Number one, have you read this forum? This thread? Some of the fans here are the most neurotic on the planet.
Number two, I didn’t see the full bit, but the video crew is in the habit of editing these to fit their purpose.

I would've agreed with this 5 years ago, but this rivalry is taking off because of conference realignment, competitive football games, and the recent basketball drama. It's good for us. And fun.
Should be a good crowd based on this…hoping a sellout announcement is next.
He is so young! To put this in context, Bear Bryant was 45 Years old when he became the HC @ Alabama (after coaching at Maryland, Kentucky and Texas A&M). I'm not saying MC will go somewhere and become Bear Bryant, but it just shocks me how young he is. He literally has the CFB World in front of him regardless of whether it is a super legacy at Iowa State or an attempt at something else elsewhere.
Time will tell.

Oh no doubt. In the bit Hassel said that ISU fanbase's nervous energy will cost the Iowa State FB team the Big XII championship.
I won't argue with you at all about what the mental/nervousness state of the Cyclone fans will or won't be, but it will have zero effect on the football game outcome.
Anyone who believes that it will is dumb.
Can you just imagine Campbell being injected with "truth serum" after Saturday and if they lose he goes "yeah, it wasn't our lack of execution. our guys just got choked because of the nervous vibes the fans were putting out there towards them." lol
Video crew? The tweet you posted was from some slapdick with an ISU logo as their profile picture.
I expect it to play out as follows or similar:
-ISU gets out to a 14-0 lead by the 2nd quarter. Things are looking good.
-they shut down KSU and get the ball back, but on their own possession, KSU blocks a punt, get a FG.
-The rest of the game is a bunch of weirdness with KSU chipping away, ending in a 23-20ish KSU win in the last 30ish seconds.
Yuck....sure hope not.....but KSU is pesky....certainly don't want to spot them points....but they special teams always good and it'll be a grinder.
I might put together a Bingo card for two categories:
Plays ISU needs to make but doesn't like dropped INTs, catch on the sideline, etc.
Disaster plays: pick 6, offsides on 1st and goal at the 1/2 yard line, and what have you.
I DO love how this current team has found different ways to win all season, but '05 in Lawrence wasn't THAT long ago.
Just wait, the Professor is going to come out a much more aggressive game plan than we normally see.
Gotta feeling he's gonna put more in the box to stuff the run and trust our excellent dbacks to play man coverage, especially if their #1 receiver really has declared to enter the portal.

Nah, KSU will go up 14-0 in the 1st quarter and then our defense starts figuring things out. We get it to 14-10 before K-State gets a late TD, going up 21-10 at the half. 2nd half is a slugfest with some weirdness, as you put it, but the Clones just can't get it done.
ISU - 31
KSU - 38
Some of you folks are just plain pathetic.
Yes, if we win and any one of those 3 (BYU, AZ, WVU) win we’re in.
