I would say Houston is the worst in the Big 12 right now.

Was this a great game by ISU? Far from it. Yet they still got a shutout and won a conference road game by 20. And come November, nobody is really going to care if ISU beat Houston by 20 or by 40.

ISU is 4-0, 1-0. Time to move on to Baylor.
The health of individual teams is judged on their status at the end of the season, not the fate of the individual game. We are golden. At this point.

Post #436 when you questioned if ISU could come back even though Houston hadn't scored a single point.
This was my post:

"It's early, but Rocco is having one of the worst games of his young career. Can we still find a way to win?"

Asking if we can find a way to win when we're only up 3-0 and our QB is having an uncharacteristicly bad game seems like a pretty reasonable comment to me.

20-0 on the road. No reason to try and take anything away from that. Probably our 6th straight conference road cover.

It wasn’t uncharacteristic…it’s been the norm so far.
