I'm done. Shutting it off and getting something productive done. Later...I'll still go to the remaining home games, but expect to be tortured and disappointed. This feels like the Walden era...

The defense apparently follows the belief that if you hit them hard enough, they'll probably just fall down. No need to wrap up.

Third time this year we play a team that commits zero penalties in the first 3 quarters.

Mizzou's fist touchdown would have been a 3 yard loss if not for a horrendous block in the back. But I'm sure we're doing it a lot more to get called for a hold and a block in the back compared to zero for our opponent.

We can criticize ISU's penalties but this is crap never having any penalties on the opposition. UConn and Baylor had tons of penalties against FCS teams, somehow they play flawless against ISU. Doubtful.

Mizzou had 7 penalties last week.
7 penalties the week before.
7 penalties in a 69-0 scrimmage against Western Illinois.
11 penalties against ASU
9 penalties against Miami OH.

ZERO today. It's kind of mathematically ridiculous that this happens every single week now. Every team we play with Big 12 refs gets penalized at 10% of their season average if at all.

I can't remember last time I saw an Iowa State team quit. The defense quit today. That last drive was one of the worst I have ever seen.

No excuse not to send out the backups here. Let guys like Barnett and Hollis get some snaps in a real game.

remember this might be CPR's best team. but the results may not show it due to how tough the league is.
This may be the worst effort that I gave seen since 2003. If we did not have three turnovers gained, it would definitely be the worst looking game of this century for us. We cannot even make one play.

Very true. We get none of the breaks and the other team gets all of them.
