Turning the corner

You are obviously a Mac homer which is fine. I am not going to argue with you tonight on the pluses and minuses of Mac after today.

I guess you could call it being a homer. I just was at ISU and attended all the games in the early 2000's with DMac's success. I'm excited for us to get back there.

Back there? Are you kidding me? Mac did a lot for this program but he never did anything like this. Not even close. Less than great coaches don't take this ISU team and beat OSU. Mac consistently took more talented teams and lost.

The most positive thing about this to me? We beat the #2 team in the nation and we didn't play our best. We had three turnovers and a bunch of missed opportunities. They did as well, but this game wasn't a fluke. The Missouri game will prove to be a fluke. Excited doesn't even come close to what this feels like right now. I remember the Nebraska game. I was jumping around and going crazy. Not tonight. It doesn't shock me anymore.

I guess what I meant was I'm excited that I'm finally as pumped about ISU football as I was back then. We've been through some dark times in the mid-aughts, and its awesome to come out of it even brighter than ever before.

Oh, ok, that makes sense.

I've been an ISU fan for 35 years.

The only single-game example that comes close to this: ISU MBB win over Michigan in 1986.

As far as football, nothing is even close.

I was a student when we kicked the can in 04 and 05. I cant forget those times.
