I rewatched the last 8 minutes. The last 2 minutes were coaching malpractice by Klieman.

1st and 10 on the 20 1:35 2 Timeouts
Incomplete
Designed Qb run???? Wtf
Clock running everyone looking flustered
Incomplete
4th and 8….no timeout incomplete

Left with 2 timeouts in his pocket and everyone disoriented the last 3 plays.

We had great D, but they did the same horrendous red zone against Texas to try and win.

“The Big 12’s new crown jewel…”. Huh?

KSU fans believe it. Last years champs. Ou and tx gone.

 

[Stormin]

Norton and Sanders didn’t make the trip? Why? Who were backups?

Carson Hansen backed up Abu Sama. Personal issues it sounds like. Probably looking at portal. Something’s up. IMO Campbell is making sure that they are committed to the team. And made it clear they are still a part of the team.

 

[Dgilbertson]

Really nice blocking on that run. Who's leading out of the backfield destroying that kstate defender? Knocks him on his ass like he got hit by a truck.

Steve-o

I also think there is a pretty good chance that the Iowa football program will be in decline in the coming years. I have very little confidence in their admin, the "Kirk Ferentz" and "Hayden Fry" era/line appears to be finally coming to an end, and their schedule is about to become much more difficult. They could become a doormat.

ISU needs to take advantage of this opportunity.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

139 yards per play is pretty good i guess...

Only in the Big 1 conference can that happen.

This really shook my fatalistic pessimism when it comes to Iowa State football and college sports in general. I am not sure what to think anymore, but after all KSU is only another land grant college like ISU, and they aren't from the DEEP south.

I suppose I will try to be happy, and throw off pessimism for a day or so.

Anyone listen to any next day football podcasts yet? I doubt we get much run but would be interesting to hear if they talk about our game at all.

 

[BCClone]

Only ran 2 plays in ksu territory. One was the bad hike.

Bonifas knew we were better on our side, too close to the endzone. So he got us to back up.

CMC found out they were looking to leave and left them at home.

I hope this is 100% true. You want to play somewhere else? Fine, but you won't take snaps from guys that want to be Cyclones.

 

[JRE1975]

I have been watching Iowa State football for over 50 years. I never thought I would see a crazier game than the 9 turnover Nebraska win, but I saw the best ever last night!

Shout out to every defensive player that had to defend for over 100 plays!! They have to be exhausted.

To me, ^this is as much “Mt Union” approach as anything. Talented, but a clubhouse cancer. See ya. Not sure you want to stick around, let me make it easy for you.

I love their pain

Game highlights, 100% shot from field level, interesting perspective for this snow game

 

[CYDJ]

Just watching KCCI news this morning. They don’t show a single highlight of the win last night. They talk about it, and show some stats. BUT….we got highlights of the Michigan game and video of an interview of Kirk Ferentz. Man does out local news suck. Oh, also as i type this, we get video of Drake and also Grandview. But no video of ISU.

That sort of stuff is difficult to get. It is only available ..... Looks it up...... Everywhere.

I'm in the camp of if you are looking for a change because you have some family/personal stuff going on then the coaching staff needs to help out that young person in anyway that they can. If you are looking for a change cause you want that bag then you shut your mouth up about it until after the season. I you are looking for a change cause you want that bag and you are dumb enough to open your mouth about it with a minimum of 2 games left then you deserve to be kicked out of the room.

It's going to be a damn shame going forward with a lot of these individuals because they are going to have so many birdies chirping in their ears promising them this and promising them that. They haven't had that before and eyes get wide and mind gets narrow.

 

[JP4CY]

This is a Matt Campbell tradition. We will lose this game and many Iowa State fans will say we kept it close. Close is not good enough. Campbell will say that we're young and fought hard. What a joke! I guarantee we will lose to KSU

We were in the red zone 6 times for a total of 10.05 seconds, maybe less.
