

Anyone who knows Campbell, knows he “burns his goals.”

 

[norcalcy]

Keep up the program momentum. Have offense and special teams rise to the level of our defense.

 

[cymonw1980]

What are your top goals for the team next year? In order mine are:

1) Play in the big 12 championship
2) Make a New Years 6 bowl or better
3) Finish non conference undefeated (no more slow starts to the season)
4) Average 35 pts a game scoring

I would say:

1) Make 3rd straight Bowl (2nd time in ISU history, 2000-'02)
2) Reach 8+ wins for third straight year (First time since Earl Bruce Cyclones won 8 games each season from 1976-1978)
3) Sweep Non-Conf, get off to strong start, Beat toe for first time with Campbell
4) Win 10+ games for first time in ISU History
5) Play in Big 12 Title Game

I sort of disagree, especially if we lose DM and Butler.

Nothing wrong with "settling" for regular bowl games and an upward trajectory. As opposed to our history of a bowl game or two sandwiched between extended periods in the basement.

 

[DesertClone1]

Make a run at the big 12 title. The league should be down next year outside of Texas.

 

[Daserop]

don't suck
