this is what's making me irrationally angry. if this exact game was instead vs someone like #24 Tennessee, reaction isn't nearly the same imo. we've owned isu my entire life until now.

I also think that we should have run a fake punt right before halftime. ISU just let almost a whole minute run off the clock and they were going to half-ass the return knowing that there was basically zero chance they were even going to try anything. Great time to catch them sleeping and possibly score on a cheap play.

The offensive play calling was terrible. It was much better with Klein. Maybe we should see if Jake Waters has any interest in being a coach or something.

hard no on jake waters, he's at his dream job

Ha! I had no idea. I'd take just about anyone that hasn't proven they are going to run 1 yard routes on 3rd and 3, though.

Let him call plays!

How about Skylar?  Is he still physically intact still?  If not, bring that guy on.

Klein was an exceptional OC, probably not five better than him in the entire country. Klieman isn't able to attract that talent externally to KSU.

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Why do we think Klein was worse at aTm? Just the SEC strength?

Being part of an entirely new coaching staff with a redshirt freshman starting at QB prob played a roll.

Yea Weigman was a boat anchor on his offense last year.  If he doesn't whip ass with Marcel Reed this year, he's going to have to answer some difficult questions.

I'm angry that Matt Campbell and all the flood aggie gingers get to gloat.

this is what's making me irrationally angry. if this exact game was instead vs someone like #24 Tennessee, reaction isn't nearly the same imo. we've owned isu my entire life until now.

If I'm thinking correctly, Klieman has now lost to flood aggie the same number of times that LHCBS did in his entire career.

it doesn't make it great but nicname states ties incorrectly. for instance in 2019 we were tied for 3rd, not 6th. 2023 was 4th, not 6th.

There is no way Klieman has lost 5 times to the boo clones, that's impossible.

One thing about being there in person that blew my gourd was that I’m sitting there at an outdoor stadium, dry as a bone and completely unaware it’s pouring down rain. Not sure how to feel about that. It’s like getting numbed up at the dentist. You hear the drill and you’re like instinctively I know this should hurt like hell. I guess what I’m saying is I couldn’t figure out why the ball was so dang slippery until it was pointed out to me that it was raining

Having a seat right next to the aisle sucked. Start to finish, at all times, there was just a steady stream of people going up and down. So weird to have a huge play happening and you can’t see bc a bunch of people are going to get another pint, including some girl who is making her 4th trip down to the concourse that quarter, but I think that’s just how they do it over there

I don’t think a healthy Edwards would have made that much of a difference. That guy needs a little space to be effective and he was not going to be getting any space or separation whatsoever

If you have 3rd and 1 and you turn it over on downs maybe you don’t deserve to win

We are their superbowl so whatever
