Brad Banks never beat Iowa state in his career either. Kirk can make up for this by hanging 80 on them this year

And what do capital projects of a university have to do with the athletics department failing soon? They can dredge a pond with government money while the athletics department is simultaneously sounding a death rattle.
It just does

He is relying on players from a team that finished 5-4 in the B12 to now be in the top 25? And pointing that out is somehow a disrespect?

Raynor is a hell of an athlete but he does throw a lot of picks

How much did Pollard pay Pandy to write that hoping it would hit the register but the best Rabdy could offer was CyFan

I know. I think Lester can do it but Kirk feels bad for them.

The Athletic (Stewart Mandel) has an article today predicting the Big 12's final standings and they have the clowns dead last. Winning no conference games and 2 non conference games (they don't say which ones, but I can think we can assume).

Even with all the turnover, I'd still be shocked they don't win a single Conference game, but man, that wouldn't be a fun season (for them).

From the Article:
"It’s going to be a rough, rough season in Ames. There’s no sugarcoating it: Iowa State could be awful. Seemingly half the team followed Matt Campbell to Penn State after AD Jamie Pollard hired Washington State’s Jimmy Rogers, who brought a bunch of guys with him from a 6-6 Group of 6 team."

Link for those who can read it.

The NCAA record for Made FGs in a Season is 31.

I’m putting a Full Season/13 game/ healthy Kyle Konrardy on alert for a shot at this.
I just don't sense a fall on your face season. It feels like the new Rogers staff is too competent to allow that outcome. 2-10 is less likely than 10-2.
Nobody in the national media is doing any research on this team. I'm not saying we're going to be 8-4, but it's clear that they are mostly looking at the outgoing coach and players and calling it a day.

As a kid I lived a couple blocks from Jim Criner's house. One year they beat Kansas the last game of the year to win a conference game. They had a party at his house with search lights and fireworks. I want that kind of year for them... but without the one conference win.

A bunch of G5 guys from a 6-6 team move to the Big XII. They’ll probably be terrible.

But, also, a bunch of Big XII guys from a mediocre team moved to Penn State, and they’re ranked.

the Penn State thing is weird. They weren’t thst good last year! The same players change jerseys and become a top 20 team?

Didn’t they have an unusually large number of injuries to starters?
