A loss is a loss. I sure hope our team doesn't take moral victories otherwise we won't improve.
I'm not sure about the team accepting moral victories, but there is sizable portion of this fan base that thinks ISU football should be judged by something other than wins and losses. There was a comment in another thread about $ being the main driver, as if there isn't a linkage between winning and $. I sure hope the administration and top donors are looking at wins as the ultimate measure of success. If their outlook mirrors some of what I see among posters here, God help us.
