Not exactly sure.
Texas and OU will start hating having to listen to the bama, GA and FLA love and how they are predicated to win the conference.

JFC, guys. It's one writer's opinion. It's not like either of those guys he mentioned are nobodies, and according to Vegas insider, both have better odds to win the Heisman than anyone on Iowa State. Not every article on the college football season has to mention the Cyclones, or is evidence of some coordinated effort to bring us down. Being thin skinned isn't a good look on any fanbase.

A large portion of clone fans on here also see ISU as being a victim constantly. Its weird.

BTW, last night I watched CBSSports Network's "Inside Collge Football", which I always enjoy. Brian Jones (former UCLA / Texas player), picked Iowa State for the CFB Playoff and Breece Hall as one of his 3 Heisman Finalists. This is an enjoyable NATIONAL show that doesn't get too spinnish. It's on Tuesday Nights at 8 pm Central during the season.

It's typical pander to the bluebloods crap...those guys aren't slouches but we just gotta show it on the field. Heisman is obviously a great award, but I want wins.

What about the composition of Texas's team, losings its best lineman and starting a new QB for the first time in years, suggests that Robinson will have Heisman level success? I mean I'm sure Hudson Card will be great or something....

Vegas seems to think he has a better shot than anyone on Iowa State.

Do I think that Breece Hall or Brock Purdy will be better than him this year? Yes I do. But it's not some travesty of justice for a sportswriter to think that Robinson will be a Heisman contender. Clearly the odds makers believe in him.

Insecure conspiracy theorists. Makes our fan base look like ******* morons. The MAGA version of college football fans. It's embarrassing.

Sounds like my show going forward. Not going to click any of the ESPN stuff. For our ESPN game, I'll watch the game action but no pre-game, no halftime.
