Apples to oranges.

Would Matt Campbell have been able to field a team that could beat Tom Osborne and Barry Switzer back when there were no scholarship limits and the only schools "allowed" to pay players were the Nebraska's and Oklahoma's?

With his recent statements on how hard it is to win at ISU, and that winning the conference isn't the goal.......I have my doubts. You would never hear either of coaches say that. They had the LE attitude of "why not here".

I think early in his tenure at ISU Matt had a little of that himself. Something has changed. Hopefully he can get that mojo back because trying to be Kirk Ferentz isn't a good look.

Bring back Walden?

Johnny Majors never ever beat Nebraska while at Iowa State. Majors and Bruce never ever beat Oklahoma.

Relative quiet tonight in this thread. JoeFrog in Iowa City celebrating a victory over Purdue.
I hate Iowa City traffic, and outside of watching DeJean, Iowa is boring football.

Very happy for the Trice family, team, fans, coaching staff, and Matt Campbell.

Best job he/they have done in years.

Always happy to see ISU win.

I hope Campbell serves me more and more crow.

You kicked Campbell to the curb a couple weeks ago. You are a complete idiot. We would be in chaos right now with your decisions. Trust Campbell. That is what the smart people were saying.

Over a year ago.

One game is one game.

I am always happy to see ISU win.

I hope he can keep it going the rest of the season.

If not, I'm fine with something new.

I just appreciate ISU played to win.

Going for it on 4th and 3 was gutsy and the correct call.
