Only really disappointing thing is of the three games involved in the Big 12 race today of course we are the only home team to drop it. Can’t lose this game at home with what was on the line.

Had this been on the road ok, but night game at home? Gotta win those.

Let’s win the next three!

It is hard when officiating is so terrible (both ways) to get in anything related to a rhythm. KU’s offense is a bunch of junk, no rhythm needed. Easier for them to withstand the hor$e$hit Big12 officials.

I wanted to go 1-1 between KU and BYU and I was very optimistic about the KU game (BYU not so much). Dropped this one and I am afraid we are going to get creamed at BYU.
-Late night game (not sure ISU has ever played this late)
-Playing in altitude
-BYU thrives in the home night games.

I sure hope I am wrong but not feeling good after dropping the KU game tonight.

They clearly thought they could run at will against this defense and it cost them the game. Frustrating and kind of reminded me of the Iowa game.

The team in the first half looked timid and not ready for moment and opposite of how they played and coached the last 5 games. Disappointing.

KU is very subtle in how it consistently cheats.

So many of those wide open or big plays?

Either picks or push-offs.

Watch closely.

That said, Campbell lost this one.

ISU was completely outcoached, and it was all because good old CMC reverted back to form.

I feel bad for the players and fans.

Campbell's delay in adjustments cost ISU another win.
Their route trees are all picks and rubs.

The defense only gave up 21 even with the blown play. They got to have one really good game to get bowl eligible.
This is what Iowa State does over and over again.

We give them a pick 6 or similar.
then we are sound defensively "except for like 4 plays" which they score on or damage us on. Since the offense can't find their way out of a wet paper bag, that equals a loss.

we are young, so that is what I will chalk it up to.

That was possibly the worse defensive effort in the Campbell era post 2016. Jason effing Bean just carved up the defense.

Look who showed up! Glad you didn't overdose after any of the recent wins.

Man...buckle up because BYU (although getting drilled by WV right now) is not easy to beat in Provo at 9pm in the thin air.
We are not beating Texas and K-State I am telling you now so do the math on a bowl game.
I came in feeling like the KU game was a must win for a bowl game. I expect us to lose out now to finish 5-7. BYU is just a tough road trip, and I think UT and KSU are just flat out better teams than us.

Actually love it that CMC got embarrassed on that last 1st down…. totally outcoached all night.

CMC would have NEVER called that play that Leipold did there.

I agree. If it’s not there the qb can still eat it and punt. It kept our offense off the field. I was jealous.

I swear it’s a macho thing to prove you can line up and telegraph interior run and still run for 3 yards.
