What's your confidence level of beating UNI in the first game?

Would be the third loss in three years to a 1AA, which is unspeakable in this day of college football. I go back and forth on who the better team is though. I really dont know at this point if we win this game.

50%. If ISU loses to UNI, Rhoads should be fired immediately after the game.

No confidence at all. We're lucky it isn't already three in a row, as SJ had to pull a lucky horseshoe out of his *** just to beat UNI back in 2011. Everyone remembers the fourth quarter of that 20-19 game, I hope?

I would say less than 50% chance of winning. Probably 40-45%....at home....against an FCS school.

Ugh.

Will the O-Line look better? Will the D-Line look better? If the answer to those questions is yes, than 75%. If the answer to those questions is no, 25%.

Is zero confidence the lowest I can go? Where are people getting this level of confidence from?

Never doubt the power of Iowa State Athletics.

This is the type of crap I hate. People that either have a blind hatred for the team or who are uneducated about things.

When have we ever played UNI in back to back years. It has at least been a long time. So why would you think that the 2011 game would make three straight already. We beat Western Illinois by a ton. If I remember correctly or was the first game Sam played in as well.

Is losing to a FCS team acceptable? No absolutely not. The problem is we always seem to play some of te rougher FCS teams. We are already one of the more prone teams to lose then we add to that by getting stuck with the teams that are most likely to beat an FBS team.

I think he meant lose to the same FCS team 3 times in a row.
