I will say this....If CPR can win @ Nebby with Jerome Tiller and Schwartz as our backfield and then go win @Texas after getting blasted by Utah and OU consecutively, I will never say there is a game we can't win, and I actually expect to beat Texas, KSU, Kansas, Tech and one of the games we're not supposed to compete in.

Have you seen Baylor's defense? It is attrocious. They are definitely beatable if you score in bunches and contain RG.

They are beatable, but I would think beating an average Texas team will be a lot easier than beating Baylor at their place. Texas might be the easiest game left on the schedule not counting my team (pretty much admitting the Jayhawks don't have a win left).

I'd really love to stick it to aTm this year. Give them a nice going away present before they become the SECs b!tch.

I think the Fightin Bill Snyder's are also pretty beatable this year, even in the "little apple".

Would just like to point out that a few years ago that a win over Texas was a pipe dream, and now many are putting it as our next win. I love that.

Texas
Baylor
Mizzou

Everyone is including Baylor. This game scares me with their QB AND playing on the road. They put up a lot of points on TCU earlier this year. I can't imagine TCU's Defense dropping off that much in one year, but I've been wrong before. Just ask my wife!!

I'm going with Texas, KState, and KU

I guess I'll go with Texas, A&M, and Kansas for the next three wins. Having said that, I think they can compete and have a shot at winning every single game remaining on the schedule with the exception of Oklahoma. I'm not suggesting they'll go 11-1, but just the fact that they can be competitive week in and week out is another step in the right direction. Personally, I've got Okie State circled as the CPR Annual Upset Bowl. Prime time on ESPN2 at home? Yeah, I'm sold.

we will get one road victory we weren't expected to. Uconn doesn't count, i figured we would have a chance in that game.

BYE
ISU 3-0

Texas (Home - Family Weekend)
Texas is also coming off a bye. They have a change at QB, who gets an extra week to get 1st string snaps. Even so, the crowd at JTS, along with the emotion of our undefeated team gets the job done.
ISU 4 - 0

Baylor (Floyd Casey Stadium)
Coming off an emotional win at home, ISU drops their first game on the road in a high-scoring, entertaining game.
ISU 4 - 1

Missouri (The Zou)
Missouri, fresh off getting beat up at Oklahoma and upset by Kansas, returns home with a chip on their shoulder. Iowa State loses their 2nd in a row.
ISU 4 - 2

Texas A&M (Home - Homecoming)
The Aggies will be fresh off a high octane offensive showdown in which they beat Baylor in overtime. Iowa State will be waiting, ready to pounce on the school that started the 2011 realignment madness. ISU wins this matchup of 4-2 teams convincingly.
ISU 5 - 2

Texas Tech (Jones AT&T Stadium)
6 - 1 Texas Tech beats ISU handily at home, a revenge of sorts for last years beat down by ISU in Jack Trice Stadium.
ISU 5 - 3

Kansas (Home)
Iowa State clinches bowl eligibility by easily dismissing the lowly Jayhawks.
ISU 6 - 3

BYE
ISU 6 - 3

Oklahoma State (Home - Friday Night)
Iowa State's second signature win fo 2011 (first being A&M) comes under the Friday Night lights after a bye week at home on national tv. The 10-0 Cowboys are staring down the barrel of a possible national title and looking ahead to their next game, in-state rivalry match-up against #1 Oklahoma. The Cowboys have a huge let down as Steele Jantz throws for 400 yrds and 4 touchdowns.
ISU 7-3

Oklahoma (Memorial Stadium)
Iowa State, feeling like an elite team coming off a big upset of #3 Oklahoma State on national TV, get humiliated at Memorial Stadium by the #1 Sooners.
ISU 7-4

Kansas State (Bill Snyder Stadium)
The 3-8 Wildcats are playing for pride, which on December 3 they don't have much to speak of. They haven't won a game since their showdown with Kansas on Oct 22, and haven't been competitive in any of their games. Their spirit is broken and they have already cleaned out their lockers prior to the game. ISU wins easily as the Cyclones are playing for a chance at a good bowl destination.
ISU 8 - 4

31 against Army
36 against Kansas (should have been 38)

2010:

52 against Texas Tech
30 against Nebraska

6 games under Paul Rhoads in which we hit the 30-point mark. 4 of them in regulation.

I'm thinking he meant Kansas State. MU and KU don't play until Nov 26th. MU plays KSU right before the Cyclones.

I honestly don't know if Kansas will win another game.

we can win any of our next 9 games except OSU, OU and A&M in my opinion. I think we get our nuts stomped in those games. We also will not likely be able to outscore baylor.

Not saying we are going to beat aTm, but that game is definitely a winnable game. If we can fill the Jack, the Aggies are going to hear the wrath of 50k+ fans for trying to **** with the conference. They have a huge target on their back for all of this realignment stuff.
