[Cy Guy69]

So BYU did this.

Wow very well done BYU.

We need a KU loss, an OU loss, an OSU loss, and an Iowa State victory gives Iowa State a chance to control their own destiny for the Big 12 Championship game.

So you’re telling me there’s a chance…

+7 seems crazy

In other words ISU doesn't control its own destiny.

BYU is favored by 7?

Sorry -
A 7 point spread seems crazy

Yeah that was one that was really bad on Kane's part.

Road favorite and must win game. Very scary, but Cyclones can do it. Go Cyclones

That ship sailed last week.

Thats insanity

Not necessarily. On paper from a power ratings standpoint ISU is that much better than BYU. However, on paper and power ratings mean jack squat in the real world, and this one scares me. I hope this game is more like the OSU/Cincy game than last week, but I can feel the same old offensive stubbornness creeping in. I hope that i am wrong

Just win. Getting bowl eligible would after last year and the off-season would be a good accomplishment.

Correct......CANNOT leave it to a game at KSU to get a bowl bid (but dang, id love to beat them at KSU....while we've exercised some for the demons ala Mike Rose and such, would love to go there and just pound them)

Hopefully the defense is more disciplined to help.

Just 10 more hours.

Thankfully there's a ton of games between now and then.
