Maybe not suck, but they've always been the media darling because of their near perfect record while only playing a few ranked teams early in the year. The grind of a power 5 conference would be something they are not used to, and they very well might suck. They also might be a top 25 to just...
What happened when you had someone else repeat the experiment, could you produce repeatable results, or did you just consider yourself modern scientist and called it good as long as you got the result you were expecting.
You know there is a new offensive coordinator right, and he is also brand new to play calling? I know there is the "Campbell runs the offense" crowd, but that's garbage. He definitely dictates the offensive philosophy, but Nate is running the show and is rapidly improving. A lot of it is the...
The title of this post is humorous. No, the coaching they were doing all along and philosophies they push are slowly paying off. They didn't suddenly learn to coach, and they certainly didn't adjust play calling as a few on here think because of fan grumbling.
Boy are you delusional about how football works. Yep, everyone just shows up from various high school teams of all different sizes knowing everything about football like they were a 20 year NFL veteran. Did you not notice Rocco's pick sixes basically lost the 2 early games ISU lost. Coaches...
Every year sans last and possibly the year before, the team has constantly improved all year. That's good coaching. Some just can't see it because they ignore the adversity facing most college teams that can't just load up on 5 stars or buy an experienced power 5 defense like Oklahoma. Anyone...
Haven't lost yet so no factor to your point: OU, Texas
Since losing them: Nebby generally awful, Mizzou usually awful, Atm good but we only played them half the time anyway.
Haven't played yet so not a factor in this discussion: BYU, UCF, Houston
McCarney was popular as he was a great interview, he finally beat Iowa and won the first bowl game, but he only had a few good teams. Generally, his teams weren't very good, just better than the 80s. Chiz and CPR had near the same facilities they have now.
I absolutely disagree with this. Facilities are much better, but so are everyone else's. Still lag greatly and his results have eclipsed his resources.
