We are the Bad News Bears folks. You can only laugh. It's so sad.

Instead of just going for it on 4th and 2, with guys that at least kinda know what they're doing, you resort to a fake punt with a safety trying to make a catch into the sun. And then drop it.

Followed up by another 50 yd run for OU. Nobody will come back after halftime to watch this crap.

I'm pretty sure the Bad News Bears actually won some games as time went on, not exactly the case here.

Don't care if its OU or not. Wally doesn't deserve a pass and frankly, neither does Rhoads.


No way Wally is getting a pass. He's gone. And then next year CPR will be given a pass again because we will have a new DC

Here nor there
That fake punt is the perfect portrait of ISU football. It doesn't get any more basic than just catching a football. Always finding unique ways to completely blow it. Unbelievable.

Yep. The way we win under CPR is to hope the other team makes more junior high mistakes than ISU. That is bad news against anyone, and horrible against teams with talent like OU.

Anyone think this team is getting better? Anyone?


Those are Monday threads, explaining that we all knew this was a rebuilding year, that people should stop obsessively pining for DMac (even though nobody really is), and that we have to understand that young players take time to develop, which isn't helped by the injuries which cripple our depth.

Never mind the complete lack of preparation, urgency, or execution. Most teams show up for home games. We have other things to do, if only that pesky game wasn't in the way.

BTW: just noticed that the countdown ticker just switched to basketball!
