Iowa State went up 14-9 only to see Golden Flashes score two unanswered TD's.

23-14 Kent.

ISU always has a hard time with KSU.

[Shout it out loud]

we knew ISU was gonna suck anyway

[Pittcat]

Chizik can't beat KSU!

[fatty fat fat]

We are his rival but not his team's   

[Huskerfan]

Just pathetic...and makes the Big 12 North look terrible.

Yea it does. Big 12 North just a punchline these days.  Its sad really.

[Pittcat]

The North will rise again!!

 

[KungFoooKitty]

This just makes me cry a little on the inside.  Seriously I don't care who is in the conference if you want to have any respect from the top to the bottom you have to beat up on crappy teams.  I for one submit my vote for kicking ISU out of the big 12.  It makes us all look bad and honestly if we ever have a good team that could win the national championship teams like ISU drag everybody down.

[ksuno1stunner]

Hey, we didn't lose to Illinois State last year!!!!!!

 

[Dirty Sanchez]

The Big 12 North struggling badly time and again with the South consistently spending their way into top spots only to falter is the best hope for any sort of NCAA mandated sports budget equalizing between teams and conferences.

But then I'm probably having too much faith in the NCAA getting something right.

ISU fan before 2nd half

Gene Chizik's confidence is contagious. He sounds as if he's been here before. For his first game, he's down 9-7 to a decent team with an unpredictable offense and he makes no excuses. That's why he's our head coach. I can't help but be excited about the second half after he gets in that locker room and rattles some cages. I expect a very different second half.

 

[opcat]

Haha.

 


ISU = 

ISU =

Actually, what makes the B12N look terrible are the top teams (or lackthereof) not the bottom teams.  The B12N has always had a crappy team or two, just as the South has.

That's a decent point. I'd like to see the conference be pretty solid top to bottom though, with even the weakest teams being able to handle teams like Kent State pretty easily. Iowa State is likely the worst team in the Big 12 North, but losing to a team like Kent State says loads about the job Chizek has ahead of him. Iowa State is a coach's graveyard.

That's what they told Bill Snyder about KSU.

[Maxell]

Snyder was fortuante to coach in a different day and age of college football. The pinnacle of his success came 10-15 years after his arrival when Osborne retired and Nebraska and Oklahoma went through major program transition. I don't think you'd find many people that would say the Big 8 was tougher than the Big 12 is. College football has also turned into a playground of unrealistic expectations and short term coaching tenures. Chizik won't have 10 years to turn ISU around. The problem I see is that ISU fans are a little like KSU fans-they think they're a 9-10 win a year team but they're not.

[michigancat]

What happened to the new helmets?

Sad ISU is going to outdraw us for their opener.  (not even close)

[steve dave]

playground of unrealistic expectations

That sums up Nebraska fairly accurately

Are you saying it took Bill Snyder 10 years to turn the program around?

[Maxell]

Yeah-how long did it take him to win a North title and a Big 12 championship?

I seriously doubt Snyder would have near the success today if he took a bottom of the barrell program at Kansas State and tried to turn it around in the Big 12. When he got in, nobody else was recruiting the JUCO players he had in his backyard. He spent the first 7 years in the Big 8 where Oklahoma fell off the wagon in 1991. His teams were hardly ever competitive against Osborne's teams. TO just smoked Snyder every time they ever matched up.

[steve dave]

LOL at the possibility that Bill Snyder would ever lose if he ran for Governor.

second season of big 12 he had the north.... were you expecting something more?
Championship took longer than it should have, but between 96 and 2003 the big 12 saw 3 seperate teams in the NC game.
