It's his fault Dekkers threw into triple coverage in the end zone instead of getting 3 points? Or probably his fault our defensive back cant a simple interception.

Manning sucks but hes hardly the problem today.

Dekkers's fault on the INT, Manning on 2nd down with that run play was pretty bad though. .

Margin moments:
- blocked Punt
- not recovering Ewers fumble
- Red zone INT
- Noel with 2 drops
- Overthrown pass to open X

Breaks:
Missed FG, and Ewers has been keeping us in this by some bad overthrows and dumb plays to start the game.

First drive of the second half decides how this game will go.

Totally agree. If Texas goes up 21-7 or even 17-7.... it's most likely over. This offense just cannot come back from that kind of deficit I'm afraid.

we lost a one point game last week , when we got the ball back twice on the 50 yard line to finish the game. you think they will recover from seven point deficit
There’s a chance we don’t, but at least the offense is more aggressive and actually scored a touchdown today.

Man, listening to these sportscast people talking about the Big 12 is so irritating. They have no respect for the Big 12 whatsoever. Basically you have to be undefeated to have a chance while the other conferences could have a loss and be a okay.

So many mistakes fundamentally every week. You can’t win games like this.
This.

Drops, kick returns, not fair catching punts, false starts (freaking again), having to call MULTIPLE time outs because the play clock is running down and NO ONE knows what they are supposed to be doing (one of which was after a penalty where both teams had a HUGE amount of time to recoup and get ready for the next play), etc etc.

Fundamentals and discipline - 2 key areas where Iowa State is consistently bad.

Purdy had some bad turnover but he was money in the red zone.

Purdy was so money in fact that he took the best ISU football roster ever with several NFL players on both sides of the ball to a 7-6 season.

We can play this game all we want to folks. Did Dekkers probably cost us this game today.... no doubt. Did Purdy cost us games in his career at ISU..... no doubt. Did Purdy also have a lot more talent to work with than Dekkers.... no doubt.

We'll see how this all plays out for Dekkers. He's got a long ways to go yet before he's done here. One thing we do know.... this staff has a way with destroying QB's.
