Iowa State had 19 seniors

on the team. 17 of them had 21 or more career starts. That was an experienced football team we beat tonight boys.

Iowa State fans seem to think is one of...

....their best and most senior teams of all time or a long time....they feel like they would have been a 10 win team if in the ACC. They are disappointed to lose to a Clemson team missing 28 starters, the worst team in 7 years, and having lost OC and DC. If there was ever a shot to beat Clemson then this was it. Fail.

This is going to be the same story with Cincinnati vs Alabama. Cincinnati's entire depth chart of starters are basically graduates, seniors and juniors with just 2 sophomores. Experience vs more nfl talent. Pulling for Cinci but that is like wanting to win the lottery.

LOL! Anybody can speculate and say stuff that can't be proven - so - meh on they would have won 10 games in the ACC.

But, good post regarding the 19 seniors.

Clemson on the other had was like a youth movement out there. Starters at WR were freshmen. 1 of which I don't think got on campus until July(the Georgia Collins).

This was their golden opportunity and as already said, "They blew it"!

Catch us when we are playing more indicative of how Clemson has been over the past several years and this is a blowout Iowa State! Even with your senior-laden team.

Very similar to Pitt except better defense and QB not quite as good a passer.

So, yes, they might have won the ACC.

would have been a good one. Their main weapon was their RB. But, Narduzi does not let you run. He puts his DB's in one on one all game even if you break a few. They sell out to stop the run. Then a K. Pickett and Mark Whipple score in bunches. That would have been a good game for sure if they were in the ACC.
Maybe one day they will be in the ACC. After Ok and Tex leaves the Big 12 man will they stick around the revamped Big 12?

That explains it.

They should probably recruit younger players.
