That was a chance for our program to take a big step forward. Like always, we pissed it down our leg. Being competitive doesn't cut it. Almost winning doesn't count.

I'd even say that was three quarters, and not just a half. Still progress.

When your at this point with our program, almost winning against a top 20 program is a huge building block.

We played well against a Top 20 team yes, but our program had a chance to really step up here and it again didn't quite happen.
Same with OU last year. It's so close we can taste it but it's not there yet...
Good things coming in hte future but... we're so close to getting it now and it keeps slipping out of our fingers

When the going got tough, we got back in the game. And were a heartbeat away from winning. This was a big step forward--just not an immense one.

How can you say a 2 point game that featured a recovered onside kick (against a top 20 team), and came down to essentially the last play wasn't a good game?

I agree about this group not being able to play a full half.
But wow, it's not like we didn't give ourselves a chance to win at the end. I guess I didn't realize that we were supposed to be competing for Big 12 titles in Coach Chizk's second year, especially when he was left a four year rebuild.
Plus, the North Division is not the pillow fight that it was a couple years ago either.

It was an entertaining game. We did not play a good game for long stretches. Like I said - we had some great plays, but not a good game.

You have to admit though that it is frustrating to watch other teams around the country not only come close but pull away with an upset win. Iowa State traditionally never does it. The other team always strives to get by us.

Great game, minus the 3rd quarter. I feel good about the rest of the season, much better than I did after the last couple losses. I can honestly see 3 wins in the next 3 weeks.
