If that's a engrish word, when will ISU fans learn to be objective vs subjective? We won 10 games, aren't a laughing stock, but also just aren't that good.

Defense is dog s*** for a 10 win team. O line is better than its been in forever. Pass game is bleh. Hansen is a baller. No business being a 10 win team as proud as I am about this unit

Testifying
Objectively I don't have too much of an issue with the defense if we look at injuries.
Scheme, that part seems to have been a problem with multiple games.

Now, someone that knows Xs and Os better than me can probably say if that scheme was because of the youth and just letting guys play what was preached all off season or was it just stubbornness from the staff.

Is ASU better? yes. Not 10 wins out of 10 tries better, probably 7 or 8/10. Heck maybe not even that many.

It was a terrible day. Of course there are improvements to be made.

Sucks to be over, but did anyone really think this team could win a natty?

Not exactly sure.
My point is we're the Chiefs. No business having the current record. Rocco is a winner like Mahomes, but not having a good year. I have no faith we beat Colorado in San Antonio even if Sanders and Hunter sit
So we can’t beat a team that got beat well by Nebraska???? Yeah, learn objectively

We will get SMU in pop tarts. They will kill us too though.

Second game of the year. Not saying can't, just not confident. No run game makes me feel OK. Scoring not so much

Can't we be objective?

You mean two-time defending champions that have won 8 straight division titles, have a HOF coach, and HOF QB? No, ISU and Rocco are literally nothing like the Chiefs.

Terrible rush defense. A lot due to injuries. Inept offense that relys on 2 receivers. Also injuries, Brahmer specifically. Special team fiasco's, even if they've been better than most of CMC's years

Objective
1. There is parity in the Big 12 and that doesn’t mean it’s a tough conference.
2. ISU picked up ten wins against mainly average to below average teams. The only decent team we beat was KSU. Otherwise we feasted (usually barely) on below average or poor teams.
3. regardless of competition, ten times ISU found the way to win. Sometimes in spite of how poor ISU played.
4. This team isn’t loaded with superstars. In fact, there are very few on the team at all.
5. inconsistency was the name of the ISU game all year.
6. one has to scratch your head at the job done by the OC.
7. DC gets a pass just because of injuries. BUT the poor tackling and poor pass coverage we saw is more about players than coaching.

So we should have thrown to Brahmer instead of Burkle today? That would have been a huge difference?
