*** Official IOWA STATE vs Ohio Game(Day) Thread ***

[3TrueFans]

Have we reached the who are we ever going to get who can do better portion of the program?

Surely we can at least find someone that can play boring football and lose but do it for like half the money?

 

[dosry5]

we are still a couple weeks away from raking leaves...ugh.

Mow your lawn. Go fishing. Pull your finger nails out with pliers. All better options than this.

Campbell is losing 8 figures … at least he is loyal. Let’s see if he can turn it around.

 

[cyatheart]

Is it crazy to think that if this season we go 1-11 and don’t really improve much next year that Campbell and his staff may be gone? It’s starting to feel like he’s lost it and has regressed so quickly and can’t get out of this hole.

He's lost it, he can't look at it without a biased opinion. He's not capable of improvement.

Fair catching a kick off when it's landing at the 15?

 

[SDClone]

What happened to the guy that was telling us before the season losing all those guys to graduation and ineligibility wouldn’t really hurt us because we have so much young talent. Think he even said we wouldn’t miss X because we have Higgins.

I think it’s more coaching than talent. This team didn’t come ready to play, they won’t let any young guys get a chance to play on this terrible oline, play calling is horrible. That is just a few things.

Final score is going to be 7-0, Ohio wins. This is going to be one of our worst seasons in ISU history.

Yep. Kinda had that feeling when the gambling thing hit. We lost our best guys On O. WR shocks me tho. Why can’t we recruit some speed guys.

 

[clonebb]

You guys think we can actually score 3 points?

 

[Die4Cy]

How much does MC regret not striking while the iron was hot? He's never gonna have opportunities like that again.

Maybe he knew he didn't want to Peter principle himself.

 

[FerShizzle]

I swear that when I say we are in the decline stage that only ends with a coaching change I’m not trying to be a smart ass. But I’m serious. That’s where we’re at. I wish that wasn’t reality. It’s been a great run by ISU standards.

Every team ISU plays this year with have a better QB, offensive skill players, and offensive coaching than ISU. In year 7!!!

 

[HouClone]

I hope Ohio doesn't rush the field after this win, that would be embarrassing for them.

It would be weird rushing the field after a win over only a middling P5 team. But I am fine with it. We do it all the time, football and basketball.

 

[Cyhig]

This team has no fire just going through the motions might as well get on the plane now and head back to Ames

This. I have always said I will support the team no matter what so long as they give it 100%

They are not giving it 100% today.

 

[ClonerJams]

Who would have thought it would be better for Campbell and ISU if Notre Dame offered him the job a couple years back.

 

[Inthesystem]

I hate to say ISU football is the graveyard of coaching careers but history shows you get out when you’re hot.

 

[ISU22CY]

Lol two guys running same route right by each other

 

[Thomasrickj]

Yep. Kinda had that feeling when the gambling thing hit. We lost our best guys On O. WR shocks me tho. Why can’t we recruit some speed guys.

Noel is super fast. Too bad he’s afraid to get hit and can’t catch the ball.

 

[chadly82]

3?!

I was being generous

 

[ZuriCyclone]

We knew this tram was going to be bad this season, but watching it happens is still terrible

 

[madguy30]

ISU WRs in 'we're behind but let me talk ahot about a 6 yard hitch' mode.

That's a bigger red flag than the offense.

 

[Gunnerclone]

If he loses this, and right now I can't see how we can score. It's the end....whether he goes in 2 years or 3 years it doesn't matter. Recruiting dies if they don't win this.

It’s a classic phase of the decline stage. The margin for error keeps shrinking and shrinking and you know what needs to be done, but you can’t do it because of exactly what you’ve said.
