Ok. 1) Warren should not have touched the ball after fumble number 1. 2) that 10-12 seconds that didn't run off for Kstate was critics am in the semi-******** decision to not play for OT. If you have 30 seconds you definitely take the knee. 3) I thought the D did a helluva job down the stretch.

As for Rhoads, what we saw are inherent issues with his coaching. Is it time to move move on? Yes but I fear we may not do better with the glut of openings.

Re: Fire Paul Rhoads

If we fire Rhodes now , do we just forfeit the last game. The result will probably be the same regardless. However, as the season has shown the DC and OC need to go with Rhodes.

It's not his fault his players can't hold onto the ball.

We we should probably kick warren and lanning to the curb too.


Never mind the fact that ISU should have taken a knee (punting with a few seconds), but the second half adjustments all season have a complete joke. Special teams have been a joke too.

Fire him. Today. Tomorrow. Get it over with. Fire Wally and the special teams coordinator as well. Whoever is left can coach against WVU. Hell, forfeit the da@@ game for all I care. Couldn't care less about watching next week anyway.

What pisses me off more than anything is him jumping around like a damn idiot with 1:30 left on the clock. Instead of, you know, thinking about whether you have the time to kneel it three times, he's celebrating like a fool. Also, not sure that sends the "keep your composure you haven't won yet" message a coach should be sending.

Also, what in the name of all that is good an holy were we doing that last 40 seconds? Either take your timeouts and try or score or kneel. Having your fumble-prone QB run around with 10 seconds left-- less than optimal.

On a positive note I made a bet with the wife at halftime that we'd find a way to lose...

Overtime should have been the WORST case scenario before that first fumble. Un-*******-believable

I really feel for the players. That was **** poor play calling and game management on both sides of the ball.

Warren gets hurt and makes a game changing play on the same play. Too bad. Kid plays so hard and is our best player (with Lazard). I just hope this isn't the kind of play that sticks with him.
