Asking again: Has the rot started to set in?

Sometimes you just have to admit you are completely wrong. Completely. You would have fired Campbell. You tell us to admit that it is not working anymore. So for you, it is over and Campbell needs to go. You and Joefrog are idiots.
It 100% goes back to our inability to beat Iowa. People put WAY too much stock into that game. Fans need to quit looking at Iowa's record and think that we are going to attain that year in year out. We aren't catching their scheduling breaks.
Look at yourself. Did I come in here and blast people and call them idiots after we got embarrassed in Norman? Nope. Yet here you are, acting a fool. The Jihadic wing of Cyclone Fanatic ladies and gentlemen.
We just beat an unranked TCU team and the Campbell-stans are acting like we made the playoffs. It’s frankly embarrassing. Raise your expectations, folks.
We just soundly beat a program who was in the national championship game last year. On a night where our offense was clicking and our defense looked the best it has all year and we had a huge special teams play. It was the type of momentous win this young team needs right now. Now let’s see if they can put it together on the road.
Unfortunately two of our losses are to the #5 team in the country (who will probably win the conference and may make a CFP appearance) and to a team who will probably win the MAC (and is crushing everyone they’ve played since us)
I know I am not the only one who left the game in Norman encouraged. I'm also OK with calling it embarrassing.
And anyone with half a brain who watched the Iowa/Ohio games know that they were winnable. Instead we lost, because of inexcusable play calling and piss-poor game management.
Our program is capable of so much more. This team is capable of so much more. Reject mediocrity. ******** teams go 6-6, so they say.

Gunner and Joefrog. I called you two idiots. We got beat badly in Norman by the Top Ten ranked OU Sooners. Like that is a rarity in Cyclone football. Such idiocy.
We didn’t play 2022 TCU this week. This media talking point of the “team that was in the championship game last year” that everyone is now parroting is hilarious.
So is your non-stop pissing and moaning. Jfc.
You appear to have whiffed on your prediction for the next four games. What do you think happens the next three?
I was told by you, JoeFrog and others that this team would never recover from the death spiral rot. We were destined to be a 1 win team and that we should get out in front of this. Nobody is celebrating 3-3 but rather pointing out that you guys were morons for wanting Campbell to be fired. You literally thought we would be 1-5 heading into Cincy.
And we can discuss expectations all you want, but 6-6 or 7-5 in a rebuild year is still a positive step for Iowa State. If you expect more than perhaps you and others should invest in a higher giving level or give more to WeWill.
There were some legitimate concerns about the last couple seasons and the first 3 games of this season. It seems like the last 3 games the staff and team made some changes and have made lots of improvements. Both things can be true.
Also, Matt should probably get more credit for the off-season changes he made. ST has been a lot better this year overall, Nate has been getting much better at play calling and I have really liked what I have seen the last few games, and I think Clanton is starting to get the oline going and in a couple years should hopefully be a strength of the team.

The simple fact that you took time to that says a lot about you.
We did not play 2022 OU a couple weeks ago. OU might be in the CFP this year. Last year losing record.
