I'm tired of hearing about the great Matt Campbell

You’re making **** up.
And every single time we played one of those good teams, we were at least 14-0 behind before we took the field.
Remember his best team? They played 3 good teams, and lost all of them. They were destroyed in 2 of them.
What were the scores of the k state games, other than the one where he blew a 28-7 lead, when k state was good?.
Not great. Even the 2000 team got mudholed in Manhattan
Dan did great things for ISU, but seemed to always lose those games against the big dogs
You mean Gene Smith is the catalyst.
I am quite certain that til this very day, the baseball program is happy he borrowed himself into Arizona State, and them out of a program.
And his were never even remotely competitive against any of the good teams.
And he was lucky to catch Iowa at the end of fry and beginning of ferentz.
It really bothers you that truth and fact destroy your pitiful attempts at revision.
Baylor was 0 - forever on the road in the big 12 going into that game. Super motivator guy had his team sleepwalk through an embarrassing loss. And he was never ever a good enough coach to change momentum, ever. That’s why we lost games to the good teams in the conference by huge margins.
It was not Mac, any coach at Iowa State at that time who was still around at 6-27, after fry cratered the program after Dwight and banks used up their eligibility.
I think Stevie Hicks was out that game. Wasn’t that why Coleman, the converted fullback, was playing halfback and fumbled?
So long as we only lose games to good teams - and Iowa is a good team - we're making progress.
Then he left and went to Montana the following season... Was expecting great things from him...
And have a chance late, which for the most part ISU has had in their losses the last 2 seasons.
They got handled in Austin but even then, a play or two breaks out, and it's anyone's game.
Most likely, when / if we lose to Iowa, we won't win B12; and I would be floored if we win B12 this year.
The years we beat Iowa will probably also be the year we win B12; baring injuries.
There's only 12 games in a season; the all count and require equal respect and preparation, including the two cupcakes we deliberately schedule.
yeah. We outgained them by like 100 yards too.
Pretty standard.
Baylor was like 6-67 in conference play going into that game too.
Btw, where is the op to come in and tell us how bad Campbell is? Haven’t seen him and his hot takes for a few days.
The 2 have nothing to do with one another. We lost last year and had every opportunity make it to the Big12 game.
I think Campbell subscribes to the theory that each of the 12 games mean something. Mac seemed like Iowa/Nebraska and then the other 9-10 games.
There was one game at KState where it was like 49-0 at halftime. In the locker room at half time Coach Skladany (the DC) was going nuts - "f this, f that, if we don't start playing better and come back to win we will all run when we get back to Ames. I'll run your asses until I get sick of watching, it could be 10 AM tomorrow f this, f me". Mac steps in a says no they won't be running like that when we get back.
I played on 8 kickoff returns that day lol
