The truth is upon us Bwilk! Either accept it or not..either way Herman he's running outa excuses why we can 't win! You can only use the injury card so many times...whats it gonna be next game?, His wife didn't give him any Friday nite?
You really think we only score 3-7 points tomorrow?
If we struggle then yes, IState not gonna give us anything and if we trip they gonna be there to make sure we don't get up..they are not like KState mercy..and plus the fact that we are playing in Ames doesn't help the equation any, if we come to play then we have a chance, if we **** around then no chance...cause they gonna be ready to play,
ISU Mods takes:
ROB GRAY, SENIOR WRITER – IOWA STATE 38, TEXAS 27
The Cyclones have scored 34 or more points in four of the past five games and, coincidentally, Texas is allowing 34 points per game to Big 12 opponents. That ranks seventh in the league. I like everything about Iowa State in this matchup and fully expect one of the team’s best efforts of the season. It’s tight for a while as the Longhorns can definitely move the ball and score, but a second-half takeaway and solid defense help the Cyclones secure a reasonably comfortable win.

Texas does certain things well that Iowa State does not. However, I do not believe they will find execution easy for the entire game. Conversely, I believe Iowa State has found some offensive identity with the 3 tight set. I also think when ISU splits out you will see 1 or 2 TE’s split. If Iowa State adheres to what I believe their identity is, then Texas will have a much harder time stopping them than Iowa State will stopping Texas.
JEFF WOODY, FOOTBALL ANALYST – IOWA STATE 32, TEXAS 19
Iowa State has what Texas doesn’t like to face on offense: diversity. Teams that have been able to spread the ball out against Texas have had success – OU, Kansas (yes, Kansas), West Virginia. But Iowa State’s Achilles heel has been in giving up the ball. They avoided it against OU and they need to continue to do the same thing. ISU also specializes (aside from a few big runs) in stopping the opposing running game. UT’s entire offense is predicated on their ability to run, so it seems like a matchup advantage for the Cyclones on both sides, save for mistakes.
ISU has the chance, if they don’t turn it over, to make a statement.

I feel strangely confident about this game and that usually means Iowa State will either win by a lot or have something catastrophic occur. I refuse to believe Matt Campbell and Brock Purdy will let the latter happen, so I’m going to step out on a limb here and predict everything comes together on a magical Saturday afternoon in Ames.
KIRK HAALAND, STATS NERD – IOWA STATE 34, TEXAS 28
It sure seems like Iowa State is ready and due to put it all together for a complete game, and they very well could need two of those in the last three games if they are to beat Texas and win at Kansas State. Texas has been depleted by injuries on the defensive side of the ball, but per the usual, has failed to live up to the pre-season hype train. The Longhorn defense has been giving up yards but they are top 25 in terms of takeaways. If the Cyclones can avoid the big mistakes with the ball and contain the strong Texas rush attack they should be fine.

You got faith Jasper!
We are a 7 point dog.
We win this game and Orlando might save his job.

Even the Iowa State homers think we score 20+ points. I still can't understand your negativity about an offense that is one of the top units in the nation.
You may be on to something with your 3-7.IState 28
Texas 3 or 7
Hope Texas can pull a upset in Ames!
So your score prediction was only 18-14 points off for our offense. Even with one of our worst offensive showings, you way undersold our team. I don't mind pessimism but at least keep things realistic.
