If Iowa State had Jake Campos this year....

[ChrisMWilliams]

....How many wins would the Cyclones have?

I say at least three. Give me Campos and Daniel Burton, probably four.

Am I nuts?

(these are the things I think about on Wednesday nights when I put my daughter to bed)

I'm with ya bud. Add in KCM not being out for a few of those games and we're there.

 

[RedBlooded]

Would we have at least one more critical scoring drive that could have resulted in in one more win if we had chase allen and Campos?

 

[Acylum]

You're nuts.

 

[demoncore1031]

Where would Good-Jones be playing if Campos wasn't hurt? Maybe left tackle with Fett playing over Seda at guard?

 

[Cydkar]

We've played no team with injuries...

 

[Cyclonepride]

Campos and Burton together, I would say three. The offensive line has improved a lot and don't get the credit that they deserve (though they aren't where we'll need them to be in the future). I see that the line improvement as a tremendous sign for the future, as I imagine that those kids that are sitting out are getting the same quality of teaching and training.

 

[CRcyclone6]

I'd say one more. UNI.

 

[Clonegrad07]

Unless Campos (and/or Burton) was going to stop the run in the 4th qtr vs. Baylor or Okie State, then I don't know how many more... probably just 1 more win (UNI).

 

[coolerifyoudid]

undefeated

UNI and....?

 

[dawgpound]

I say UNI for sure, then possibly one of Baylor, Okie State, or K-State. We definitely score more points I think.

 

[dualthreat]

Our problems go beyond 1 guy on the o line. it's not like JC was an AA.

 

[madguy30]

If they make basic football plays late, ISU may have 3 wins without Campos.

I suppose experience helps up front for maybe one more win.

 

[ISUMojoMan]

I think a long ball control drive in the fourth quarter when you are up against Baylor and Oklahoma State is a way to stop the opposing teams offense so I could see those outcomes changing.

 

[cycloneted]

 

[CycoCyclone]

you're nuts, campos wouldn't make lanning more accurate or our run defense less porous

 

[Bryce7]

With six close games, maybe one or two more wins. Maybe we would have scored a touchdown or two against the hawkettes.

 

[AdamJGray]

2 more. UNI and pick one of the other close games.

Where it really matters though is confidence. You beat UNI to start the year, and the season could be different. Once we lost that game, the staff has their work cut out each week just to keep the guys locked in.

If Chase Allen was in position to help us enough to win additional games, he would be playing. He's not injured, he's red shirting. As for Campos, maybe the UNI game. But as inexperienced as our OL is, we are scoring enough points to win games. Our run defense has been terrible and the reasons teams take over games for long periods. Not sure Campos is helping much there.
