Bowl or Bust

Sure they do. But extensive injuries on a large scale might factor into Pollard's decision. But it is his call to make.

And I know you'll be 100% behind any and every decision because that's what a good little lemming does.

CJ Beathard played behind Rudock and does not have as good of ratings or stats. So WHAT basis do you have that he is a better QB?

You lost 2 stud DT's and the replacements for them are inexperienced and do not show the type of talent or potential that the departing DT's had. You lost a 1st round Draft Pick from your Offensive Line. You lost your career leading WR K-Martin Manley. The replacements you have are a serious downgrade from last year. Yet you think they will equal last year's record???

Teams get better or worse in terms of what they lost and what they gained from the previous year. The Cyclones look to be improved. The Hawkeyes do not.

Do you have the Hawkeyes beating the Cyclones in Jack Trice?

You are basing a ton of your predictions off of inexperienced players like Tucker, Harris, Wiltz, Peavy, Northrup, Taiese, Warren, Brown etc. Yet you use that as your justification that Iowa's going to be terrible because of their inexperienced players. Ironic isn't it?

I've told you before I have no idea who will win the CyHawk game. The only thing I will predict is that it will probably be a good game as it usually is. I stand by the comment I made that every game on Iowa's schedule is winnable. That's far from me saying they will win every game. It just means their schedule is that easy.

Yes but our unproven players are good and your's are bad, can't you see this!?
 
Hey guys, Iowa is a bowl team while ISU isn't. Probably not the best idea to throw stones when our glass house is half shattered already, especially in a thread titled "Bowl or Bust."

Our inexperienced players are actually beating out the returning starters from the previous year. Jordan Harris beating out starter Kane Seeley. Tucker beating out starter Vernell Trent. Jomal Wiltz and Brian Peavey beating out Ken Lynn. Taiese beating out Oni Omoile.

There is a difference. When newcomers beat out the first stringers from the year before that is a positive thing. That indicates improvement.

I'm sure 3TrueFans backs the program financially. He probably donates and has season tickets. But no, lets just falsely assume he doesn't for the sake of you proving your point.

Never said he didn't donate or buy tickets. I guess I am not a "conditional" fan like some. I cheer for the Cyclones "unconditionally". Every game. Loyal son forever true.

I cheer for the Cyclones too, I just don't always think they're going to be good.

Anyone who isn't at least somewhat concerned about the future of this program is fooling themselves. Everyone else in the league has made at least one nice run except for ISU. I want that to be us, but it seems fans don't have what it takes to tell Jamie and the program that sub-mediocrity isn't ok.

Merely telling someone something does not make it automatically better. Withholding support and not buying tickets does not make us better. Complaining and ******** does not make us better. IMO, expanding the SEZ and filling the stadium can help to make us better. Improving our facilities can help make us better. Those things can definitely help make us better.

Predicting 4-6 wins is good?? That is a new one.

There's a world of difference between 4 and 6, I would say in the grand scheme of ISU football and coming off of 2 wins that 6 wins is pretty good, yes. 4 would be pretty ****.
