Renewed a few weeks ago and added a seat for the kiddo as well instead of just having him sit on our laps.
Way too early football predictions?
- Thread starter UnCytely
- Start date
Probably canceled due to severe weather
ummmm….it’s their Super Bowl, right?
Thank God we don’t have the Purple Hoks on the schedule this year.
It’s like some people haven’t seen Petras play.
Petras was awful against us last year.
Absolutely irrelevant if he doesn’t turn it over and we hand Iowa the ball every other possession.
Until Campbell takes the non-conference seriously, this game is a loss.
I like 7-5 for us, maybe 8-4.
I feel like we thrive more with low expectations. Would make sense that this would be a year we perform better in close games.

We own Texas lately. They lost their best player in Bijan Robinson.
I think the defense is shored up better than most of the national pundits will rate us. Losing Mike Rose and Enyi Uwazurike hurts no question. But I think about the three lines of the D:
- Corners will be solid in Myles Purchase and TJ Tampa. Tampa needs to make a leap this year as we know. Purchase was fearless as a true frosh and looked like he belonged. I think he can be a Brian Peavy type talent
- D Line is extremely solid: Isiah Lee, JR Singleton are great players. Howard Brown is an unknown, Dominique Orange could be a beast in a year and a half. Blake Peterson wins the DE job opposite of Will McDonald, he will have a huge opportunity with teams double teaming Will on the edge
- LB: Tyson Veidt is one of the best in the business. Orien Vance, Gerry Vaughn, and Colby Reeder will be very solid. Maybe a freshman here plays a lot like Rose did in 2017.
- Safety: we have maybe the best group we have had ever here. Craig McDonald is a sure tackler and phenomenal athlete. Beau Freyler will play in the NFL. Anthony Johnson will be strong at the 3rd safety
We need to force more picks this year. The D will be a strong point yet again.
I'm looking forward to the USFL to get me through the spring. Looks like Pettaway is playing for the Panther's.
I'm truly sorry to rain on the parade. And nothing would please me more if I end up eating crow, but I think many on here are overly optimistic.
I think people are giving to much credit to Dekkers and will end up being disappointed in his performances. And watching a defense give up first downs on third and forever, is quite deflating
At tops I see 5-7. Like I said I hope and pray I'm wrong, but after last season, I can't see how a team can improve when it seems to constantly rely on winning on the last possession.

Lots of people are here. No jimlad required.Well, I think you’re just overly pessimistic
His stats weren't good but he did throw that long TD. Made the plays when needed and exposed a leaky secondary.
The 'make the play' was something ISU wasn't strong in for most of the season.
1st year starting QB.. No proven commodities at RB. Tons of turnover at key spots.
6-6 would be an AWESOME year unless the Big 12 is down. 7-5 if we beat Iowa

Now watch, Campbell finally gets over the CyHawk hump -- but we finish 4-8 or something.
